Meanwhile, Suning.com continued to drive out-of-store sales in Q3 through push orders, group buying and live streaming promotions. The Group further integrated Carrefour China's supply chain and seized market opportunities to develop its to-home business. During the reporting period, the platform experienced a steady expansion in product ranges with the number of active users in August up by 22.49% year-on-year.

Through cost reduction measures and boosting operational efficiency, Suning has also optimized its product supply chain, user management and services.
