A few hours after a key exemption from US costs expired on Friday, the Chinese electronic commerce site Temu announced that it reviewed its shipping model, sending all US sales sellers.
“All sales in the United States are now controlled through local distributors, with orders full of the interior of the country,” said Temu spokesman on Friday. “Temu has actively recruited American distributors to succeed on the platform. “
Change is a primary replacement for the platform. Temu, and other Chinese electronic commerce sites such as Shein and Aliexpress, in the past they had used exemption minimis, as we know, to flood the United States of products at ultra basic costs. And while the president of the United States, Donald Trump, says he needs his new costs to assist production to the United States, Temu resolution shows how giant corporations can escape this call and see other tactics.
The minimis failure allowed the goods of the goods to value $ 800 or less enter the United States as a franchise of rights, inspections of jumps and long documents. Chinese electronic commerce sites have undoubtedly taken the maximum merit of the exemption, flooding the US market with ultra lobes. But with Trump applying punishment costs for all Chinese imports, millions of Americans who have become dependent on these sites can locate those less affordable assets.
The vast majority of Shein and Temu products are manufactured in China and matter to the United States, so costs are so cheap.
The new jargon of the Temu corporations would possibly seem to be in Trump alley. But it is not because a product is sent to consumers of a “local warehouse” that is manufactured in the United States.
Sites like Temu and Shein have been building their portfolio of U. S. warehouses for years to decrease shipping times. Last year, the Biden administration also began criticizing the de minimis exemption, the Chinese sender feeling a transparent replacement of the atmosphere.
Shein started stocking goods, shipping in bulk in U. S. warehouses. U. S. As far back as last year, Chris Tang, a professor of global source chain control at the University of California, Los Angeles, has said in the past.
Bloomberg reported in February that Temu had to check its Chinese source chain, asking supplier factories to send bulk parts to US stores. When those articles are exhausted, it is not transparent if they will remain exhausted for US consumers, or if the new pieces will be the subject of the costs Trump has put in China.
For now, this means that foreign manufacturing products are reaching the doors of Americans through US distributors. Temu publicly lists its production partners.
Tang said Friday that if there was a shortage, Temu has few options. The company can rearrange its products, which would charge time and money. He may begin to offer “substitutes” or recommendations for similar products in stock.
Temu to start expanding safe costs last week. But the company in a press release refuted that these are higher costs.
“TEMU costs for U. S. consumers unchanged as the platform transitions to a local realization model,” the company said in a press release.
Temu says in his that there are no import prices or additional prices in the delivery of pieces bought in local warehouses. In social networks, users say that the pieces are already exhausted.
A Reddit user said Friday, around 60 of the items in his basket were not available.
You do not have some articles TEMU locally, he told another user, writing that his virtual cart of more than three hundred articles has decreased in pairs. In addition to this, the user said that more prices had been implemented unless a “local order” totals at least $ 30.
“Temu left!” What I saw today absolutely convinced me!”They wrote. ” Local vendors, despite acquiring safe items in advance in bulk, don’t have all those parts that interested me. “
