The role of JD.com's logistics in the development of JD.com:

1. Why does JD.com build its own logistics?

As we all know, when Liu Qiangdong got financing, he realized that the core of e-commerce is logistics. Only when logistics is up can consumers feel the fun of e-commerce shopping. Therefore, Liu Qiangdong withstood the huge pressure and started to build JD.com's logistics. Although it seems that tens of billions of yuan will be invested in logistics every year, the final result is good.

2. The contribution of logistics to JD.com

After JD.com had logistics, and the platform has always insisted on self-operation, JD.com can grow rapidly under the nose of Tmall. How fast is JD.com's logistics? You can ask JD.com users in the first and second tier cities. They can be said to be absolute fans of the JD.com platform!

3. The disadvantages of JD.com's logistics

How to say it? JD.com currently has nearly 200,000 employees, but most of them are first-line JD.com couriers and warehouse personnel. For a technology company, such a large employee system will inevitably hinder JD.com's transformation to technology to a certain extent. But what is certain is that with the advent of the era of artificial intelligence, JD.com's logistics will be fully intelligent in the future! It is worth mentioning that from JD.com's latest financial report, JD.com Logistics has currently achieved a small profit, which shows that the decision Liu Qiangdong made that year was correct!

Ali imitates

It is said that Tencent likes to imitate others. In fact, Alibaba has also learned from JD.com in logistics. I remember that Jack Ma complained before that JD.com Logistics was too cumbersome and would have to support hundreds of thousands of employees in the future. Management alone would be a headache! But what was the result? Jack Ma then took out 100 billion to establish the Cainiao Alliance. To be honest, in the field of logistics, Liu Qiangdong still sees farther than Jack Ma.

To sum up, JD.com Logistics seems to be burning money, but from the perspective of capital, this money is worth burning. And now JD.com Logistics has also confirmed this. Do you think this is the truth?
