CHINA is home to US e-commerce giant Amazon.com's four biggest merchant bases, according to new research, reports Hong Kong's South China Morning Post.
New research shows the significant role that the world's second-largest economy continues to play in the global supply chain despite geopolitical tensions.
Shenzhen, a technology and factory hub next to Hong Kong, leads the pack with 102,588 sellers registered on Amazon, collectively generating US$35.3 billion revenue annually, according to US e-commerce service provider Smartscout.
In second place is Guangzhou, capital of Guangdong, followed by the shoemaking hub of Putian in southeastern Fujian province, and Dongguan, another Guangdong city.
'Shenzhen's prominence is largely due to its position as a manufacturing powerhouse, allowing sellers direct access to production and supply chains,' Smartscout said in its report.
