2024 cross-border e-commerce supply chain breakout battle: how to solve the global delivery problem with digital intelligence?
Industry status: explosive growth behind the invisible battlefield
according to the statistics of the General Administration of Customs, the total import and export volume of China's cross-border e-commerce exceeded 2.3 trillion yuan in 2023, an increase of 15.6 percent over the same period last year. However, under the rapid growth, 47.6 percent of sellers said in the "Global E-commerce Logistics Survey" that supply chain issues have become the primary bottleneck restricting development.
Three core pain points hit the seller's lifeblood:

-
compliance costs climb: EU's new tariff bill increases SME clearance costs by 18%
-
inventory turnover imbalance: overseas warehouse unsold inventory accounted for up to 34%, capital occupancy rate exceeded the industry warning line
break key: the next generation of supply chain 4 major evolutionary direction
1. Reconstructing logistics network
with intelligent warehouse distribution algorithm (incorporating technical advantages)
-
based on machine learning to predict regional sales volume, dynamically adjust the warehouse storage of 6 major hubs in the United States/Europe/Southeast Asia.
-
case: A 3C brand realizes Los Angeles warehouse explosive preset through intelligent warehouse distribution system, and the proportion of orders in the United States increased to 67% the next day.
2. The digital hub of customs clearance breaks down barriers to

3. Full-link visualization brings decision-making revolution
(showing technology differentiation)
-
networking of temperature/vibration sensors from the factory to the overseas warehouse reduces the loss rate of fresh products by 42%
-
the funds kanban simultaneously presents logistics costs, tariff prepayments, VAT pending data, cash flow visibility increased by 300
