History
PDD Holdings Inc. was incorporated in 2015 and is based in Dublin, Ireland. Founded by Huang Zheng, it began commercial operations through Hangzhou Aimi and Shanghai Xunmeng, building a social-commerce platform around group-buying, low prices and factory supply. The company was named Pinduoduo Inc. in 2018 and listed on Nasdaq on July 26, 2018, pricing its ADSs at US$19 and raising roughly US$1.63 billion. In September 2022 it launched Temu, a global online platform, and renamed itself PDD Holdings Inc. in February 2023.
Industry position
PDD Holdings operates in internet retail, running the domestic Pinduoduo marketplace and the cross-border Temu platform; its revenue comes from online marketing services and transaction-service fees rather than first-party retail. In 2025 revenue reached RMB 431.85 billion, with the two streams nearly even at RMB 217.78 billion and RMB 214.06 billion. The model is unusually asset-light, with 2025 capital expenditure of only about RMB 1.145 billion. Its core strength is efficiently organizing low-priced Chinese manufacturing supply; key competitors include Alibaba and JD.com at home, and Shein, AliExpress and Amazon overseas.
