About

Temu is a Boston, Massachusetts-headquartered global e-commerce marketplace — owned by PDD Holdings (NASDAQ: PDD), the parent company of China's Pinduoduo — that launched in the United States in September 2022 with an ultra-low-price, direct-from-Chinese-manufacturer model under the tagline "Shop Like a Billionaire," reaching $70.8 billion in gross merchandise volume (GMV) and expanding to 90+ markets worldwide within three years. By Q2 2025, Temu reached 416.5 million monthly active users globally, accumulated 1.0 billion cumulative app downloads, and users spent an average of 21 minutes per day on the platform — engagement metrics exceeding Amazon, eBay, and AliExpress for average session duration. Temu captured an estimated 17% of the US e-commerce market by April 2024, becoming the most-downloaded shopping app in the US within two months of launch and the second most-used cross-border e-retailer globally after Amazon. PDD Holdings' $4.3 billion estimated marketing spend in 2024 (Super Bowl advertising, Meta and Google ad dominance) fueled this growth by subsidizing customer acquisition below cost. However, in early 2025, Temu made a pivotal operational change: following President Trump's executive order eliminating the de minimis customs exemption (which had allowed packages under $800 to enter the US duty-free, the economic foundation of Temu's direct-from-China shipping model), Temu halted direct China-to-US shipments and pivoted to US-based local seller fulfillment — fundamentally changing its supply chain model.
