Evri: This year has been transformative
Evri has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with China and Asia’s largest integrated logistics provider, SF International, as both parties work to further strengthen cross-border e-commerce and supply chain operations.
The agreement, formalised at a signing ceremony at SF Express’ global headquarters in Shenzhen, will build on the existing relationship between the two companies, marking a significant step towards greater collaboration between the UK and China, and leveraging both organisations’ scale and expertise.
Under the MOU, Evri and SF International will explore opportunities to streamline cross-border shipping, improve service efficiency, and develop joint solutions to support retailers and consumers in the growing e-commerce market. The partnership will also look beyond China, with plans to assess further international markets, including the US and Australia.
SF International ranks as the world’s fourth-largest logistics provider, with a strong global network and capabilities in international express delivery, supply chain management, and cross-border e-commerce logistics.
Meanwhile, Evri, now part of the newly formed Evri Group following its merger with DHL eCommerce UK – soon to be rebranded as Evri Premium – earlier this year, is continuing its expansion globally. The business already delivers to over 220 countries and territories worldwide, and with this latest move, it will further reinforce its commitment to strengthening operations internationally.
John Sansby, Director of Global Partnerships at Evri, said: “We’re delighted to build on our partnership with SF International through this Memorandum of Understanding, and this milestone reflects Evri’s commitment to expanding our global network and delivering even greater value to customers worldwide.
“This year has been a transformative one for Evri, and this agreement sets the stage for expanding our international capabilities and unlocking new opportunities for cross-border e-commerce. We look forward to working closely with SF International to enhance services between China and the UK and explore further growth in the years ahead.”
Peter Huang, Vice President of SF International, stated: “The core of the collaboration between SF International and Evri lies in their synergistic potential within the UK. Evri’s nationwide coverage and efficient fulfilment capabilities will provide critical support for SF International to deepen its local presence, while SF International’s global logistics strength will further enhance the cross-border service experience for Evri’s customers.
“We plan to first deepen logistics cooperation within the UK, improving parcel processing efficiency and supply chain smoothness. Building on this foundation, we will simultaneously explore expansion into markets such as the United States and Australia, replicating the successful UK model to deliver better logistics solutions for global customers.”
