The focus of the negotiations centered on cooperation in the realm of cross-border e-commerce.
The company, with two offices, operates both offline and online formats. The visited center primarily conducts business offline, featuring a vending machine that sells frozen Thai Monthong durian pulp. Shoppers can use a QR Code to open a window, select products, and the machine will calculate the weight and price of the chosen items. The company also manages online e-commerce through Chinese platforms such as PinDuoDuo, TaoBao, JD.com, etc. In addition to frozen Monthong durian pulp, the online platform offers various durian-related products like keychains, pillows, and squishies.
