Lazada moves warehouse ops to SingPost's e-commerce logistics hub

The two will partner to meet rising e-commerce demand in the region.

Online shopping firm Lazada announced its move to transfer its entire warehouse operations to Singapore Post's Regional e-commerce Logistics Hub in Tampines Logistics Park.

Backed by Alibaba, the move allows the two firms to leverage on each other’s strengths to meet rising e-commerce demand in Southeast Asia.

“Moving Lazada Singapore’s entire warehouse operations to the SingPost Regional eCommerce Logistics Hub is the next natural step as we seek closer integration with our partners to better serve the needs of Singapore customers,” CEO of Lazada Singapore Alexis Lanternier said.

Here's more from the Lazada and SingPost:

This combination of strengths in eCommerce and logistics will enable both companies to be in a leading position in the industry to serve a wider spectrum of customers, both in Singapore and the region. This also emphasises Lazada’s aim to work together with the wider eCommerce ecosystem in Singapore

SingPost Regional eCommerce Logistics Hub consolidates and integrates both warehousing and delivery hub capabilities into one building. With an integrated, end-to-end solution housed in one building, SingPost is able to provide Lazada with improved efficiency, resulting in a faster turnaround time.
