Ali Baba Group Expands Supply Chain Logistics Into Hong Kong

Posted: Wednesday, January 26, 2022 at 8:00 PM CST

Hong Kong, China -- (SBWire) -- 01/26/2022 --It has been announced that Ali Baba Group's Cainiao Network is expanding outside Mainland China for the first time - into Hong Kong. The move is going to significantly grow the network in the Asia Pacific region, creating 10 Cainiao Post stations and 60 designated collection points. As a logistics platform with a well-established presence in China, this is a significant step for Cainiao Network (and Ali Baba) - and comes as eCommerce sales in Hong Kong are forecast to continue to rise and the drive for digitisation continues. Accelerating digitisation is a key motivation for many companies like Cainiao Network, which has 1.8 million customers in Hong Kong. Over the past year or so the pandemic has highlighted some big issues and weak spots in supply chains and technology provides a wealth of options where solutions are concerned. Part of the expansion will be establishing broader standardisation and digitisation for deployment of IoT solutions to better serve the brand's customers.

DSJ Global was first established in 2008 and is now a leading specialist supply chain recruitment agency. The firm has worked with many organisations such as Ali Baba Group, and Cainiao Network, where the goal of expansion to support digitisation has become a priority.

The firm uses a combination of permanent, contract and multi-hire solutions to ensure that the needs of all client businesses can be met.

"2021 was a year of pressure and strain for procurement & supply chain markets globally. Travel restrictions, delays on cargo flights and congested shipping lanes created a multitude of challenges for the smooth operations of supply lanes globally which had a knock-on effect for recruiting and retaining top talent in this field" said Jamie Thorpe, Head of DSJ Global, Hong Kong. "These macro factors created high demand for candidates with extensive experience in Strategic Procurement, Logistics and Supply Chain within a very tight candidate pool. Companies have had to resort to offering very high compensation and benefits to attract the talent they desperately need."
