We are excited to report on the recent announcement of a strategic alliance between South Korea's retail giant Shinsegae Group and Chinese e-commerce behemoth Alibaba International. This partnership aims to create a joint venture that will combine the strengths of Gmarket and AliExpress Korea, two prominent e-commerce platforms in the region. The new entity, valued at $4 billion, will be a 50:50 joint venture between the two companies, with Gmarket and AliExpress Korea serving as its subsidiaries. This alliance is set to reshape the South Korean e-commerce landscape and drive growth for both companies.
