AliExpress is a China-based online retail store owned by the Alibaba Group, specializing in selling products at wholesale prices to merchants (B2B) and individuals (B2C). Launched in 2010, it consists of small companies in China and other locations, such as Singapore, offering products to international buyers online. It is the most popular e-commerce site in Russia and ranks in the top ten in Brazil. AliExpress makes it easy for small businesses in China to sell to customers worldwide.
Initially, AliExpress started as a portal for business-to-business transactions. It has since expanded to include buying and selling services from companies to consumers and between consumers. AliExpress is currently available in several languages: Arabic, English, Spanish, Dutch, French, Italian, German, Polish, Portuguese, Bahasa, and Russian. The English version of the service is automatically offered to clients outside China, along with the other mentioned languages.
