This achievement underscores the company’s operational capacity and commitment to service, fueled by growth across China and Southeast Asia.
A Record-Breaking Double 11 Season
During the traditional peak shopping season, J&T Express witnessed unprecedented parcel volumes across its global network. Between October 20 and November 12, the average daily volume in China reached nearly 66 million parcels—a 25% increase from last year.
