- Voice & Multimodal Commerce 3.1 Conversational Interfaces Everywhere Smart Device Integration: Overview: Optimize for Tmall Genie, XiaoAI, and car OS voice shopping—expected to account for 20% of transactions by 2028.

Case Study: Procter & Gamble’s AI-Driven China Transformation P&G built a proprietary “Consumer Brain” platform in China that ingests data from Tmall, JD, Douyin, and offline partners in real time. By 2025, AI predicts individual household replenishment needs and triggers automatic subscriptions or personalized promotions—driving double-digit growth in a flat category and setting the benchmark for consumer data mastery.
Conclusion The future of China’s consumer market will be won or lost in the data center, not the store. Overseas brands that invest now in enterprise-grade SaaS, privacy compliance, and predictive technology will enjoy compounding advantages for decades.
