In its effort to boost the country's e-commerce sector, the Chinese government has formalised 15 new national e-commerce demonstration bases—clusters of local e-commerce companies and entrepreneurship and innovation platforms for the e-commerce industry. With this, the total number of official e-commerce demonstration bases has increased to 127.

China pays high attention to the development of e-commerce, China's vice minister of commerce Qian Keming said while granting licenses to the new bases during an e-commerce session of the 2020 China International Fair for Trade in Services at the China National Convention Center in Beijing.

The e-commerce sector has played a significant role in helping fight against the COVID-19 epidemic, driving consumption recovery and smoothing industrial and supply chains of foreign trade, especially since this year, Keming added, according to Chinese media reports.
