The ambassador said he supports deepened communication and exchange between JD and Pakistani enterprises. Pakistan has been actively developing its digital economy, rolling out new policies to support small and medium-sized enterprises to develop e-commerce, according to him.

“It’s a good time to develop cross-border e-commerce in Pakistan,” said Ambassador Haque.

JD started partnering with the large Pakistani logistics company Transfreight in October, bringing JD’s warehouse management system to the country.

The ambassador said the cooperation with Transfreight was a smart choice, and hoped there will be more exchanges in the fields of supply chain and fintech.

“JD has accumulated experiences in supply chain and retail in the past 16 years,” said Huang . “In the future, we hope to bring more technologies and experiences in retail and logistics to Pakistan, supporting the country’s drive to develop the digital economy.”
