What defines this cluster

Where the money settles decides where the company is registered.

E-commerce groups organise themselves around VAT, payment settlement and customs long before they think about brand. Cayman holdings dominate the Asian marketplaces, Alibaba, Shopee and Lazada among them, while Dutch and German entities handle European VAT pooling for Zalando and About You. The regional champions, Trendyol, Hepsiburada, Flipkart, Nykaa and Noon, each sit inside a structure shaped by their home market's import and payment rules.
