Alibaba sets US$142 million promotion to waive delivery fees for Hong Kong’s Taobao users

Quick Summary:

Delivery charges on the city’s Taobao users will be waived for each order that costs more than HK$99 during this fourth quarter.

Alibaba decided to launch this Hong Kong promotion in October because the fourth quarter is always the company’s peak sales season, according to CK Chan, head of Hong Kong and Macau operations at Tmall Taobao World.

Taobao users can pick up their orders at more than 800 delivery stations across the city operated by Alibaba’s Cainiao Smart Logistics Network, the company said.
