The company will also help Guiyang speed up economic and social development and industrial upgrading and optimization.

Zhao Guoqing said that the Guiyang-Jingdong e-commerce industrial park will radiate its influence into Southeast Asia thanks to the unique regional advantages in Guiyang.

"As an ecological city, Guiyang is more suited to the development of e-commerce. Compared with physical stores, online stores conserve energy and protect the environment, especially in terms of energy, logistics and manual work. This is why 360buy chose Guiyang," said Zhao.
