Dada (NASDAQ: DADA) is a leading local on-demand retail and delivery platform in China, connecting consumers, retailers, brands, merchants, and delivery riders through technology and logistics infrastructure. Founded in Shanghai in 2014, the company operates two complementary businesses: JD NOW, a local on-demand retail platform, and Dada NOW, an on-demand delivery platform serving merchants and individual users.

JD NOW enables consumers to order products from nearby supermarkets, pharmacies, fresh-food retailers, beverage stores, bakeries, and other merchants for rapid local fulfillment, while providing retailers and brands with digital storefront, inventory, marketing, and order-management capabilities. Dada NOW provides intra-city and last-mile delivery services for chain retailers, small and medium-sized businesses, logistics companies, and individual senders. Together, the two platforms integrate local commerce with fulfillment infrastructure, helping physical retailers digitize their operations and deliver goods to consumers on demand.
