JD Super Donates Personal Care Products to Female Medical Staff in Wuhan
by Rachel Liu
On February 14th, JD Super, JD’s online supermarket, donated 2,000 sets of feminine care products and nearly 630,000 adult diapers to hospitals through JD Logistics, including the Wuhan Wuchang Hospital, Wuhan Ninth Hospital and Wuhan Hankou Hospital.
Feminine care products are heavily needed now at the frontline. It has been reported that there are over 100,000 female workers as frontline staff in Hubei province. Responding to this need, JD Super immediately checked the inventory of feminine care products in Wuhan warehouses and chose to donate Whisper Koala overnight pads and Always Infinity pads to meet this need.
“We immediately reached out to brand partners and took inventory of the needs of the hospitals and frontline workers to offer timely help,” said Xiaofeng Qian, Sales Manager of Self Care Products, JD FMCG (Fast Moving Consumer Goods).
Besides feminine care products, JD Super also worked with brands such as Elderjoy and yiBaShou to donate adult diapers to frontline workers to help them with their personal care problems as they wear protective medical suits.
A doctor at one of the hospitals in Wuhan said: “The protective suits can only be worn once, and we don’t have enough of them. To save resources we have to try not to use the restroom once we put on the suits. The adult diapers can really help us during this hard time.”

JD.com Unveils the Green Impact Partners Alliance, Marking a Bold Step Towards Sustainable Commerce
by Vivian Yang
On September 27, JD.com announced the establishment of the Green Impact Partners Alliance, a milestone in the company’s commitment to fostering sustainable commerce. The Alliance is an integral facet of JD’s ongoing Green Impact Initiative, an expansive commitment to offer environmentally friendly products on its platform.
Several high-profile fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) brands, including Breeze, OMO, and BABO, are among its inaugural members. The Alliance aims to foster collaboration and advocate for green products across three key fronts: efficient supply chain management, insightful consumer-to-manufacturer product design, and impactful marketing cooperation.
Under the banner of the Alliance, JD Super, the supermarket division of JD Retail, is embarking on a series of transformative partnerships:
- JD Forest in Hainan: In collaboration with leading tissue paper manufacturer Breeze, JD.com is establishing JD Forest in Hainan, contributing to reforestation efforts.
- JD Bamboo Forest in Sichuan: Partnering with bamboo pulp tissue manufacturer BABO, JD is creating dedicated bamboo forests in Sichuan, supporting sustainable bamboo production.
- OMO Tree Planting Initiative: JD.com and detergent leader OMO are launching an initiative where every purchase of OMO laundry capsules triggers a one-yuan donation towards tree planting, fostering a virtuous cycle of environmental care.
To encourage environmentally conscious consumption, consumers who purchase these eco-friendly products will receive shopping rewards in their accounts based on their expenses, further incentivizing green choices in everyday shopping.
The Alliance was officially announced at an inauguration ceremony in Beijing, where Qu Feng, CEO of Golden Hongye Paper Group, the parent company of Breeze, Zhang Shuyi, Vice President of the Home Cleaning Division at Unilever China, and representatives from JD jointly reaffirmed their dedication to the shared cause.
Niu Yinghua, Vice President of JD.com and General Manager of the Cleaning, Personal Care, and Maternal and Baby Product Department at JD Retail, stated that nearly one hundred green products have been introduced through the Green Impact Partners Alliance so far. By 2024, the Alliance plans to welcome an additional 20 reputable brands from major FMCG categories, tripling the number of green-labeled product offerings.
The Alliance is poised to benefit from JD’s vast market insights and industry trends, ensuring a broader spectrum of sustainable consumer-to-manufacturer products in collaboration with brand partners. Furthermore, the Alliance partners are poised to co-develop numerous environment-centric marketing campaigns, driving a comprehensive push towards eco-friendly lifestyles.
JD.com’s environmental stewardship has been evident since the launch of its “Green Stream Initiative” in 2017, a collaboration that saw JD Logistics partner with giants including Lego, Wyeth, Kimberly-Clark, and Unilever, focusing on carbon footprint reduction across multiple facets of the supply chain, from warehousing, packaging, and transportation to recycling and engaging over 300,000 companies and millions of consumers. This was further bolstered in 2020 with JD’s “Green Impact Initiative,” which saw partnerships with P&G, L’Oréal, PurCotton, Nestlé, and Abbott to boost sustainable consumption.
With its unwavering dedication to green advancements, JD.com is not just setting industry benchmarks but is also leading by example, steering a global shift toward sustainable

JD Health Dispatches Expert Physician and Donates Critical Supplies for Earthquake Relief in Morocco
by Vivian Yang
JD Health is rapidly mobilizing resources to aid the ongoing earthquake relief efforts in Morocco. On September 14th, we dispatched an expert orthopedic doctor to collaborate with the international disaster response team led by the Beijing One Heart Sphere Charity Foundation. Additionally, we’re coordinating the delivery of essential medical supplies to support the mission.
Dr. Zhang Haijing, a veteran in medical relief with nearly two decades of specialized experience, will represent JD Health in Morocco. His extensive background includes involvement in flood relief, earthquake rescues, counter-terrorism operations, and mass event medical assistance. Since joining JD Health, Dr. Zhang has provided complimentary consultations to hundreds during emergency rescues, drawing from his expertise in wilderness first aid and medical rescue.
The volunteer team will depart at midnight on September 14th, Beijing time. They will bring an initial shipment of critical medical supplies, generously donated by JD Health in partnership with China’s leading medical product manufacturer, HYNAUT. The shipment includes essentials such as iodine swabs, sterile disinfectant swabs, waterproof dressings, adhesive tapes, surgical dressings, non-woven bandages, and N95 masks, among others.
At JD Health, we take immense pride in our team of full-time doctors—92% of whom have over a decade of clinical experience. In addition to offering daily online medical consultations, our doctors are committed to humanitarian work. They have been on the front lines of various disaster relief operations, both domestically and internationally. Following the devastating floods in Henan and Shanxi in 2021, our team provided critical on-site medical support and facilitated the donation of essential disinfection and pharmaceutical supplies. Earlier this year, when a severe earthquake hit West Asia, we were quick to mobilize resources, offering crucial support to local relief efforts. And just last month, we sent doctors to Zhuozhou in Hebei Province, an area heavily impacted by persistent torrential rains.
