Logistics businesses bank on digital supply chains for tech innovation

Logistics companies in China are increasingly relying on tech innovation, related to supply chains, to cater to the growing needs of e-commerce and cross-border trade platforms.

Digitalized supply chain, a broader concept for how technologies like cloud-based systems, data analysis, and artificial intelligence have reshaped supply chain operations, is now the top priority for most of the major logistic companies.

"China's logistic industry is becoming more tech savvy," Feng Gengzhong, deputy head of China Society of Logistics, said at a recent industry forum in Xi'an, Shaanxi province.
