. Additionally, Temu has established a global network of warehouses to speed up delivery times. These warehouses are strategically located near major transportation hubs in key regions including the United States (Los Angeles, Dallas, Newark), Asia (Shanghai, Guangdong, Zhejiang), and Europe (Rotterdam, Frankfurt)
