We hope to leverage JD’s overseas business strength to promote more premier Chinese brands to ‘go out’ with us,” said Chris Cui, head of global sales at JD.com. “We would like to take the opportunity at CIFTIS to introduce JD’s business model and ecosystem to more overseas markets, driving more Chinese brands to go global and providing more high-quality products to customers all over the world.”
