Summary
In 2025, the cross-border electricity market was characterized by a “head platform monopoly + regional platform rise”. Integrated platforms such as amazon, temu and others remain the mainstream choice, but need to address high competition and policy risks; regional platforms such as mercado libre, hopee have been home-grown engines of growth; and social electricians such as tiktok shop and shein have recast consumption scenes to suit innovative sellers. It is proposed to adapt the layout dynamically, depending on product characteristics, financial strength and operational capacity, using a combination of “1 core platform + n supplementary channels”, with attention to the new policy of the general customs administration (e. G. Simplified repatriation for cross-border electric operators). Choices are more important than efforts, and precise matching of platform characteristics can break out of global competition。
