Jumia向非洲第三方开放物流服务

Jumia宣布其物流服务现在已经可以提供给第三方使用。Jumia的物流服务在非洲市场上应用于电子商务订单配送和餐饮生鲜配送。现在，Jumia的物流服务希望利用其网络向在非洲11个国家/地区进行最后一公里交付的第三方企业开放。

Jumia has announced that its logistics service is now available for use by third parties. Till now, Jumia’s logistics services were reserved for e-commerce and food vendors operating on its marketplace. Its logistics services are now open to third party businesses who wish to leverage its network, technology and expertise for last mile deliveries across 11 countries in Africa. 

Jumia物流服务高级副总裁Apoorva Kumar表示：“我们的技术和最后一公里服务覆盖面非常广，可以缩短配送时间，可靠的妥投包裹并提供清晰的配送信息，所有这些都为Jumia的成功做出了贡献，在城市和农村地区。我们很荣幸能与更多业务部门共享此服务，并为第三方提供新的发展机会。”

Senior vice president Logistics Services at Jumia, Apoorva Kumar, said, “Our technology and last mile services have a wide coverage that enhances faster turnaround time, reliable handling of products and transparent reporting, all of which have contributed to the success of Jumia, both in urban and rural areas. We are proud to share this technology with a broader set of businesses and give them new opportunities to grow.”

Jumia的物流服务为适应非洲市场，有两个鲜明特征：首先是市场针对性，可以根据服务质量，网络可行性和妥投成本等多个参数来汇总需求并将其与供应能力相匹配。第二个是物流网络覆盖率高，覆盖包括遍布Jumia的11个国家/地区市场（包括偏远地区）的20多个仓库和1300多个卸货站和提货站。在2019年，通过和300多个不同规模的物流合作伙伴的无缝整合，此外，与道达尔（Total），Vivo Energy和肯尼亚邮政（Posta Kenya）等公司的合作伙伴关系使Jumia在非洲大陆开展业务的11个国家/地区更具影响力。

The company's logistics marketplace is uniquely adapted to Africa, based on two main pillars. The first is its proprietary technology which aggregates demand and matches it with supply capacity on the basis of several parameters like quality of service, reachability of network and cost of delivery. The second pillar is its logistics network, which includes among its physical locations over 20 warehouses (north of 110, 000 sqm) and more than 1,300 drop-off stations and pick-up stations, located across Jumia’s 11-country market, including in remote areas. In 2019, thanks to the seamless integration of more than 300 logistics partners of all sizes. In addition, partnerships with players such as Total, Vivo Energy and Posta Kenya allow for an even wider presence across the 11 countries where Jumia operates on the continent.

“非洲各国的企业正在重新核算成本，尤其是在新冠疫情席卷全球期间。对于许多企业来说，物流是主要的成本因素，并且难以管理。Jumia拥有完善的基础设施、人员、合作伙伴和技术，可以帮助第三方和合作伙伴解决物流和营销方面的挑战。我们相信我们可以以更低的成本提供更好的服务质量。”Kumar。

"Businesses across the countries are re-examining their costs, especially during Covid-19. For many, logistics is a major cost driver and headache to manage. We have the right infrastructure, people, partnerships and technology required to help third parties and partners solve logistics and marketing challenges. We believe we can provide better quality of service at lower cost,” Kumar added.

在过去的几个月中，Jumia已成功地与选定的客户一起测试物流服务，从小型企业每周发送少量包裹到大型公司。“我们与Jumia的新合作构成了我们在未来5年内增加电子商务销售额的战略中不可或缺的一部分。公司处理物流的独特能力：在全国范围内进行订单管理，操作，运输和交付以及向最终用户收款，这为我们打开了一种新的途径，可以更快，更高效地送达我们的消费者，尤其是在新冠疫情期间。”肯尼亚食品工业有限公司CEO，约瑟夫·乔格说。

Over the last few months, Jumia has been successfully piloting its offering with selected clients, from small businesses shipping a few packages every week to larger corporations. “Our new partnership with Jumia forms an integral part of our strategy to grow our e-commerce sales in the next 5 years. The company's unique ability to handle logistics – order management and processing, shipping and delivery and payments across the country to end users has opened for us a new way to reach our consumers in a fast efficient and effective manner more so especially during this time of Covid-19 pandemic,” said Joseph Choge, CEO Premier Food Industries Ltd Kenya.

“ Jumia正在通过陆运和空运向尼日利亚各地的客户提供我们的‘home card delivery service'。我们发现Jumia的物流供应链解决方案具有很高的价值；与Jumia的技术结合物流信息一目了然并确保产品的最后一公里配送安全妥投。”尼日利亚第一城市纪念碑银行有限公司（FCMB），Temitope Onibaniyi。

“Jumia is facilitating the deliveries of our ‘home card delivery service’ via road and air freight to customers across Nigeria. We see a lot of value in Jumia’s supply chain solution; technology integration with Jumia ensures close to real time visibility and a secure last mile delivery process of card products," said Temitope Onibaniyi, First City Monument Bank Limited (FCMB) Nigeria.

此举对所有Jumia Logistics本地合作伙伴也将起到推动作用，这些合作伙伴将能够通过Jumia物流网络提高销量。“多年来，我们一直是Jumia的物流合作伙伴。我们的物流业务已发展成为一个庞大的部门，如今已拥有25个运营商和约44名员工，分布在多个城市，所有业务均整合在一起。我们已使用Jumia的应用程序调整了业务，以提高效率和客户体验。尼日利亚ACOA Logistics CEO Chidi Jud表示，我们很高兴能够收到更多的订单，以帮助我们扩大规模并发展业务。

This move is also a boost for all Jumia Logistics local partners who will be able to drive more volume through the Jumia logistics network. “We have been Jumia’s logistics partner for many years. Our business has grown into an expansive operation hosting today 25 carriers and about 44 staff spanning multiple cities, all held together by its integrated technology.
