AliExpress and Cainiao's "Global 5-Day Delivery" is officially launched

As brands continue to expand overseas, cross-border e-commerce has entered the era of “global 5-day delivery”.

On September 26, AliExpress and Cainiao officially announced the launch of the "Global 5-Day Delivery" international express delivery product, which was first launched in the UK, Spain, the Netherlands, Belgium and South Korea . This is a leading product in the field of global cross-border e-commerce logistics. Consumers in the five countries can place orders with the "5 - day delivery" feature on the AliExpress Choice channel.   For products marked with "五日达" (five-day delivery), you can receive the package from China within 5 working days.

It is understood that at the end of June this year, Cainiao and AliExpress announced the launch of the "Global 5-Day Delivery" express product within the year. In less than three months, it has been launched in five key countries, and more key markets can achieve an average of 5 to 10 days of delivery . It is reported that Cainiao's "Global 5- Day Delivery " is the industry's first large-scale cross-border e-commerce express product , which was launched simultaneously in five Asian and European countries.

Reporters learned at the on-site press conference that in the past six months, Cainiao and AliExpress have taken the lead in piloting 5-day delivery products in South Korea. Data shows that AliExpress Korea's order volume in May this year increased by more than 100% year-on-year. In Europe, key markets such as the United Kingdom, Spain, Belgium and the Netherlands have also entered the global 5-day delivery "free shipping zone" and enjoyed the ultra-high efficiency of China's cross-border logistics.

According to Yi Yun, General Manager of AliExpress Logistics Supply Chain , the first batch of overseas markets where the 5- day delivery service was launched have great development potential for cross-border e-commerce. After several months of trial runs, internal tests have shown that the 5- day delivery express product has greatly helped the order volume of fully managed merchants and consumer repurchases, forming a positive cycle of logistics driving order volume growth.

In addition to greatly improving the efficiency of cross-border logistics, logistics security must also keep up. Cainiao and AliExpress have also jointly launched "5-day delivery, late delivery must be compensated", multilingual customer service, free returns and other security measures to enhance the comprehensive logistics experience of overseas consumers.

Gao Yan, a furniture and home furnishing merchant on AliExpress, said during her sharing on the spot that the powerful combination of "AliExpress selling goods + Cainiao shipping goods" is the secret to her growing cross-border e-commerce business. As one of the first merchants to experience 5-day delivery, Gao Yan's store not only received more five-star reviews, but also saw a large number of consumers placing multiple orders in the store because of the smooth shopping and logistics experience. The guarantee of delivery time has become the core competitiveness of her products .

In the past, in cross-border logistics links, only by reducing the number of parcel handovers can the delivery time be faster and the cost be lower . Ding Hongwei, vice president of Cainiao Group and general manager of the International Express Division, said that Cainiao International Express continues to make breakthroughs around the links, reducing unnecessary handovers, strengthening the bite of each link, and strengthening digital operation capabilities, reducing costs and improving efficiency in each logistics link .

Specifically, Cainiao has achieved the "three-in-one" functions of warehousing, distribution, and trunk warehouses through the construction of a collection network in China, saving merchants an average of 1-2 days; on the overseas customs clearance side, the "fast in and fast out" customs and warehouse integrated model helps to directly perform customs clearance and distribution after the plane lands, eliminating the need for a distribution center; in the terminal delivery section, the efficient customs clearance, distribution, and terminal delivery network built in key markets such as Europe and the United States enables packages to be collected locally and delivered to most areas the next day.

"5-day delivery is an innovative e-commerce express product we created based on our insights into cross-border merchants and consumers, creating differentiated value and experience for customers . " Ding Hongwei introduced that Cainiao and AliExpress, the "overseas partners", have been working together for a long time to jointly launch easy- to - use and inexpensive e-commerce logistics solutions . In the future, Cainiao will work with AliExpress to expand the global 5- day delivery to more countries and regions.

Currently, Cainiao’s international express logistics network covers more than 200 countries and regions around the world , helping more cross-border merchants to deliver goods around the world.
