JD.com will open a third e-commerce warehouse in the U.S.
The facility comes as part of a larger plan to build a logistics network capable of providing two-day delivery coverage across the entire U.S.
JD.com's 1.3-million-square-foot facility will add 300 jobs and complement its existing two warehouses in New Jersey and Georgia.
- The company specializes in developing highly automated, self-operating e-commerce logistics facilities that allow it to extend order cut-off times.
- JD.com claims that its level of automation allows each warehouse to boost its number of accessible storage units from 10,000 to 35,000.
- The company said it aims to leverage Chinese-style logistics systems to "address supply chain challenges in North America."
- JD Logistics's revenue grew by 31% YoY for Q4 and rose by 31% for the full year of 2022.
