SF Holding Pre-IPO: Three Important Issues for Long-Term Investors to Consider
- SF Holding’s domestic parcel volumes have grown slower than overall market volumes recently; is this strategic, or simply a loss of share?
- SF Holding is not closely aligned with any of the large online retail platforms in China; ultimately, is this independence an advantage or a disadvantage?
- When will SF Holdings’ varied international operations — and there are a few of them — begin to pull their own weight, in terms of profitability and growth?
