These warehouses provide integrated supply chain solutions for Chinese export brands as well as local brands, merchants, and traders, covering Asia, Africa, and Europe. In this cooperation, JD Logistics will leverage its self-developed intelligent logistics equipment and system integration advantages to provide Saudi Electricity Company with integrated hardware and software construction for smart warehouses and intelligent logistics park solutions, further enhancing the centralized dispatch and management level of its logistics supply chain.
This cooperation marks a new milestone for JD Company’s integrated supply chain logistics services in the Middle East. By offering innovative solutions such as intelligent warehousing management systems and intelligent replenishment prediction systems, JD Logistics will assist Saudi Electricity Company in building a nationwide warehousing and transportation network, achieving efficient cargo flow.
