MotionPoint\u2019s seasoned perspective on e-commerce and international fulfillment was featured in a recent Wall Street Journal<\/i> article.<\/p>\n

The story<\/a>, which focused on FedEx\u2019s e-commerce expansions into China and Japan, showcased the critical role fulfillment and international shipping now plays in global e-commerce.<\/p>\n

Western companies like FedEx are smartly expanding to address this growing need in emerging markets. But this growth doesn\u2019t come without challenges.<\/p>\n

\u201cFedEx will likely face tough competition in the Chinese market from merchants used to selling their wares on online marketplaces, then shipping them cheaply to the U.S. for final delivery by the U.S. Postal Service,\u201d the story said.<\/p>\n

Charles Whiteman, MotionPoint\u2019s senior vice president of Client Services, was quoted in the story. He spoke on the topic of pricing, and how shipping cost impacts consumers\u2014and their buying decisions.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you\u2019re serving your product into a really competitive market like China, Japan or Germany\u2014mature markets\u2014and you\u2019ve got a big shipping surcharge,\u201d he explained, \u201cyou\u2019re not going to be nearly as successful as if you\u2019re shipping into a market that doesn\u2019t have options.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
