CHONGQING (CQNEWS) -- Recently, the delivery warehouse of the Bear Grandma’s Garden “Liangjiang – Cloud Market” was opened in Liangjiang New Area, Chongqing, and hundreds of kinds of vegetables, fruits, poultry meat, aquatic products, eggs and milk lower than the average market price were offered to the public, which means, in addition to admiring the beauty of flowers, buying flowers, enjoying parent-child time and the garden scenery, you also can “get a bargain” at the market in Bear Grandma’s Garden in the future.

The delivery warehouse of the “Liangjiang – Cloud Market” is composed of two business sectors, namely fresh food and snacks, involving hundreds of product categories and covering a total area of more than 2,000 square meters.

“After the epidemic outbreak this year, many agricultural products have been unmarketable, leading to some difficulties in the production selling and life of farmers. We hope to practice the poverty alleviation through consumption and benefiting the people through public benefit activities by carrying out the “Cloud Market” activity,” said Ying Bochao, person in charge of operations of the Bear Grandma’s Garden “Liangjiang – Cloud Market”.

The delivery warehouse has no cashier. Citizens can realize the self-delivery and self-settlement via WeChat and Alipay, or choose online shopping at home and logistics delivery. The offline scene and online e-commerce are connected through offline experience and online “Cloud Market”.

The epidemic outbreak has promoted the accelerating online development of trade, business and service industries in Liangjiang New Area, and Bear Grandma’s Garden is just one of the cases.

In early March this year, IKEA App went live to support citizens to purchase furniture online. The new e-commerce mode and various promotion activities enliven the atmosphere in the IKEA store. “At present, the number of our customers has recovered to the level before the epidemic outbreak,” said a worker from the Market Department of Chongqing IKEA.

The “contactless service” is not alone. At present, many automobile retail enterprises in Liangjiang New Area have launched a variety of services to attract consumers, such as to show cars online, sell cars through live streaming and show cars via VR. 

As the main “battlefield” for Chongqing economic development, Liangjiang New Area focuses on the development of online economy and holding live streaming e-commerce marketing activities to improve the economic quality and efficiency. (Translated by Huang Juan, Fathom Language Limited)
