创业邦 · wechat · 2026-08-27
Shein launched its Hong Kong global offering on Aug 24, with Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and JPMorgan as sponsors and Tencent, Tiger Global among cornerstone investors; the retail tranche was reportedly oversubscribed. Per its prospectus, 2025 net revenue hit $41.8B (14.2% CAGR 2023–2025) with 273M active consumers across 160 markets.
The article breaks down its supply chain playbook: the LATR model tests new styles in 100–200 unit batches, uses real-time click/cart/purchase data for replenishment (hot items restocked in as fast as 5 days, supplier settlement as fast as 7 days), keeping unsold inventory in low single digits with 36-day inventory turnover. Shein also runs a shared R&D center for small factories and the SHEIN Xcelerator program (Missguided topped $210M revenue in 2025), lifting service revenue share from 2.7% to 11.3%.
