In the logistics personnel, land and capital are quite intensive industry, alibaba is more influence in their own way.
As following Tmall taobao electricity system, the ant gold after the payment system of the third strategy, rookie logistics from 2013 at the beginning of the birth will be seen as a mark of Mr. Ma going into logistics.
According to incomplete statistics, alibaba's rookie logistics five big logistics park is under construction, distributed in north China, east China, south China, southwest and central China, with a total area of more than 1 million square meters. In number, a rookie in addition to built two warehouse in tianjin, zhejiang jinhua and the one between yiwu, guangzhou, also in 3 places built three fresh positions; And shandong will open a new warehouse at once. There are four bonded warehouse and some small home appliance, warehousing.
Frequent enclosure caused outside that builds a lot of question, the most serious criticism from the Commerce Department deputy inspector of the nie Lin hai, he thinks that Mr Ma go slanting, "built around logistics base storage, because tempted."
Alibaba have been denied, rookie also never directly hire a Courier. But rookie why take positions on a large scale?
Rookie insider told journalists interface, rookie's goal is to establish a nationwide more points warehouse, storage and distribution of cooperation mode, storage can be open to the logistics company. "Rookie built each of the logistics park is not only for the novice they use, logistics park is in the service of the merchants. Many other electrical contractor may choose from rookie match barn delivery goods, such as Vipshop."
According to the plan of alibaba, novice network planning in 5 to 8 years, building a national super logistics network. The network can be the goods within 24 hours to any domestic areas, can support the daily average of 30 billion yuan RMB (year 10 trillion) the huge amount of online retail sales. This requires a massive storage network for support.
Rookie logistics network monitoring data, according to the 2014, Tmall and taobao parcel of China's express delivery market share of more than 60%, therefore, novice to track record of more than 1.5 million Courier LanShou, delivery and the real-time condition of the package, daily order quantity is over 30 million.
In order to ensure that these packages fast distribution, service, and increase the quantity of the warehouse becomes very necessary.
Rookie of the most common way is to build, build and rent three categories. In addition, the acquisition is one of the solutions. In May 2015, one is the closest rookie bought amazon 20000 square meters of storage center in Shanghai. Including the latter advanced sorting equipment, according to the category of the ali platform changes of storage.
Rookie warehouse the increase in the number of even take up a new industry, warehouse management, such as to make Tmall supermarket warehouse management heart yi logistics company.
Grace XingWei introduce chairman heart, heart diet will expand overseas warehouse together as rookie, which has enabled Australia storehouse. The United States, Italy, Han Guocang will gradually enable this year.
Alibaba has always been to big data calls itself. In order to move the logistics industry from offline to online, novice to launch a large number of data products, such as double tenth before a 2013 launch logistics early warning radar, improve the delivery network informatization degree of "eagle eye" project, improve the efficiency of the shipping electronic surface list, etc. Rookie company which is not of a large shop people shop outlets like jingdong logistics important reasons, so far, rookie team only about 700 people, and more than half are product and technology team.
Alibaba will be his best "platform" advantage again play in the logistics, "integration" is a rookie logistics keywords.
Integration of ideas from rookie initial ownership structure can be seen, start-up capital of 5 billion yuan, Tmall account for 43% of the shares, investment of RMB 2.15 billion yuan; Yintai investment 1.6 billion, 32% of the shares, inferior, fosun group, motion, a "three links" and so on all have a stake.
Alibaba cooperation with suning, suning, including four hubs, 12 automatic sorting center, 60 regional distribution center, distribution center 660 cities and 660 PeiSongDian are likely to dock with the rookie, detail negotiation is still in progress. In addition, the rookie also with more than 10 provincial government to sign the agreement.
On September 5, 2015 in the ant gold clothing enterprise of the public information, the Beijing postal center has become the shareholder investment.

In fact, as early as April this year, the partnership has been launched, the thousands of postal point of 5000 will be open to rookie send parcel. It is important to note that this is the first time as a state-owned enterprises of China post with the private sector cooperation, Shared resources.
Abroad, in order to solve the differences of different national logistics development, alibaba created more logistics lines, namely commonly known as the "line". Shipments after reaching a certain size, can through the integration of local logistics system, contact with the customs opened the shuttle service.
Movement is frequent, in the first half of 2015, alibaba trade logistics has to include UPS, Fedex, 4 px ITELLA in Russia, southeast Asia, Korea and so on, more global logistics partners. The latest cooperation was in August 2015, just talk about down, fast logistics.

In the future, all the documents involved in the foreign trade letter of credit, insurance and can be endorsed by alibaba.
Credit endorsement shorten logistics time, in addition to relying on platform built bonded warehouse also became a way of improving the efficiency of international logistics. When import, customs clearance inspection is the place where the most time consuming. If we can make good use of bonded warehouse in advance, make customs clearance in advance, let the customs know what is the goods in the bonded warehouse, it is likely to reduce the time to the international logistics.
Investment is a greater level of strategy. On July 8, 2015 and July 8, 2015, alibaba invested 187.1 million yuan (about 833 million yuan) in Singapore, to increase about 5% of Singapore postal, want to borrow the Singapore convenience of using the "" the upu postal, under the international postal system have more advantageous bargaining chip.
From alibaba's statistics, in recent years double double tenth is a package quantity growth, 2013, 2013 single packages let rookie has experienced the pain of "blowing up" user complaints. But in 2014 a double tenth, novice can already all sent within 10 days after 278 million, the progress or accelerate the cooperation pattern of with alibaba storehouse to speed up the pass. The development of e-commerce in the sales platform flattening at the same time, also will bring a shortening of the supply chain.
