AliExpress, part of the Alibaba Group, is one of the world’s most visited eCommerce platforms. As of 2025, it attracts over 500 million monthly visits, with around 20 million daily users from across countries. The marketplace’s global appeal is driven by competitive pricing, diverse product categories, and its strong focus on cross-border commerce. AliExpress has become a vital marketplace for international buyers, particularly in Europe, where it continues to grow rapidly by offering localized storefronts, multiple language options, and integrated payment and shipping solutions across countries like Spain, France, Germany, Italy, and the UK.
The Shopify–AliExpress Connector App by CedCommerce bridges your Shopify store with the AliExpress marketplace, helping sellers expand their reach across Europe and beyond. The app automates and simplifies inventory, pricing, and product management while ensuring compliance with AliExpress standards. It also supports GPSR (General Product Safety Regulation) compliance through attribute mapping, allowing sellers to provide mandatory product safety information required for selling in the European market.
By leveraging the AliExpress API, the app creates a seamless connection between your Shopify store and European buyers on AliExpress, reducing operational workload and opening up new sales opportunities. With this app, you can list products easily, manage real-time inventory, and sync product status between Shopify and AliExpress. This ensures error-free listings, regulatory compliance, and smooth order handling across multiple European markets, making it an essential tool for cross-border sellers looking to scale.
