SHANGHAI, China, Sept. 25, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Baozun Inc. (Nasdaq:BZUN) ("Baozun" or the "Company"), the leading e-commerce solutions provider in China, today announced that operations at the Company's seventh logistics warehouse ("the Beijing warehouse") in Beijing began in September 2015.
The Beijing warehouse is the Company's first warehouse in northern China and is the third opened this year. With the addition of the Beijing warehouse, the Company now operates warehouses with an aggregate gross floor area of close to 100,000 m2. In addition to the warehouses in Guangzhou, Suzhou and Hong Kong, the Beijing warehouse will seamlessly fit into the Company's overall e-commerce logistics network in China and strengthen its presence in northern China allowing it to reduce transportation costs and delivery times to provide next day delivery service to core northern cities.
The geographic expansion of the Company's warehouses will provide its brand partners with ample resources to meet the enormous surge that takes place in the days following China'sNovember 11 Singles' Day shopping festival in a timely and efficient manner.
"The opening of our seventh warehouse in Beijing will strengthen our logistical presence in Northern China and allow us to provide a better end-to-end ecommerce solution to our brand partners," commented Mr. Vincent Qiu, Chief Executive Officer of Baozun. "With November 11 rapidly approaching, warehouse overload is a major concern for each of our brand partners. Last year, Baozun delivered over 1 million orders during the shopping festival. With that number expected to surge this year, it is extremely important for us to prepare for this by expanding our regional logistical infrastructure to increase logistical efficiency, lower shipping costs and provide better services. I am confident that we will be able to meet the surge and provide better fulfillment services with the addition of the Beijing warehouse this year. We will continue to expand our logistical infrastructure by establishing new warehouses in strategic locations across China to further improve our fulfillment efficiency and support long-term growth."
