Celebrating The Power of Partnerships: Who’s Leading the Next Wave of Retail Commerce?

TORONTO, Feb. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — As the e-commerce landscape grows ever more crowded, capturing and retaining customers’ attention has become even more challenging. Winning customers is no longer about competing on price alone — it’s about crafting unique products, building distinctive brands, and connecting with consumers on a deeper level. As e-commerce continues to surge, businesses must navigate fierce competition and find strategies that truly set them apart.

In this interconnected world, isolated efforts are no longer enough. Success now depends on collaboration — between brands, technology, and ecosystems. Tapping into the power of partnerships has become the key to unlocking innovation and driving localized growth in the ever-evolving e-commerce landscape.

From Product Creators to Ecosystem Builders

Today’s merchants are no longer just sellers — they’ve become architects of a global business ecosystem. While traditional commerce platforms still matter, the rise of independent online stores has unlocked new opportunities for brands to connect with customers on their own terms.

This evolution brings its own set of challenges, from inventory management to marketing, payments, and fulfillment. One company that is addressing these issues head-on is Shoplazza, a global leader in retail commerce technology. By combining cutting-edge technology with a strong partner ecosystem, Shoplazza enables merchants to streamline operations and focus on what truly matters: building distinctive brands and delivering outstanding customer experiences.

In line with this vision, Shoplazza hosts its annual Shoplazza Awards to celebrate merchants who leverage their brand strength and customer insights to successfully expand into both cross-border and local markets. The awards also spotlight exceptional partners recognized for their technical innovation, deep understanding of merchant needs, and close collaboration with the platform. The 2024 winners, announced recently, exemplify how collaboration fuels success and reshapes the future of commerce.

Empowering Brands to Forge Deeper Consumer Connections

A strong brand is essential for online businesses to succeed, as is the ability to forge meaningful connections with consumers. Achieving this requires a deep understanding of customer needs, a focus on brand building, and strong platform support. The 2024 Shoplazza Awards highlighted merchants who excelled in these areas.

One such company is MUJOSH, a fashion eyewear brand that used Shoplazza’s omnichannel solutions to integrate its online and offline operations. This collaboration resulted in simplifying the customer journey, which in turn drove brand loyalty. Similarly, ICOICE, a DTC fast-fashion lens brand, customized platform features to introduce a subscription model and enhance its sustainability-focused image, ultimately boosting retention and brand value.

Meanwhile, Vitamin World, a 47-year-old health and wellness brand, partnered with Shoplazza to overcome system integration challenges, resulting in an impressive 247.3% year-over-year GMV growth during Black Friday 2024. This success is setting a high bar for what traditional businesses can achieve when they embrace digital solutions.

These brands are an example of how consumer-centric strategies, supported by Shoplazza’s tailored solutions, are driving success in today’s competitive market. Through this partnership, they’re not only building lasting connections with customers but also achieving sustained growth and setting new industry standards.

Partners Driving Ecosystem Innovation

Teaming up with strategic partners expands the capabilities of any platform or solution, providing sellers with a wider array of tools and expertise. By collaborating with key industry players, platforms can help merchants streamline operations, improve customer experiences, and drive innovation within their own business ecosystems. These partnerships create a synergistic effect, where the combined value of each player exceeds the sum of its individual contributions, helping businesses scale more effectively and stay ahead of the competition.

With a robust partner ecosystem, Shoplazza provides sellers with the tools and solutions they need to thrive in an increasingly competitive market. By collaborating with a diverse range of partners, the platform offers merchants access to resources that drive success and innovation. For example, PlumSpace, an app development company, introduced over 40 tools on the Shoplazza App Store in 2024, offering solutions that streamline operations, from traffic analysis to marketing automation. This enables merchants to optimize their workflows and focus on scaling their businesses.

Similarly, Narivex, a global digital marketing platform, brought localized expertise to streamline TikTok onboarding, fueling growth for global brands looking to tap into emerging markets. Meanwhile, payment leaders like Mastercard and Payoneer launched innovative solutions that simplified payment processes, boosted conversion rates, and optimized cross-border transactions, further enhancing the merchant experience. 

These partners not only contributed cutting-edge technologies but also exemplified the power of collaboration with Shoplazza, reinforcing how strong partnerships can propel innovation and create greater value for merchants. 

Collaboration at the Heart of Growth

The synergy between merchants, technology providers, and platforms highlights the strength of an interconnected ecosystem. By aligning merchant needs with partner expertise, businesses can foster collaboration, enabling everyone to thrive. Shoplazza is a prime example of how a platform can leverage its partnerships to help merchants overcome the challenges they face, fostering innovation and accelerating growth. As the retail commerce landscape continues to evolve, strategic partnerships will be key to unlocking new opportunities and shaping the future of global commerce.

YIWU, China, Feb. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On February 9, the 12th day of the Lunar New Year, Yiwu International Trade City marked the grand opening after 2025 Chinese new year, warmly welcoming global business leaders. In preparation for the occasion, 75,000 merchants at Yiwu International Trade City have meticulously curated an array of popular new products, ready to be unveiled for international visitors from around the world.

Yiwu International Trade City Opening Celebrations
Yiwu International Trade City Opening Celebrations

Based on its monitoring data, DeepSeek summarized that on the first day of the market opening, offline visitor traffic surpassed 235,000, reflecting a 2.6% year-on-year increase. Leaders from the Jinhua Municipal Party Committee and Government, the Yiwu Municipal Party Committee and Government visited the market to express their support for the development of the “World Supermarket.” Their presence included distributing Spring Festival couplets, “Fu” characters, and red envelopes to merchants. The opening celebrations reached a global audience through Chinagoods, the official online platform of Yiwu Commodities City, which livestreamed the event and offered digital red envelopes and blessings. The broadcast garnered significant international attention, attracting 1.558 million views and interactions worldwide.

Most merchants saw a strong start to the year. Cai Peifen, a toy merchant in District 1, remarked, “A new toy we just launched sold over 100 cartons on the opening day.” Ma Beiya, a wig merchant in District 3, shared, “Even while I was celebrating the New Year back home, overseas customers were already reaching out and placing orders online—there was no downtime during the Spring Festival.”Similarly, He Lihong, a packaging industry merchant in District 2, noted that their packaging factory remained fully operational throughout the holiday, busy fulfilling orders.

This year, foreign buyers have arrived at the Yiwu market earlier and in greater numbers than ever before. Anas Sabouni, a buyer from Syria, shared, “Before the market opened, I took a trip to Shanghai and Hangzhou to immerse myself in the traditional Chinese New Year celebrations. As soon as the market opened today, I returned to make my purchases. I mainly focus on toys and perfumes. Last year, I bought around 500 containers, and this year, I plan to purchase even more!”

A strong start is rooted in past achievements. During the 2025 Spring Festival, the “Yiwu Treasure Year” initiative, jointly launched by the Yiwu Municipal Administration of Culture and Tourism and Zhejiang China Commodities City Group, delivered impressive results. According to monitoring data from DeepSeek, during the “Yiwu Treasure Year” event, daily visitor traffic at Yiwu International Trade City peaked at over 300,000, a 10%-15% increase compared to 2024. The estimated transaction volume is expected to exceed 50 billion yuan, reflecting a year-on-year growth of more than 20%, driven largely by global buyers stocking up and the recovery of domestic consumption.

Chinese New Year product purchases on the Chinagoods platform have surged by 26% year-on-year. In celebration of the Year of the Snake in 2025, the Yiwu market has introduced a series of snake-themed products, including cultural and creative gifts, decorations, and more, with estimated sales expected to exceed 5 billion yuan. Additionally, products incorporating traditional Chinese cultural elements, such as hanfu and intangible cultural heritage crafts, have become popular favorites among both domestic and international buyers.

Foreign friends, regardless of age or background, have shown a deep appreciation for Chinese New Year products and traditions. This was vividly showcased in the micro-musical video named “A Chinese New Year Across the Seas”, released the day before Chinese New Year’s Eve in 2025. Produced by Zhejiang China Commodities City Group, the musical authentically highlights how Chinese-made products reach global audiences through the Yiwu market. In the video, a Yiwu businesswoman uses the “Spring Festival Gift Box” from Yiwu Selection to send New Year goods to friends and family worldwide, symbolizing not just the joy of shared life moments but also the warmth of Chinese culture crossing oceans. The video brings to life the saying, “Yiwu brings the world the flavor of Chinese New Year.” Following its release, it received widespread praise and was shared by official media outlets.

As highlighted by international friends in the video, “Yiwu’s New Year is the most flavorful Chinese New Year.”

According to relevant data, during the 2025 Spring Festival, Yiwu attracted a total of 941,000 visitors, reflecting an 11.68% year-on-year increase. The number of overnight visitors reached 348,000, a 22.91% growth compared to the previous year. With China’s extension of visa-free stays to 240 hours for visitors from 54 countries and regions as of December 2024, Yiwu—a city with strong international appeal—looks set to seize new growth opportunities in the coming years.

It is worth noting that on February 6, just three days before the Yiwu market opening, the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee and Government held a high-level mobilization and deployment meeting in Yiwu to launch the deepening of Yiwu’s comprehensive international trade reforms and the development of the China-Europe Railway Express Hub. Key leaders attended the meeting, underscoring the need to focus on “capacity enhancement, reform breakthroughs, and model innovation” to advance the dual circulation strategy and contribute to the new development pattern. Yiwu International Trade City plays a pivotal role as the “vanguard” of these reforms and is expected to take on greater responsibilities, especially with the planned opening of Yiwu’s Sixth-Generation Market—the Global Digital Trade Center—in October 2025, which will introduce entirely new business operations.

Prior to this, the Chinagoods Yiwu Commodities City Annual Gala recognized the “Top 60 Yiwu Businesswomen” of 2024, forming the “Yiwu Businesswomen Show Team.” This group is ready to take the lead in welcoming global business partners for the 2025 Global Wealth Creation Season, set to launch on April 15.

It is evident that, driven by both economic trends and policy reforms, Yiwu’s market is primed for new growth opportunities in 2025. According to DeepSeek’s projections, Yiwu, renowned for its ability to “create something from nothing,” will not only remain a popular destination for county-level tourism but also emerge as a top choice for global entrepreneurship and wealth creation. With the latest round of international trade reforms and the surge of digital trade, Yiwu—this “land of opportunity”—holds immense business potential for the future.

MicroCloud Hologram Inc. Researches High-order Quantum Switch Technology to achieve quantum holographic communication

SHENZHEN, China, Feb. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — MicroCloud Hologram Inc. (NASDAQ: HOLO), (“HOLO” or the “Company”), a technology service provider, they are dedicated to advancing innovation and progress in quantum technology. Currently, they are developing an advanced high-order quantum switch technology, which lays a solid foundation for achieving more efficient and secure quantum communication.

In predicting qubit communication scenarios, HOLO has applied advanced quantum mechanics theories and mathematical models to conduct in-depth research on various possibilities of qubit communication. Through continuous derivation and verification, the key factors and patterns have been gradually revealed. Based on theoretical research, HOLO has utilized high-performance computers and specialized quantum simulation software to construct multiple complex quantum communication scenario models. These models simulate in detail the transmission process of qubits, the operation of quantum switches, and the impact of different environmental factors on communication. By collecting and analyzing large amounts of simulation experiment data, the models have been continuously optimized, with the aim of making the simulation results more closely aligned with real-world conditions, thereby providing reliable references for practical applications.

After gaining a deep understanding of predicting qubit communication scenarios, HOLO began to define and construct an innovative high-order quantum switch. Starting from the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics, HOLO developed a design scheme for a high-order quantum switch composed of two quantum switches. The uniqueness of this scheme lies in the fact that its application sequence is controlled by another high-order quantum system. This means that by precisely controlling the state of this high-order quantum system, the application sequence of the quantum switches can be flexibly adjusted. During the design process, HOLO carefully considered various potential challenges and solutions, striving to ensure that the high-order quantum switch performs excellently in practical applications.

With the powerful tool of the high-order quantum switch, HOLO began exploring how to apply quantum switches in quantum superposition to achieve more efficient qubit transmission. First, an in-depth study of the working principles of quantum switches was conducted to understand their performance and characteristics in different states. Next, advanced quantum control techniques were used to place the quantum switch in specific quantum superposition states. During this process, precise control of various parameters of the quantum system, such as energy, phase, and spin, was required to ensure that the quantum switch remained stable in the quantum superposition state. HOLO continuously optimized the control strategy during the experiments, striving to achieve the best performance of the quantum switch in the quantum superposition state, thus providing strong support for future quantum communication technologies.

To further enhance the performance of quantum communication systems, HOLO has also focused on developing a novel quantum error correction algorithm. Quantum information is easily affected by various noise and interference during transmission, leading to data loss and errors. To address this issue, HOLO has conducted in-depth research on quantum error correction theory and, in combination with the latest research findings, designed an efficient quantum error correction scheme. This scheme utilizes redundant qubits and complex encoding techniques to detect and correct potential errors without damaging the quantum information. Simulation experiments have verified that this error correction algorithm significantly improves the reliability and stability of quantum communication, providing strong support for achieving long-distance, high-fidelity quantum communication.

In the future, HOLO will continue to focus on innovation and breakthroughs in quantum technology, constantly exploring the potential applications of quantum technology in more fields. As quantum technology continues to develop and improve, HOLO believes it will play a key role in information security, computational capabilities, sensing technologies, and other areas, bringing profound impact to human society. HOLO will collaborate with major research institutions and enterprises to promote the popularization and application of quantum technology, contributing to the creation of a safer, more efficient, and intelligent future.
