E-commerce platforms can be divided into comprehensive platforms and vertical platforms. Comprehensive platforms are not limited to agricultural products, which are very rich in categories. Typical e-commerce platforms include JD, Tmall and Pinduoduo. Their business modules include separate agricultural products. Vertical platforms are generally e-commerce platforms that sell the same type of products, which can facilitate and accelerate the supply path from the supply side to consumers.
The e-commerce of agricultural products enterprises originated in 2005. With the rise of the Internet and e-commerce, the vertical e-commerce of agricultural products was established sporadically. During this period, the product homogeneity was high, represented by fresh fruit, and the main brand was fruit. After 2008, e-commerce of agricultural products began to emerge, showing the momentum of full category development, and gradually forming a multi development model of B2C, C2C, O2O. From 2013 to 2015, when the growth of traditional e-commerce products slowed down, the "air outlet" of agricultural e-commerce was prominent, and a large number of capital poured in. The agricultural e-commerce started a round of "burning money". The competition between giants and local forces was intensified, and various business models emerged. A large number of players entered and exited the market, and the market scale also grew rapidly.
At the same time, many food enterprises have begun to lay out e-commerce business and expand their channels with the help of gradually mature third-party platforms. Some enterprises have also started to build or focus on promoting their own private domain platforms, such as COFCO Womai.
After 2020, the development of agricultural products e-commerce will encounter bottlenecks and the growth rate will gradually decline, which is directly related to the rapid expansion in the early stage. Most platforms have experienced supply chain fractures, cash flow fractures, etc. Long term losses have led many platforms to start shrinking business or even close, focusing on optimizing the supply chain and mode.

On the whole, from the perspective of dynamic development, the e-commerce market of agricultural products has been in a growing trend, with large market space. However, the development of e-commerce of agricultural products has encountered bottlenecks, and the business has begun to shrink.
Under the background of shrinking mainstream agricultural products e-commerce, state-owned enterprises and central enterprises e-commerce have taken the opportunity of national poverty alleviation policy to develop business in recent years. In 2020, the State owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC) organized and issued the Notice on Matters Related to the Construction of the Central Enterprise Consumption Poverty Alleviation E-commerce Platform, and carried out the central enterprise consumption poverty alleviation action to solve the problem of unsalable agricultural products in poor areas. On line, the State Grid E-Commerce Corporation organized the development of the central enterprise consumption poverty alleviation e-commerce platform, which integrates the central enterprise e-commerce resources, mainly provides stable e-commerce sales channels for agricultural products in targeted poverty alleviation counties, focuses on building the central enterprise poverty alleviation brand, expands the influence and customer base of the central enterprise e-commerce, and realizes the sales of agricultural products in poor areas through large-scale joint efforts.
Off line, promote central enterprises to increase the procurement of agricultural products in poor areas. Chinese enterprises can rely on e-commerce platforms and combine their own actual conditions to purchase agricultural products in poor areas through centralized ordering of enterprise canteens and trade unions. Central enterprise employees can also purchase agricultural products through the platform, so as to broaden the channels and product selection range of consumer poverty alleviation and strengthen the efforts of consumer poverty alleviation.
The consumption poverty alleviation e-commerce of central enterprises is participated by central enterprises, mainly through the centralized procurement mode, to help poor areas sell agricultural products. The platform was officially put into operation on May 12, 2020, and has set up ministries and commissions, central enterprises and local libraries. In addition to the main management ministries, nearly 100 central enterprises have settled in e-commerce. The platform provides a wide range of products, including fruits and vegetables, meat, poultry and eggs, grain and oil seasoning, mixed drinks, and agricultural and sideline processing. Specific product classifications are set under each category to manage stores, products, orders, and credits. The APP has also set up sectors such as precise traceability, support for big data, and enterprise internal purchase.
The consumption poverty alleviation e-commerce platform of central enterprises adopts a variety of marketing methods to realize the sales of agricultural products, such as "live broadcast with goods", public service advertising, "through train", "tourism+poverty alleviation", etc. The investment in purchasing and subsidizing agricultural products in poor areas has reached more than 2 billion yuan.
The e-commerce platform for consumption assistance of central enterprises helped farmers and benefited farmers by carrying out the "Agriculture Week" activity. During the activity, nearly 100 central enterprises promoted high-quality agricultural and livestock products to enter the canteen, trade unions and families through employee canteen fairs, online theme sales and other activities, and mobilized cadres and employees of their departments to participate. In addition, the consumption poverty alleviation e-commerce platform of central enterprises also carried out live broadcast activities with goods, such as "Central Enterprises Interconnected Live Broadcast", "Director of the Poverty Alleviation Office of Central Enterprises with Goods", which not only pushed the poverty alleviation action to a climax, but also promoted the promotion of the e-commerce brand of central enterprises.
Therefore, although the development of e-commerce platforms for mainstream agricultural products enterprises has encountered bottlenecks in recent years and their business has gradually begun to shrink, e-commerce is still an important tool for central enterprises to help the poor.
