SHEIN is a global fast-fashion e-commerce platform headquartered in Singapore, selling low-priced apparel, accessories and home goods through its mobile app and website. Co-founded in China by Sky Yangtian Xu, who serves as chairman and chief executive, it relies on an on-demand supply-chain model with third-party manufacturers to test designs in small batches and scale what sells. SHEIN operates across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and Latin America and has added a third-party marketplace alongside its own brand. It listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in September 2026 after abandoning earlier New York and London attempts.

Shares fell as much as 10% on debut to an intraday low of HK$43.72, leaving SHEIN valued around 60% below the $66B post-money of its 2023 private round and roughly 73% below its ~$100B 2022 mark.
