DHL and JD.com expand cross border logistics partnership

DHL and JD.com have agreed to work together on a range of cross-border supply chain initiatives that will “leverage” their “expertise in logistics and ecommerce”. In a joint statement issued today (2 February), the two companies said that the new agreement would build on their existing relationship.

In July 2015, DHL was made the “preferred logistics service provider” for moving American products ordered on JD.com’s U.S. Mall to and across China.

Under the terms of the new, extended agreement, DHL will become the preferred logistics supplier to JD.com’s International Business Group, which focuses on consumers in markets outside of China, and JD.com will also become a strategic customer under DHL’s Fast Growing Enterprises initiative.

According to the joint statement: “DHL will provide international express; air, ocean and road freight; warehousing; parcel delivery; e-commerce services and access to fulfillment distribution centers, and local distribution services in key regions to support the global growth of JD.com internationally. Currently, DHL is also providing international express services between China and France.”

The two companies have also agreed “to explore the development of innovative cross-border supply chain systems and operating processes”.
