HANGZHOU, China, Jan. 28, 2022 — Yunji Inc. ("Yunji" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: YJ), a leading membership-based social e-commerce platform, announced that it will continue to provide its e-commerce service to its platform members during the China Ministry of Commerce’s 2022 Online Lunar New Year Shopping Festival event ("the Event") and related holiday shopping campaigns.
Yunji’s theme for this year’s Event is food. Among Yunji’s private label food products, Li Batian’s sausage, Mars Chef’s beef, Baiyueshan’s wolfberry puree, and autumn pear grease were all heavily promoted by the Company and successfully satisfied user demand for Lunar New Year gifts for relatives and friends. The high repurchase rate for products in the food category demonstrates the popularity of the Company’s private label products.
During the event, platform members utilized Yunji’s platform, app, and WeChat mini-program to not only purchase household goods for their own families, but also to send holiday gifts to their friends and families. Yunji further extended its merchandise selection by launching Lunar New Year gift boxes and saver packs that were well-received by its members. Although Yunji’s Event was themed around food, other product categories such as beauty and health care, maternity and childcare, home furnishing, digital devices, and apparel also proved popular with members.
In the year since they were launched, Yunji’s private label food brands have sold extremely well. Baiyueshan wolfberry puree is one of the Company’s private label food brands and was launched less than six months ago. The popularity of the puree is shown by the fact that half of the members who bought the product have since repurchased it. Within the food category, members in the "mothers" user segment are some of the most enthusiastic repurchasers of Yunji’s private label brands.
Shanglue Xiao, Founder and CEO of Yunji, commented, "We are delighted to see how popular our private label food brand products are with our platform members. Yunji is the go-to platform for nutritious and high-quality food at a reasonable price, especially during the Lunar New Year Shopping Festival. We are dedicated to further developing our membership-based social e-commerce model and our private label food brands, thus further promoting repeat purchases by our platform members."
