PDD operates a group of commerce businesses rather than a single retail brand, working to draw more merchants and shoppers into online trade. Its stated purpose is to give local communities and small businesses access to greater productivity and fresh opportunities through digital commerce.

To support the businesses under its umbrella, PDD has put together its own sourcing, logistics, and fulfillment network. This backbone connects the different arms of the group and underpins the trade that happens across its platforms, linking merchants and buyers through shared operational capabilities.
The company was started in 2015 by Hua Lin Cai and Zheng Huang and now has its headquarters in Dublin, Ireland. Its shares trade under the ticker PDD.
