Ttkexpress vs Jingdong is a contract dispute

TTKEXPRESS, AN EXPRESS DELIVERY COMPANY, announced on Thursday it is suing its partner Jingdong, one of the largest e-commerce companies in China, claiming it is interfering in its business. Southern Metropolis Daily comments:

Ttkexpress claims Jingdong is trying to restrict it to doing business with only clients designated by Jingdong.

Jingdong operates its own logistics company, as well as 16 contracted express-delivery companies, including Ttkexpress. The other 15 delivery companies have so far not made any similar complaints against Jingdong, which suggests that the e-commerce company is not trying to elbow out all of its contracted express delivery companies, so as to benefit its own delivery company.
