Cainiao appeared at the International Postal Annual Summit and its global logistics capabilities were recognized

IPC was established in 1989 and is composed of 25 national postal service organizations in major countries in Europe, Asia-Pacific and North America . Its main activities are to provide various assistance to its postal members, including improving the quality of international mail and providing industry research. It is reported that Cainiao is the only Chinese logistics company invited to speak at the summit.

Dennis Li, the head of Cainiao International Export Division in Northeast Europe, shared in his keynote speech the experience of digital logistics and green logistics accumulated by Cainiao in the highly developed environment of China's domestic e-commerce industry over the past nine years, and introduced the layout and construction of global logistics capabilities of Cainiao Logistics in the context of the continuous development of cross-border e-commerce. "We believe that through experience exchange and sincere cooperation, Cainiao and overseas postal companies can further cooperate closely and jointly bring overseas consumers good services with high cost-effectiveness and certainty." Dennis Li said .  

The logistics experience from China and the new growth opportunities of China's cross-border e-commerce have brought new inspiration to the postal senior managers present. According to data released by the General Administration of Customs, in the first four months of this year, the total value of China's imports and exports was 12.58 trillion yuan, an increase of 7.9% over the same period last year (the same below). Among them, exports were 6.97 trillion yuan, an increase of 10.3%.

In order to meet the cross-border fulfillment issues brought about by the continued growth of cross-border e-commerce, Cainiao continues to increase its overseas logistics infrastructure construction, such as the commissioning and operation of smart logistics hubs such as Liege, Belgium and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and the construction of 9 international express distribution centers in Europe, South America, and Southeast Asia . At the same time, Cainiao has also accelerated the deployment of infrastructure and efficiency improvement in Eastern Europe. Taking the Hungarian distribution center as an example, the distribution center was launched before November 2021. The recent efficiency has increased by more than 200% compared to when it was first put into use , and the operating cost has continued to decline with the improvement of efficiency , helping domestic products to go overseas and achieve cross-border worry-free .

In the fourth quarter of 2021, Cainiao International’s average daily cross-border parcels exceeded 5 million, continuing to stand shoulder to shoulder with international logistics giants. Its “5 US dollars for 10-day delivery” logistics product has covered 20 countries, helping more cross-border merchants “deliver to the world with the money for a cup of coffee.”

According to data from Statista tracking parcels weighing no more than 70 pounds (31.5 kg) in 13 countries/regions , global parcel transportation volume reached 157.9 billion pieces in 2021, and it is predicted that global parcel transportation volume will increase significantly to 266 billion pieces in 2026. In the fourth quarter of 2021 , European postal express companies entered a period of intensive capital activities, with more than 10 investment, sale and acquisition intensive periods .

Mark Harrison, head of marketing at the International Postal Corporation , said that Cainiao has close cooperation with many IPC member postal companies. He is very grateful that Cainiao has shared its Chinese logistics experience, especially the experience and technology of green logistics and digital logistics, and looks forward to more in-depth cooperation.

While paying attention to the continued growth of the postal industry, the postal industry guests also expressed great concern about the sustainability of the logistics industry after the rise of the e-commerce industry. Cainiao is also actively building terminal networks overseas to provide overseas consumers with more and greener pickup options. In Spain, France, Poland and other European countries, Cainiao has deployed more than 6,000 sets of self-pickup cabinets.

During the Double 11 shopping festival in 2021, Cainiao sent out more than 90 million parcels using green packaging, reducing the length of tape used by more than 84 million meters. In order to help merchants better manage their carbon assets, Cainiao has explored and developed a carbon asset management system that covers a variety of corporate carbon asset services, including carbon emission statistical forecasts, carbon grade industry reports, carbon inventory statistics, and third-party certification of carbon emissions.
