quality is shown to mediate the relationship between 
user ratings and purchase intention. Buttle et al. 
(Buttle 1997) carried out mail surveys on 4,250 
certificated organizations; 1,220 (28.7 percent) 
responded. Marketing considerations were secondary 
in seeking registration, and outcomes related to 
profitability and process improvement were more 
highly valued than marketing benefits. 
Logistics and transportation are also important for 
e-commerce companies. Speranza et al. (Speranza 
2018) propose that problems in transportation and 
logistics had to be tackled long before computers and 
Operational Research (OR) became available to 
support decision making. After the first optimization 
models were developed, OR has substantially 
contributed to making transportation systems efficient 
and companies with complex transportation and 
logistics problems competitive. Gunasekaran and 
Ngai et al. (Gunasekaran & Ngai 2003) analyze the 
company, a small third‐party logistics (3PL) company 
in Hong Kong, which has been successful in its overall 
business performance and satisfying customers. This 
company's strategic alliances with both clients and 
customers have helped to improve the utilization of its 
resources, such as warehouse space and transportation 
fleets. Also, the company is in the process of 
expanding its operations across greater China, to 
become a full‐fledged 3PL company. 
E-commerce is becoming more popular. Sarkis 
and Talluri (Sarkis, Meade & Talluri 2004) realize that 
a strong supporting logistics or electronic logistics (e‐
logistics) function is an important organizational 
offering from both the commercial and the consumer 
perspective. The implications of e‐logistics models 
and practices cover the forward and reverse logistics 
functions of organizations. They also have a direct and 
profound impact from an environmental perspective. 
Barnes et al. (Barnes 2002) analyze that fueled by the 
increasing saturation of mobile technology, such as 
phones and personal digital assistants (PDAs), m-
commerce promises to inject considerable change into 
the way certain activities are conducted. Equipped 
with micro-browsers and other mobile applications, 
the new range of mobile technologies offers the 
Internet ‘in your pocket’ for which the consumer 
possibilities are endless, including banking, booking 
or buying tickets, shopping, and real-time news. 
Bichler and Zhao (Bichler, Segev & Zhao 1998) 
component-based e-commerce technology is a recent 
trend towards resolving the e-commerce challenge at 
both system and application levels. Instead of 
delivering a system as a prepacked monolith system 
containing any conceivable feature, component-based 
systems consist of a lightweight kernel to which new 
features can be added in the form of components. 
Jing Dong is one of the giants in the Chinese 
market. Li Mei and Guo Chen (Li & Guo 2015) 
research the issue of self- logistics in Jing Dong under 
the background of the rapid development of e-
commerce. The analysis of the advantages and 
disadvantages and the comparison of the third-party 
logistics proved that self- logistics enjoyed significant 
advantages. However, there exist potential risks of too 
large investment, difficult management of staff, and 
distraction from core business. Sun and Zhou (Sun, 
Liu, Higgs & Zhou 2017) consider the research status 
of the Internet of Things as applied to supply chain 
management. A supply chain analysis model is built 
under the Internet of Things environment using Jing 
Dong Mall as a case study. The results show that the 
Internet of Things improved the quality of information 
available to Jing Dong, enhanced its management 
efficiency, and improved customers' satisfaction; it 
also reduced the cost of supply chain management 
whilst creating more new value. 
In this paper, we mainly analyze the e-commerce 
orders of Olist Store in Brazil from 2017 to 2018 
focused on four dimensions: monthly sales, order 
confirmation time, scores of reviews, and the number 
of regular customers. 
Firstly, we can see that sale volume has been 
increasing throughout 2017 and reached the highest 
level of the year in November. The decline was 
significant in December. Sales have declined every 
month since 2018, but overall sales are higher than 
2017. Due to the last few months of 2018 being 
missing, we do not know how the sales are going in 
the rest of the months. Therefore, we guess it will hit 
a new high. Secondly, we analyze the order time. We 
know that the confirmation time for each quarter was 
less than 5 minutes, but similar to the previous 
analysis, due to the autumn and winter demand being 
high, the confirmation time for spring and summer 
was higher than autumn and winter. Thirdly, due to the 
user evaluation, it is one of the indicators used to 
evaluate the quality of goods, so we analyze the user 
evaluation. 59% of users gave a 5 score and 13% gave 
a 1-2 score. Overall, customer satisfaction at Olist 
stores is not very high. As a result, the total number of 
user reviews dropped significantly in August 2017. 
We speculate that the reason influencing this factor is 
product quality or platform service. Because the 
repurchase rate is the key to the sustainable operation 
of Olist stores. In the end, we analyze the number of 
regular customers. 90% of customers buy once a 
month, and less than 13% of customers buy more than 
three times a month. For this purpose, the Olist Store
