PROSPECTS

The boom of e-commerce hinders the development of direct selling

Direct selling registered a deceleration in current value growth in 2017, and this is expected to continue in the forecast period. The emergence and rapid growth of e-commerce was a key factor which greatly impacted the whole direct selling channel in China.

Lower market entry barriers for international players set to boost development

The direct selling regulation was revised by the Chinese government in 2016. This revision cancelled the requirement for at least three years’ experience of direct selling in overseas markets for international companies that hope to enter China in the Free Trade Zones located in Shanghai, Guangdong, Tianjin and Fujian.

Consumer healthcare and beauty and personal care products remain the most popular

Accounting for the highest value sales in 2017, consumer healthcare and beauty and personal care products remained the most popular in direct selling. The rising acceptance of healthcare products and demand for personal skin care products are reasons for the continued positive performances of these two product categories.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Weak performance for international players

The leading international players saw weak performances in 2017. Perfect (China) and Amway (China) both registered decreases in their value sales, whilst some local companies showed better performances.

New products and bonus policies help to boost the performance of direct selling companies

In order to stimulate sales, direct selling companies are taking measures to increase their competitiveness, given the fact that their products are not as attractive to consumers. Amway (China) introduced a new energy drink named XS in September 2017, with a selling price of CNY12.
