JD.com and Costco China launched a strategic partnership, naming JD.com the sole official e-commerce platform for Costco in the country. This collaboration integrates Costco’s curated products with JD.com’s nationwide supply chain and logistics infrastructure. Consumers across China can now receive Costco orders as quickly as the same day.
The official flagship store began trial operations in late May with approximately 700 products. The store attracted over 30 million visitors during its first month. It gained nearly 200,000 followers in the same period. High demand for Kirkland Signature items led to rapid sell-outs and multiple restocks.
Customers can shop on the JD.com platform without a Costco membership card. This partnership expands Costco's reach beyond its physical warehouses by leveraging JD.com's established online presence.
