Americans Flock to Temu for Low Prices, But Trust Amazon More
8 months ago
Temu, a U.S.-based e-commerce platform owned by Chinese giant PDD Holdings, has gained popularity due to ultralow prices, with nearly 60% of U.S. online shoppers making purchases in the past year. However, only 6% trust Temu more than Amazon. Despite its growth, Temu faces scrutiny over its Chinese ties, potential forced labor, and reliance on a trade rule that eliminates duties. Temu is exploring new markets for future growth while Amazon focuses on delivery speed and consumer trust.
