China's e-commerce giant Alibaba has had its sampling inspection procedures for goods traded on its platform, exposed.
A commodity may go through up to 30 sampling inspection procedures, according to one of the company's quality inspection officers.
Commodities that fail to meet any one of the quality indicators are removed from the shelf, and can also lead to the closure of the e-stores, he added.
