JD.com, also known as JINGDONG, has been named to the Gartner Supply Chain Top 25 for 2025 for the second consecutive year. The recognition underscores the company’s excellence in the global supply chain sector driven by sustained innovation. As the 22nd ranked company, JD.com remains the only Chinese retailer to be included in the Top 25, joined by global supply chain leaders including Apple, Amazon, P&G, Unilever, Walmart and more.
As the industry’s most prestigious ranking, Gartner Top 25 evaluates companies based on key areas including financial metrics, ESG performance, and expert opinion. Gartner also identified three success drivers shaping this year’s rankings: -autonomous operations, agentic AI, and water stewardship.
Technology Drives Efficiency Elevation
Since launching its comprehensive technology transformation in 2017, JD.com has invested more than RMB 140 billion in R&D. By the end of 2024, the company’s supply chain infrastructure assets increased to RMB 161 billion, up 12% year-on-year.
These investments have helped fuel the company’s highly efficient operations. Managing over 10 million self-operated SKUs, JD.com maintained an impressive inventory turnover of approximately 30 days in 2024. The company also launched TimeHF, its first self-developed billion-scale time series forecasting model, improving forecast accuracy by over 10% and enhancing scientific and accurate inventory management.
Smart Logistics for Speedy Fulfillment
JINGDONG Logistics (also known as JD Logistics) operates over 40 “Asia No.1” intelligent logistics parks across China, where AI-powered scheduling robots work alongside warehousing staff to improve storage efficiency by 10%.

The “Logistics Brain” system powers dozens of real-world business scenarios across JD.com’s network. For example, the “Courier Assistant” and “Smart Station Manager” use AI to reduce manual hours and enhance management efficiency at front delivery stations. In agriculture, blockchain-based traceability platforms have helped increase fruit and vegetable sales by 30%, while spatial-temporal intelligence tools have shortened store location planning cycles by 80%.
Guided by the principle of bringing goods as close as possible to the customer, JD.com has continued to optimize its logistics network and delivery processes by minimizing handling steps and shortening transportation distance.

During this year’s 618 promotion, JINGDONG Logistics (JD Logistics) achieved a new milestone by delivering fresh lychees from Guangdong’s Lingnan orchards to consumers in major Chinese cities within just 24 hours. This feat was made possible through a combination of air transport, high-speed rail connections, dedicated cold-chain routes, and expanded cold-storage networks. Advanced sorting equipment deployed at production sites ensured both speed and freshness. JINGDONG Logistics’ “Integrated Delivery & Installation” service achieved a year-on-year surge exceeding 300% in orders for large home appliances.

JD couriers collectively traveled approximately 14.4 million kilometers every day during the event—a distance equivalent to circling the globe 360 times.
New business models are driving transformative upgrades for local industries. JD Super, the supermarket division of JD.com, is now collaborating with more than 100 specialized agricultural belts nationwide, helping farmers to establish over 1 million mu (or approximately 66,667 hectares) of JD-certified production bases. These efforts not only boost sales of regional specialties like Lingnan lychees but also pass savings directly to consumers through streamlined farm-to-table pricing.
On the technology front, JD Technology’s Digital Representatives powered over 17,000 brand live-streaming rooms. These AI virtual assistants went beyond merely handling overnight broadcasts; they actively engaged with audiences across multiple time slots, gaining widespread popularity. Crucially, the technology lowered the barriers to entry for smaller businesses, enabling even modestly resourced merchants to easily adopt and benefit from 24/7 interactive sales channels. Meanwhile, JD Cloud’s JoyBuild, a large language model-development platform powering the festival’s technical backbone, saw its API calls surge by 212% compared to the same period last year.
