Commenting on the FY23 results, eCargo Chief Executive Officer Lawrence Lun said: "We are pleased to share that our transition from B2C to B2B business in 2022 has played a key role in achieving another successful year, withstanding ongoing supply chain disruptions and a slower-than-expected recovery in China.

"Sales on our B2B supply chain platform, Flow, saw significant growth as Small and Medium Enterprise customers seek support in navigating international trade, specifically in sourcing and distribution of products into China. This is crucial due to the evolving import regulations, currency fluctuations, longer sell-through periods and the need for channel expansion - all areas where eCargo excel in supporting clients.

"We are pleased to sign on new reputable clients such as Nestlé. We also explored and established new collaboration models with China's eCommerce platforms such as VIPShop, Tmall, JD, and Omall, where we support their product sourcing."
