JD.com (also known as JINGDONG) has announced an expansion in its apparel business with an additional investment of RMB 1 billion aimed at establishing JD Fashion as a leading destination for stylish global apparel.

This initiative aims to introduce a variety of stylish new products to JD's customers, featuring simultaneous launches by thousands of brands on JD's online platform. These launches will be bolstered by enhanced marketing initiatives and will leverage JD Fashion's expansion into new realms through partnerships with celebrities, acclaimed designers, and innovative cross-industry collaborations. Central to these efforts is JD's Little Magic Cube channel, an innovative marketing tool focused on accelerating product launches. By leveraging the Little Magic Cube and external marketing resources, JD will help brands effectively engage target audiences and reduce the time-to-market for new products.

Additionally, as part of this investment, JD.com's '10-billion-yuan Discount' program will offer daily opportunities for customers to enjoy a RMB 30 discount on purchases of RMB 300 or more.

In collaboration with influential media platforms such as VOGUE and Xiaohongshu (also known as RED), JD Fashion will also unveil upcoming fall and winter fashion trends on September 6 to provide fashion-savvy shoppers with a rich selection of stylish choices and content, enriching their shopping journey.
