JD.com and DHL Sign Memorandum of Understanding to Support German Brands’ Growth in China and Europe

Posted on by Yuchuan Wang

Beijing/Bonn, February 26, 2026: JD.com, Inc., China’s largest retailer by revenue, and DHL Group, the world’s largest logistics provider, today announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding to support German brands’ growth in China and strengthen their presence in European markets through JD.com’s European retail platform, Joybuy. The MoU was signed at JD.com’s headquarters in Beijing.

DHL and JD.com have agreed to collaborate on innovative logistics and e-commerce initiatives, aiming to create seamless, integrated solutions that better connect brands, merchants, and consumers across both continents. Taking advantage of  DHL’s extensive global logistics infrastructure and JD.com’s e-commerce ecosystem, the partnership creates new opportunities for German brands to expand internationally. It further strengthens DHL’s position as the leading logistics partner for brands in Europe, while reinforcing JD.com’s role as a trusted e-commerce gateway for global brands.

Lowering Barriers for German Brands Entering the Chinese Market

Under the MoU aimed at promoting German brands, DHL will introduce them to JD.com, helping German businesses expand their presence in the Chinese market. By engaging JD.com’s cross-border e-commerce business, JINGDONG Cross-border, German brands can sell directly to more than 700 million Chinese consumers on JD.com, without a physical presence or legal entity in China.

By combining the strengths of DHL and JD.com, German brands gain access to a seamless, one-stop solution for entering the Chinese market. DHL and JINGDONG Logistics, JD.com’s logistics arm, will collaborate to design and provide end-to-end integrated logistics solutions, enhancing the overall fulfilment experience from Europe to China. The solution will allow merchants to benefit from a preferential customs duties and VAT scheme for direct B2C shipments, lowering such costs substantially compared to conventional importation.

In addition, JD.com also offers a full range of e-commerce capabilities, including operations, product selection, consumer insights, marketing tools, and more. Combined with DHL’s decades of experience in international shipping and trade facilitation, this creates a uniquely powerful ecosystem for brands expanding into China.

Tobias Meyer, CEO of DHL Group, said: “This partnership will enable a solution that helps DHL customers in Germany and Europe in accessing the vast China market. We combine four elements in a unique solution: the global strength of DHL, the enormous reach of the JD.com platform, a preferential import scheme for B2C shipments and the great fulfillment and delivery capabilities of JD.com in China. The combination of our logistics expertise and JD.com’s established e-commerce capabilities will provide great benefits for German brands to expand internationally through scalable pathways and innovative tools that help merchants connect with consumers in the best possible way.”

Sandy Xu, CEO of JD.com, said: “Many German enterprises have strong products and compelling brand stories. Sustained growth in China requires the right channels and operational infrastructure to directly reach Chinese consumers at scale. Through this MoU with DHL, we aim to combine logistics capabilities, digital infrastructure, and market access to help brands better understand Chinese consumer demand, optimize product positioning and improve go-to-market efficiency, enabling them to focus on long-term growth and brand building.”

As part of this joint initiative, JD.com will also support these German brands in reaching a broader base of European consumers through Joybuy, the company’s new online retail business in Europe. Using its extensive e-commerce experience, Joybuy will provide German enterprises with a new sales channel and expanded retail infrastructure, enabling them to engage more European consumers. This strengthens DHL’s role as the leading enabler of European e-commerce growth, continuously supporting German brands to expand into new markets.

AllianzJD Unveils Enhanced Priority Rescue Service, Delivering Seamless, Borderless Emergency Care Worldwide

Posted on by Vivian Yang

On February 26, 2026, AllianzJD, the joint venture between JD.com and Allianz that combines JD.com’s technology-driven consumer expertise with Allianz’s global leadership in insurance, announced, a major upgrade to its travel insurance “Priority Rescue” service. This industry-first mechanism in China strengthens protection for both outbound travelers from China and inbound international visitors, building a truly borderless safety net for global journeys.

At the core of the upgrade is the principle of “life first, rescue prioritized.” In life-threatening situations, such as serious accidents or sudden acute illnesses, AllianzJD commits to immediate intervention by advancing or guaranteeing medical expenses upfront. This ensures travelers receive prompt professional treatment without financial hurdles, with cost settlement occurring only after the traveler’s condition has stabilized. The approach completely eliminates money-related stress during critical emergencies.

To make this promise reliable worldwide, AllianzJD draws on Allianz’s extensive global network to maintain a comprehensive service infrastructure. It provides 24/7 multilingual customer support, operates a rescue network spanning more than 200 countries and regions, partners with over 1.9 million service providers, and delivers assistance in more than 70 languages. The full process from initial consultation and guidance through rescue coordination to international medical repatriation is seamlessly covered.

The company upholds a strict “530 Rapid Response” standard: rescue requests are accepted within ‘five’ minutes, full activation begins within ‘thirty’ minutes, and native-language response teams engage within one hour via its worldwide emergency medical network. This guarantees fast, equitable, and efficient action no matter the location.

A recent real-world example illustrates the service’s effectiveness. Ms. Qin, insured under an AllianzJD outbound travel policy, sustained serious injuries in a car accident while traveling alone in the Republic of Georgia. Upon receiving the alert, AllianzJD promptly activated Priority Rescue, closely monitored her local treatment, provided expense guarantees, and once her condition stabilized, arranged a medically equipped international return flight to China accompanied by two professional nurses. The repatriation costs for Ms. Qin were fully covered within the policy’s scope.

“In an era of global travel recovery, every traveler’s top priority is peace of mind,” said an AllianzJD spokesperson. “This Priority Rescue upgrade directly meets that need by dismantling traditional barriers in emergency assistance. By harnessing our partners’ combined global resources and networks, we deliver more targeted, efficient, and reliable protection tailored to diverse travel scenarios, truly fulfilling our commitment to safeguard every journey around the world.”

Complementing its outbound offerings, AllianzJD introduced the “Charming China” inbound travel insurance in 2025, specially designed for international visitors to China. This product incorporates the enhanced Priority Rescue service, enabling global tourists to explore the country with greater confidence and security.

Since its establishment in 2018, AllianzJD has effectively integrated JD.com’s advanced digital intelligence and deep insight into the Chinese market with Allianz’s more than 130 years of international insurance leadership and rescue expertise. This powerful partnership has produced a comprehensive portfolio of travel insurance products covering diverse global travel scenarios, earning widespread market recognition for its professional claims handling and emergency response capabilities.

Looking ahead, AllianzJD will continue to leverage the strengths of both partners, drive ongoing product and service innovation, and strengthen its borderless travel safety ecosystem, contributing to the sustainable growth of the global tourism industry.

From Fixed Capacity to Elastic Fulfillment: How JINGDONG Logistics’ LangzuTech Goods-to-Person System Redefines Smart Warehousing

Posted on by Yuchuan Wang
  • Modular, zone-based deployment allows warehouses to scale outputup or down with demand, reshaping fulfillment cost structures.
  • Goods-to-person design leverages up to 12 meters of clear height, significantly increasing storage density and reducing warehousing cost per unit.
  • Successfully deployed across apparel, pharmaceuticals, electronics, FMCG, and full-category warehouses with complex order profiles.

As e-commerce and omnichannel retail continue to evolve globally, logistics and supply chain operators are facing unprecedented operational complexity. Rapid SKU expansion, frequent assortment changes, and extreme order volatility, particularly during peak sales events, are placing growing pressure on traditional warehouse models built around manual labor and fixed capacity.

To address these challenges, JINGDONG Logistics has developed the LangzuTech Tote Handling, a Goods-to-Person (G2P) system.

 

An Integrated Goods-to-Person Architecture Built for Density and Accuracy

 LangzuTech Tote Handling System is a fully integrated G2P solution that combines tote-handling AGVs, lifting robots, high-density three-dimensional racking systems, automated inbound and picking workstations, empty tote return lines, and centralized charging stations into a closed-loop operational flow.

Through intelligent spatial reconfiguration, the system maximizes the use of a clear height under 12 meters, enabling high-density storage that significantly increases space efficiency and lowers unit warehousing costs. Unlike traditional warehouses that rely on strict category-based zoning, it supports multi-SKU, multi-category storage within a single tote, minimizing consolidation and improving order assembly efficiency in mixed-order environments, while fully leveraging warehousing space.

 

Modular Deployment for Faster Time to Value

Unlike conventional automated warehouses that require large upfront investment and rigid capacity planning, LangzuTech Tote Handling System adopts a modular, building-block design. Warehouses can deploy the system by zone, implement it in phases, and scale capacity by flexibly adding or redeploying robots and workstations as demand fluctuates.

This allows operators to increase investment as their business grows. As a result, automation upgrades integrate smoothly into live operations, minimizing disruption while accelerating return on investment.

By shifting from labor-intensive, fixed-capacity models to a more agile, technology-driven framework, JINGDONG Logistics fundamentally reshapes the cost structure of fulfillment operations and lowers the entry barrier to intelligent warehousing for businesses of various sizes.

 

Proven Across Complex, Multi-Category and Regulated Environments

The solution has been successfully deployed across a wide range of industries, including apparel, e-commerce, pharmaceuticals, consumer electronics (3C), FMCG, and beauty.

In large-scale apparel fulfillment centers, where rapid onboarding of new SKUs and fast shelving are critical, it enables five- to sixfold improvements in inbound shelving efficiency without expanding warehouse footprint. In one high-volume apparel operation, hundreds of robots operate collaboratively across dense storage aisles and multiple workstations, supporting daily outbound peaks of over 30,000 orders while significantly improving fulfillment speed and stability.

In pharmaceutical applications, LangzuTech Tote Handling System delivers both efficiency and compliance. Each product is assigned a unique traceability code when it arrives, enabling end-to-end inventory visibility. The system automatically manages storage rules for cold-chain, light-sensitive, and regulated products, while continuously monitoring temperature and humidity. Near-expiry inventory triggers automated alerts, eliminating the need for manual inspections. By leveraging high-density storage and robot-driven handling, a pharmaceutical warehouse using the solution has achieved:

  • Up to 4× storage density on the same footprint
  • 99% picking accuracy
  • Up to50% reduction in per-order handling costs

Order consolidation across multiple downstream outlets further shortens outbound lead times and strengthens overall supply chain responsiveness. In pharmaceutical operations in China, a LangzuTech-powered warehouse feeds hundreds of downstream retail pharmacies in the Beijing region. Without having to expand warehouse footprint, the overall processing capacity has increased by approximately 600%, compared with pre-automation operations.

LangzuTech Tote Handling Solution has now entered a phase of large-scale replication and deployment, supporting JINGDONG Logistics’ broader vision of building efficient, resilient, and sustainable supply chains worldwide.

As JINGDONG Logistics continues to expand its global warehouse network, which now includes more than 130 overseas, bonded and direct mail facilities worldwide, the LangzuTech solutions provide a standardized, yet flexible automation foundation that can be adapted to diverse regulatory, operational, and industry environments.

JD.com Announces JD Museum

Posted on by April Chai

Shenzhen, China, January 20, 2026 — JD.com announces the JD Museum, an institution for contemporary visual and performing arts and culture, opening in late 2027, in the new headquarters of JD.com, situated in the Shenzhen Bay Super Headquarters Base.

The Museum will be established in a building designed by Büro Ole Scheeren, described as a “Scenic City”, with spatial design by Neri&Hu Design and Research Office. Encompassing more than 10,000 square meters, the Museum will have dedicated facilities for live performances, immersive installations, exhibitions, participatory workshops, and creative retail.

Mission: From Shenzhen to the World, Connecting People through Art and Technology

Rooted in JD.com’s mission of “Making Lives Better through Technology,” JD Museum is dedicated to connecting people through art and technology. The Museum will engage with and support a community of artists and audiences in achieving excellence and cultivating shared values, modeling a lifestyle of the future through exhibitions, education, research, publishing, commissioning and collecting.

At the heart of the Greater Bay Area (GBA) and with the full support of JD.com, JD Museum’s program will focus on art as a cross-disciplinary experience. In addressing the pressing issues of today—technology, ecology, urbanism—through a balanced approach to technological progress and tactile human experience, the Museum will emphasize the work of translation and presentation, promoting accessibility to young people and the local community.

Leadership: Robin Peckham Announced as Executive Director

Under the direction of the museum committee, JD Museum is led by Executive Director Robin Peckham, heading a dedicated Shenzhen-based team.

Peckham is a curator and editor who has served as Co-Director of Taipei Dangdai Art & Ideas (2019-2025) and Editor-in-Chief of LEAP, the international art magazine of contemporary China (2014-2019). He has organized exhibitions on art, technology, popular culture, and the family for Ullens Center for Contemporary Art, Fosun Foundation, and K11 Art Foundation, with his show “Art Post-Internet” listed by ARTnews as one of the 20 most important art exhibitions of the 2010s.

“I am thrilled to help launch a new cultural chapter for a company that is already one of the most fascinating stories in the development of the Chinese technology sector,” says Peckham. “Shenzhen feels like the most exciting place in the world to explore the intersection of art and technology right now.”

2026 Public Programs: Unboxing JD Museum

In the two years prior to its official opening in Shenzhen, JD Museum will introduce itself to the world in the form of “Unboxing JD Museum.” This community art initiative will invite creative input from artists, curators, architects, and the JD.com community — including employees and their families and friends. It will take the shape of a pop-up workshop and exhibition series utilizing JD.com’s iconic delivery boxes. Further details on the open call, exhibition tour, and employee participation initiatives will be announced later in 2026.
