Future of daigou

Hi,

I work in a chemist chain and have seen how much money these daigou spend on products and how much profit we make from these products. For example a2 may sell at $36, and our order price may be $26.
This means that every can we sell makes us $10, these daigou will buy literally trolleys full of this stuff per person and are limited by our stores as to how much they can buy.

So if one customer spent $6000 (166 cans at $36) then we make  5976 - 4316 =  $1660 in profit.. from just one customer...

Now if this store has no limits on purchasable quantities and also no limit on stock able to be ordered into the store, AND then an ever increasing market share and consumer base (daigou estimated to be around 40000 around July-august sometime this year and forecasts to triple over the years coming) , and finally these stores may get even better profit margins than my chemist does if they're ordering in large enough quantities ... which means even more profit to be made..

heres some intersting articles I read recently on the current dynamics  and future of this industry

you can see the shifting attitudes from ecommerce (koala, Alibaba) to daigou as the Chinese eccommerce  laws regulations have been shifted back a year, it also seems to suggest that koala and the likes still benefit from daigou knowledge and trends' too
