Around September this year, e-commerce platforms received two or three times as many inquiries from Peru as in the previous whole year.Due to the advantages of delivering goods to Europe and the United States, the platform has been focused on the traditional European and American markets.Because the South American area clears customs difficult, the freight is high, often encounters the freight to return the high circumstance than the payment for goods, is the cold line all the time so.

Peru is the third largest country in South America and the sixth largest economy in Latin America. Like Brazil, Latin America's largest economy, Peru's main export destination and importer is China.

 

Data from the e-commerce platform shows that inquiries and transactions from Central and South America have increased significantly this year.In November, the number of active buyers in Central and South America was up 80 per cent year on year and the value of transactions was up 240 per cent year on year.

A large number of buyers have begun to purchase online.

Cross-border e-commerce also gives more non-traditional trade buyers and small order buyers the opportunity to directly buy goods from China's factories.According to the professionals, most of the Peruvian customers who come to inquire are buyers who do not have a forwarder relationship in China, among which a small customer purchased $200 of Christmas gifts.
