Chinese social commerce giant plans to increase investment in global markets in 2024
Markets such as the US, Canada, and Australia are expected to report strong growth over the next three to four years, and Chinese social commerce companies plan to increase investment in these markets in the medium term.
For example, TikTok has been aggressively expanding in the U.S. over the past few quarters. This trend is expected to continue further into 2024 as the company looks to develop its logistics network in the American market to increase the platform's attractiveness among buyers and sellers. In the US, TikTok has set an ambitious goal of increasing its gross merchandise value tenfold in 2024. In 2023, TikTok has emerged as one of the major players in the US market, with significant growth exceeding Metaplatform. Further investments in these markets will strengthen the company's position in the medium term.
Other social commerce platforms in the region also expect to increase their investments in regional and global markets over the next three to four years. This will foster innovation and a competitive environment in fast-growing sectors in the short to medium term.
Innovative startups leverage artificial intelligence to gain market share in fast-growing social commerce space
India is expected to see more platforms adopting new-age technologies such as artificial intelligence to facilitate a better shopping experience for online buyers. This trend will further support the medium-term growth of the social commerce industry in the Indian market.
Innovative social commerce startup Book My Makeup has launched an AI-driven platform offering beauty services. Through new-age technology, the platform has introduced features such as augmented reality makeup trials, customized beauty recommendations, and virtual consultations. These features are part of the company's strategy to make beauty services more engaging, personalized and convenient for users.
The publisher expects more such innovative startups to emerge in the Indian social commerce market in the future. This will foster a competitive environment for the sector and at the same time drive industry growth over the next three to four years.
Companies form strategic alliances to circumvent social commerce ban in Southeast Asia region
In September 2023, Indonesia announced a ban on e-commerce on social media networks. The regulatory process was part of a strategy to protect offline sellers and marketplaces from predatory pricing on social media platforms. The ban was a severe blow to TikTok, which was considering Indonesia as one of its major social commerce markets.
However, TikTok entered into a strategic partnership with GoTo in December 2023. The partnership is part of the social commerce platform's strategy to avoid bans in Indonesia. As part of the deal, Tokopedia and TikTok Shop will be combined into his expanded Tokopedia entity. TikTok has committed to investing US$1.5 billion in the entity over a period of time. This investment means TikTok will have a controlling interest of 75.01% in the entity. The shopping functionality available within the TikTok app will now be operated and maintained by an expanded entity in Indonesia.
TikTok partnered with GoTo to avoid a ban by Indonesian authorities, but other social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp have also applied for social commerce permits in the country.
