JD Logistics and French delivery service Geopost have formed a strategic partnership aimed at strengthening their capabilities by leveraging their warehousing network and delivery capabilities.

The partnership is expected to enhance international express services between China and Europe, which will see the two companies establish direct-to-consumer (C2C) and business-to-consumer (B2C) shipping solutions, whilst ensuring end-to-end shipment tracking and delivery through a convenient “one-stop” express delivery service.

Services will include doorstep delivery, dedicated customer support, and digital tracking capabilities throughout the entire logistics process, with global reverse logistics services integrated into the service.

These services are expected to benefit shippers of individual parcels as well as businesses, small and medium-sized merchants, and direct-to-consumer (DTC) operations, which can offer competitive pricing and faster deliveries by 1-2 days.

This collaboration allows JD Logistics to enhance its integrated warehousing and delivery services in Europe. This means parcels originating from JDL’s overseas warehouses in Europe can now offer same-day delivery service, surpassing industry standards, in key countries including Germany, The Netherlands, France, the UK, Spain, and Poland.

The two organisations also plan to develop competitive FBA (fulfillment by Amazon) service capabilities in the European to help merchants increase efficiency and lower costs.
