What Attendees are Saying

Definitely for us, Alibaba Ecosystem is one of the biggest opportunities that we’ve had worldwide and being here today is a massive step. When we launched the brand, we’re really excited about the Chinese market, I think the fact that the Chinese consumers love Australian brands is going to be really important for us.

Currently we’ve got a Tmall franchise store and the biggest part about having a franchise store is to ensure authenticity. There are some consumers who don’t feel comfortable buying from third party platforms, where they’re not sure the product is authentic, so they tend to buy from the Tmall store.
