Chinese online fashion manufacturer Shein is targeting African markets. Last weekend, it opened its first pop-up shop in South Africa to increase brand awareness. Shein already maintains an online sales presence there; the company is already the market leader in online purchases of women’s textiles, with a market share of 35 percent, according to studies by the Marketing Research Foundation, a South African non-profit market research institute.
