Fangcun Wuzi

Fangcun Wuzi, operating as fcwuzi.com, is a business-to-business platform focused on the bulk commodity spot transaction industry in China. The company was founded in December 2015. It provides a comprehensive ecosystem that integrates trading, logistics, and supply chain finance services for commodities such as steel, coal, and building materials.

The platform aims to enhance efficiency within traditional commodity trading by offering a suite of digital services. These include online transaction matching, which allows buyers and sellers to connect and trade directly, and integrated logistics solutions that cover warehousing and transportation to streamline the physical movement of goods. A key component of its business model is supply chain finance, where it leverages transaction data to offer financial services to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) within its network, helping them manage cash flow and secure funding.

Fangcun Wuzi serves a client base that includes commodity producers, traders, and end-users primarily within the industrial and construction sectors. The company generates revenue through service fees charged on transactions, logistics management, and financial services. In 2016, the company secured an angel investment round from Plum Ventures, a prominent Chinese venture capital firm.
