With more Internet users than any other nation on the planet, China’s e-commerce is booming, but obstacles remain before the full business potential can be unleashed, analysts said.
China’s online population is now at 220 million, Beijing-based research firm BDA China said late last week, overtaking the United States as the world’s number one, highlighting the growth opportunities in the huge Asian market.
Fifty-five million of China’s Internet users shopped online last year for a total turnover of 59.4 billion yuan (8.25 billion dollars), according to the China Internet Research Centre in Beijing.
