“JD’s boundaryless retail strategy is to integrate online and offline retail, enabling customers to buy whatever they want, whenever they want, wherever they want.” said Zisheng Yang, head of Offline Business, JD Home Appliances. “Equipped with the most advanced technologies and state of the art products, JD E-SPACE provides consumers not only shopping convenience but also an immersive and interactive experience.”

Customers also have the chance to experiment with some new technologies at unprecedented connectivity speeds, because JD E-SPACE will be the country’s only major store to offer blazing-fast 5G network coverage. The store also features dynamic price tags to ensure store prices are aligned with online prices, QR codes for consumers to place orders instantly, and robots to guide customers and introduce products.

After experimenting with the products, consumers can scan a code to buy and have items delivered to their homes by JD Logistics, usually within 24 hours, or they can complete their purchase onsite and carry home in-stock products immediately. Consumers can also enjoy the same high-quality after-sales service they get when shopping on JD.com.
