Wang Tiantian, general manager of Alibaba International Station's Chinese suppliers and cross-border supply chain, said that foreign trade development is moving from the "traffic growth era" to the "high-quality growth era". Logistics, as an important part of delivery and fulfillment, is also changing from "low-price cargo collection" to "delivery certainty guarantee".

In March 2022, Alibaba International Station officially launched its digital cross-border B2B logistics service - Alibaba.com Logistics, which solves the problem of "difficulty in fulfilling contracts" through a one-stop cross-border supply chain service system.

It is reported that Alibaba.com Logistics is a cross-border logistics service specially designed for cross-border B2B SMEs. With digital technology as the core, it covers a full range of guarantee services from front-end order management, first-leg collection, warehousing, customs declaration, international transportation, to back-end customs clearance, last-mile transportation, etc. , helping cross-border B2B SMEs to easily transport around the world. "Alibaba International Station Logistics Service proposes the concept of digital cross-border e-commerce 'scenario logistics'. We meet the needs of cross-border B2B buyers and sellers, and provide one-stop digital logistics solutions around the three major scenarios of cross-border e-commerce transactions, delivery, and compliance, " said Wei Ran, head of cross-border supply chain fulfillment logistics and customs affairs at Alibaba International Station .

As of now, Alibaba.com Logistics , the logistics service of Alibaba International Station, covers more than 220 countries and regions, and more than 26,000 global transport routes. Among them, the delivery guarantee routes cover 169 countries and regions, and so far, 32 million products have enjoyed the delivery guarantee and late arrival compensation services .

In 2023, Alibaba International Station will upgrade its logistics to "worry-free guarantee", covering three aspects: capacity guarantee, service guarantee, and delivery guarantee. Based on global capacity, sea freight FCL will expand from China and the United States to Southeast Asia and the Middle East, gradually covering near and far ocean routes. The newly added "Quick Claims" will make after-sales service more secure, and the timeliness guarantee for inbound and outbound warehousing will make the delivery more secure.

In the future, Alibaba International Station Logistics will plan to add central warehouses across the country and plan satellite warehouses in major industrial belts and cities where businesses are relatively concentrated, comprehensively improve the service quality of the platform logistics in the warehousing segment, and provide localized, standardized, and networked warehousing and distribution services to more businesses.
