JD Logistics announced that it has partnered with Biedronka, allowing the Polish grocery giant to leverage JD Logistics' warehousing and distribution capability in the country to fulfil its online orders and expand its online business.
Managing over 1,500 warehouses in China and overseas, JD Logistics offers end-to-end integrated supply chain services to its clients.
Its 15,000 sqm warehouse in Poland has been customized to fulfil all of Biedronka's online orders and to enable speedy delivery within as fast as 24 hours.
JD said this is made possible by JD's warehouse management system, which manages inventory on the SKU level and elevates the outbound and inventory accuracy rate to 99.5%.
"JD Logistics is honoured to cooperate with Biedronka," said Zhong Zhang, a senior director of JD Logistics Europe.
"Our strong end-to-end supply chain capabilities and experiences in omnichannel fulfilment will help boost Biedronka's online business transformation," Zhang added.
Jakub Knauer, logistics projects manager at Biedronka noted that e-commerce logistics demands deep expertise as he welcomed the company's partnership with JD Logistics.
"Together we were able to build a landscape of integrated IT systems for efficient inventory, and outbound and inbound management. JD Logistics' services have enabled us to efficiently fulfil online orders, even in the face of a 17-fold increase in the daily number of orders," Knauer said.
JD Logistics' international business operates approximately 90 bonded warehouses, international direct mail warehouses and overseas warehouses, covering an aggregate GFA of approximately 900,000 square meters with an over 70% increase year-over-year.
Biedronka - the largest retail chain in Poland, has been serving the Polish market for 27 years. As of the end of the third quarter of 2022, the chain has 3,304 stores located in more than 1,100 towns and cities.
