Popular Chinese ecommerce middleman, PandaBuy, has been on the forefront of fashion trends, providing for counterfeit goods. PandaBuy works by connecting customers with Chinese suppliers who offer a wide variety of products. The platform provides customers with a user-friendly interface where they can browse through different categories and products, compare prices, and place orders. The suppliers then ship the products directly to the customers, usually within a few weeks. One of the most significant benefits of using PandaBuy is that it provides customers with access to a vast selection of products. The platform has an extensive network of suppliers, which means that customers can find products that are not available in their local markets. Additionally, the prices offered by PandaBuy suppliers are often lower than what customers would pay in their local markets.
Since establishing back in 2017, PandaBuy's popularity has skyrocketed. However, earlier in April 2024, Chinese authorities raided various PandaBuy warehouses after 16 brands reported legal action for copyright infringement. Some of these brands included, Nike, adidas, and Supreme. It has been estimated that millions of packages were confiscated, as well as over 200,000 pairs of sneakers.
