The partnership, which began in February, leverages JD.com’s advanced supply chain and logistics network to provide a one-stop solution for Korean merchants. JD.com provides comprehensive support from business registration and compliance to marketing and shipping, effectively removing traditional hurdles for international brands.
“Cross-border trade between China and South Korea has evolved into a total ecosystem partnership,” said a representative from JD Cross-Border. “Our approach combines direct procurement and a robust marketplace with advanced logistics advantages, offering emerging and premium Korean products a trustworthy gateway to the Chinese market.”
11Street noted, “Partnering with JD Cross-Border allows us to bridge the gap between Korean retailers and Chinese consumers, ensuring that our brands can grow efficiently while maintaining the high quality and service our customers expect.”
By introducing top-tier Korean cosmetics, food, and baby products, the arrival of 11Street reinforces JD.com’s position as the go-to destination for high-quality global goods. This initiative further advances JD.com’s “10 Billion Giga-Growth Plan” launched in 2025, which aims to introduce 1,000 new international brands to China over three years and reach an absolute sales target of RMB 10 billion (USD $1.4 billion), significantly expanding the variety of imported goods accessible to Chinese families.

JD MALL will draw on JD.com’s robust supply chain capabilities, digital operations expertise and experience-led retail model, while fully aligning with local compliance standards and consumer preferences. Through our local operations, we will bring high-quality products, innovative retail experiences and great service to Hong Kong consumers, while contributing to the continued diversification and upgrading of the local retail sector.”
JD MALL will continue to tailor its product selection, pricing, shopping experiences and services to local customer needs, while further developing its technology-led retail format in the city. It will also further develop omnichannel operations in Hong Kong and work closely with JD.com’s wider business ecosystem, including JINGDONG Logistics, Kai Bo Supermarket and JINGDONG Property.
JD.com has long regarded Hong Kong as a strategic market. To date, JD.com’s cumulative investment in Hong Kong has exceeded HKD 35 billion, with its retail, logistics, technology, healthcare and property businesses established and operating in the city. At the same event, JD.com also announced plans to on-board 1,000 leading local and international brands, open 200 offline retail locations, and support the creation of 10,000 jobs in Hong Kong in the next three years.
