The Dada Group, China’s leading local on-demand delivery and retail platform, says JD Daojia (JDDJ), its on-demand retail platform, has released its “Sales Report on Consumption Trends During Chinese New Year 2021,” which compiles official sales data on the platform from January 16 to February 4.
The iPhone 11, iPhone 12, and Huawei Mate 40 Pro were among the most popular devices. Chinese New Year is a traditional holiday that typically drives widespread travel as people return home for family reunions.
This year, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many residents have chosen to stay home and stay put. Instead of going out, consumers are placing orders for the festivities online to deliver to family, and Dada’s one-hour delivery is streamlining the process. JDDJ’s data shows that the number of orders that users placed from a city other than their own was twice that of the comparable period last year, led by Beijing, Shenzhen and Guangzhou.
