JD Logistics has become the only logisitcs business in the world to be recognised in the top 20 companies in the category: “ICT Applications – E-Environment” at the WSIS (World Summit on the Information Society) Awards, 2025.
JD Logisitics’ (also known as JINGDONG Logistics) project: “Shared Supply Chain Carbon Emission Reduction Based on MRV-T Technology”, beat off stiff competiton from more than 1,000 global entries, underscoring its leadership in technology-driven carbon reduction and sustainable supply chain innovation.
The project focuses on supply chain decarbonization and is powered by JD Logistics’ self-developed SaaS platform, the Supply Chain Emission Management Platform (SCEMP). SCEMP is China’s first all-category, internationally certified carbon management SaaS platform. The platform enables end-to-end, precise monitoring, reporting, verification (MRV), and performance tracking of Scope 3 carbon emissions across supply chains. JD Logistics also works closely with upstream and downstream supply chain participants to foster a collaborative low-carbon ecosystem, significantly reducing climate impact across the broader production and manufacturing sectors.
WSIS is the world’s largest multistakeholder summit focused on “ICT for Development.” The summit is dedicated to advancing the role of information and communication technologies (ICT) in fostering a sustainable global information society. Jointly organized by ITU, UNESCO, UNDP, and UNCTAD, the summit recognizes organizations worldwide for their contributions to accelerating socioeconomic progress. This recognition affirms JD Logistics’ contribution to harnessing technology for global sustainability.
SCEMP is the only solution that integrates ISO 14064, ISO 14083, ISO 14068, and the Smart Freight Centre’s GLEC Framework, pioneering a distributed carbon ledger model that enables SKU-level carbon footprint tracking across the supply chain. Each carbon emission record is independently verifiable, transparent, and traceable. Since 2024, JD Logistics has extended its MRV-T technology to the consumer sector, making it possible to quantify carbon reductions from green consumption and sustainable deliveries.
To date, SCEMP has tracked the carbon footprint of over 100 million orders, with cumulative carbon reductions surpassing 500 tons. The platform now supports more than 100 global brands and over 60,000 enterprise carbon accounts, providing a strong data foundation for companies advancing toward low-carbon transformation.
JD Logistics continues to drive innovation across key areas including packaging, warehousing, and transportation. By working hand-in-hand with partners across the supply chain, JD Logistics is building a green ecosystem that supports shared environmental progress.

JD Super Signs RMB 500 Million Procurement Deal with Major Australian Beef Suppliers
JD Super, the supermarket division under JD.com, has signed a major procurement agreement worth RMB 500 million (USD 70 million) with three leading Australian beef suppliers: Coles, Bindaree Food Group, and Stanbroke. This partnership marks a significant step in JD Super’s effort to source high-quality global products directly from producers, provide Chinese consumers with premium, cost-effective imported beef, and open new opportunities for international partners.
The deal encompasses a diverse selection of premium beef products, including grass-fed, grain-fed, Angus, and Wagyu beef, all sourced directly from these industry leaders. Coles, an iconic Australian retailer dating back more than 110 years, handles more than 500,000 cattle annually and is known for its high-quality standards. Bindaree, a prominent global supplier, is expanding its Myola feedlot to a capacity of 35,000 cattle and handles over 5,000 cattle each week. Stanbroke, an industry leader, manages 1.2 million hectares of pastureland and produces internationally certified Wagyu, Angus, and both grass- and grain-fed beef.
This collaboration enables Australian beef producers to address key challenges in the Chinese market, such as low brand recognition and high retail prices caused by traditional multi-layer distribution. By partnering directly with JD Super, these suppliers gain access to Chinese consumers more easily, cut out middlemen to offer more competitive prices, and strengthen their brand awareness in China.
JD Super, which is the only e-commerce platform sourcing beef directly from Australia, leverages JD’s vast customer base of nearly 600 million active users and advanced digital infrastructure to boost partners’ visibility and sales. Through targeted traffic support, effective consumer feedback tools, and JD’s intelligent supply chain, suppliers gain valuable insights into consumer preferences, allowing them to refine their products and foster greater brand loyalty and repeat business.
“This partnership strengthens JD Super’s supply chain, ensuring a stable and diverse range of high-quality Australian beef for our customers,” said a JD Super spokesperson in the fresh food division. “We are dedicated to working with top global suppliers to deliver exceptional products at great value, while helping our partners grow and increase brand recognition.”
JD Super aims to deepen its relationships with leading global producers, create value for partners, and bring superior quality products to consumers around the world.
