[Press] J&T Express Releases 2025 ESG Report: From Smart Logistics to Social Responsibility, Writing a New Chapter in Sustainability

By J&T Marketing Team on 28 Apr, 2026 4:38:59 PM

Hong Kong, 27 April 2026 – J&T Global Express Limited (“J&T Express” or “J&T” or “the Company”, stock code: 01519), a global logistics service provider, today released its 2025 Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Report. The report comprehensively presents the Company's latest practices and achievements in intelligent operations, energy management, employee rights protection, talent development, business ethics management, and social welfare, demonstrating its firm commitment to integrating sustainable development concepts into its global logistics network and continuously promoting high-quality development.

Deepening Green Operations and Continuously Promoting Energy Conservation and Carbon Reduction

Over the past year, J&T Express has continued to advance smart logistics and energy transition, utilizing technologies such as AI and big data throughout the entire process of pickup, sorting, line-haul transportation, and delivery to optimize transportation routes, improve transit and sorting efficiency, and enhance last-mile delivery capabilities. In terms of transit, by the end of 2025, J&T Express had put into operation a total of 14 self-built core logistics parks globally, with a total gross floor area of 1.05 million square meters. In addition, the Company has invested heavily in energy-saving logistics equipment, deploying over 150,000 permanent magnet synchronous motorized rollers and more than 400 energy-saving conveyor belts. In terms of last-mile transportation, J&T Express is accelerating the construction of an autonomous vehicle delivery network, with the number of autonomous vehicles put into operation exceeding 1,000 by the end of 2025, leveraging intelligent algorithms to achieve optimal route planning and improve last-mile delivery efficiency. In terms of green packaging, the cumulative deployment of reusable transit bags globally reached approximately 38.27 million, with cumulative usage reaching approximately 3.33 billion times.

In terms of low-carbon transportation, J&T Express has continuously promoted the use of clean and electric transportation vehicles. In China, the Company had been investing in new LNG tractors in 2025, bringing the total to 1,697, accounting for 30% of the total number of self-owned tractors, with the greenhouse gas emission intensity of self-owned line-haul vehicles decreasing by 6% compared to 2024. The Philippines took the lead in achieving 100% use of B5 biodiesel for vehicle transportation; Singapore introduced electric trucks, accounting for 6% of its total truck fleet. At the same time, the Company promoted the coordinated development of green transportation methods such as railway and maritime transport, further optimizing the transportation structure and improving efficiency.

Strengthening Employee Care and Safeguarding Rights and Growth

J&T Express continues to create an open, inclusive, and equal-opportunity work environment, improving its employee care system around career growth, health management, and employee welfare and care. In China, the 2025 J&T Express Co., Ltd. (Entire Network) Platform Algorithm and Labor Rules Agreement was implemented in Shanghai last July, becoming the first network-wide algorithm negotiation agreement in China's express delivery industry. It covers over 290,000 workers in J&T Express's self-operated and franchise outlets across provinces and regions in Chinese Mainland. Focusing on three major issues: salary protection, career development, and algorithm transparency, it further improves the rights protection mechanism for workers in new forms of employment.

In terms of talent development, J&T Express systematically advanced the construction of a multi-level talent training system around four strategic directions: "building channels, supplying talent, strengthening overseas presence, and solidifying foundations." In 2025, the total number of courses on the digital training and knowledge management platform for global employees increased by 60% year-over-year (YoY), and total training hours increased by 2.8 times YoY. In addition, during the reporting period, the Company organized and participated in various safety training sessions globally over 27,000 times, covering over 1.4 million participants, continuously consolidating its safety culture and employee protection foundation.

Fulfilling Social Responsibilities and Supporting Local Community Development

J&T Express continued to carry out social welfare actions in areas such as rural revitalization, educational public welfare, and post-disaster assistance. In Chongqing, China, the Company introduced drones for the first time to collect and transport navel oranges in mountainous areas, with a single drone providing a daily transport capacity of up to 10,000 kilograms, effectively reducing labor costs for fruit farmers. In Thailand, the Company partnered with the Department of Agricultural Extension to launch fresh fruit logistics services, facilitating the efficient circulation of agricultural products.

In terms of emergency disaster relief, the Company's teams in various countries continued to participate in disaster assistance efforts. Following the fire in Tai Po, Hong Kong, J&T Express swiftly initiated a special donation of HK$10 million and delivered 300 sets of daily necessities to temporary shelters. After the floods in Indonesia, the Company's Indonesian headquarters chartered flights to transport 13 tons of supplies to severely affected areas, supporting the affected population in restoring their livelihoods.

Improving Business Ethics and Building a Solid Global Compliance Bottom Line

In terms of business ethics and compliance management, J&T Express continued to improve its global governance system, which is coordinated by the Group headquarters and executed locally by subsidiaries, covering multiple dimensions such as anti-corruption, fair competition, and supply chain compliance. During the reporting period, the Company conducted special training on anti-money laundering, counter-terrorist financing, and anti-corruption for directors and senior management, achieving a 100% coverage rate. It also carried out integrity education and training, covering over 89,000 participants cumulatively, and extended compliance requirements to the supply chain system, further solidifying the foundation for global operations.

Dylan Tey, Chief Financial Officer of J&T Express, stated: "Within J&T's rapidly developing global logistics network, ESG has evolved from a concept into concrete operational capabilities. Over the past year, we have proactively explored green transportation transformation and the governance of new forms of employment, including advancing diversified low-carbon transportation solutions and establishing one of the industry's first algorithm negotiation mechanisms. These relevant practices have received multiple industry recognitions. Looking ahead, J&T will continue to leverage technology to empower operations and let responsibility drive growth, continuously improving our ESG governance system and the quality of information disclosure to create long-term value for key stakeholders including global customers, employees, and communities."

[Press] J&T Express Reports 18.5% YoY Revenue Growth for FY2025

By J&T Marketing Team on 1 Apr, 2026 9:31:05 AM

Hong Kong, 30 March 2026 - J&T Global Express Limited (“J&T Express” or “J&T” or “the Company”, stock code: 01519), a global logistics service provider, announced its annual results for 2025. In 2025, the Company's total parcel volume crossed the 30-billion mark for the first time, reaching 30.1 billion, representing a 22.2% year-over-year ("YoY") increase. Full-year total revenue reached US$12.2 billion, up 18.5% YoY, demonstrating that the Company's global network spanning 13 countries continues to unleash strong growth momentum.

The Company’s profitability continued to improve, with adjusted net profit reaching US$425 million, up 112.3% YoY, exceeding Bloomberg consensus expectations. Among them, the Southeast Asia market achieved a trifecta of "volume growth, market share expansion, and profit improvement," with adjusted EBIT surging 77.5% YoY to US$538 million. In New Markets, just three years after launching operations in 2022, adjusted EBIT turned positive for the first time, recording US$4 million. In the China market, amid intense industry competition and the "anti-involution" policy backdrop, the Company maintained profit resilience through effective cost control, with adjusted EBIT at US$94 million.

Dylan Tey, Chief Financial Officer of J&T Express, commented: "2025 was a year of fruitful achievements for J&T’s globalization strategy. Our global parcel volume and revenue both recorded strong growth, and free cash flow increased significantly by 96.1% to US$494 million. Our leadership in the Southeast Asia market has been consolidated, with profitability significantly enhanced; New Markets also achieved profitability within just three years, marking an important milestone in our globalization journey; and in China, we continued to optimize operations and reduce costs, with cost per parcel hitting a record low of US$0.28, maintaining a strong competitive advantage."

Southeast Asia Business Ranked First in the Industry for the Sixth Consecutive Year; Leadership in Market Share Expands

J&T’s leadership position in the Southeast Asia market became even more solid in 2025. The Company’s parcel volume in Southeast Asia reached 7.66 billion, surging 67.8% YoY, hitting a four-year high in growth rate; revenue increased 39.8% YoY to US$4.5 billion. According to Frost & Sullivan data, by parcel volume, J&T’s market share in Southeast Asia further increased to 34.4%, and it has been the top-ranked express delivery operator in the Southeast Asia market for six consecutive years since 2020.

This growth was mainly driven by the continued rapid development of Southeast Asia’s e-commerce market. At the same time, as an independent e-commerce enabler, the Company achieved steady business improvement by integrating order resources across all platforms and actively expanding non-e-commerce platform customers. The Company also empowered Southeast Asia with its China experience, driving a significant enhancement in economies of scale. Cost per parcel decreased to US$0.48. While offering customers more competitive pricing, the Company achieved an increase in adjusted EBIT margin to 11.9%.

China Market Accelerates the Adoption of Outlet Automation; Cost per Parcel Steadily Declines

In 2025, J&T achieved high-quality growth in the China market, with its business volume ranking rising to fifth, and revenue increasing 5% YoY to US$6.71 billion. During the period, the Company handled 22.07 billion parcels, up 11.4% YoY. Through deepening full-link refined operations, the Company fully promoted the popularization and application of automated equipment at outlets, with the number of automated equipment increasing significantly compared to the end of 2024. The Company's cost per parcel decreased YoY to US$0.28, maintaining the profit resilience of the business.

The Company continued to build differentiated competitive barriers, including deepening cooperation with brand customers such as Yili, Luhua, and Wuliangye, vigorously promoting the "Express Delivery to Villages" project, continuously increasing the coverage rate of express delivery to villages, accelerating and strengthening cloud warehouse services, and actively deploying the application of unmanned logistics vehicles, with over 1,000 vehicles currently in operation. Meanwhile, the Company launched its Hong Kong consolidated shipping business in 2025. Leveraging the cargo consolidation, transit, and sorting capabilities in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, it extended its reach to the Hong Kong region and developed a series of terminal facilities such as self-pickup points and self-pickup lockers in Hong Kong.

New Markets Achieve Historic Profitability; Another Milestone in Globalization Strategy J&T’s layout in New Markets (including Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Mexico, Brazil, and Egypt) ushered in a harvest period. In 2025, parcel volume in New Markets increased by 43.6% YoY to 404 million, and revenue rose 51.2% YoY to US$870 million. Adjusted EBIT improved significantly from the same period last year to a profit of US$4 million, successfully turning losses into gains. At the same time, the adjusted EBIT per parcel in New Markets turned positive for the first time in the second half of 2025, reaching US$0.09, proving that the New Markets business has entered a healthy and sustainable development track.

The success of New Markets benefited not only from the Company’s close cooperation with global cross-border e-commerce platforms such as SHEIN, Temu, TikTok, and AliExpress, but also from the active expansion of local partners. In 2025, the Company reached a cooperation with Mercado Libre, the largest e-commerce platform in Latin America, and won the Mercado Libre 2025 Best Carrier Award, with its service capabilities recognized by the platform. The mature operating experience of the China and Southeast Asia markets was systematically exported to New Markets, greatly enhancing operational capabilities, operational efficiency, and profitability.

J&T continued to invest in advancing network construction and operational optimization in global markets, comprehensively enhancing network carrying capacity through self-building and upgrading core hubs. As of the end of 2025, the Company operated 246 sorting centers globally, and its largest global self-built center, located in Guangzhou, became officially operational in the fourth quarter of 2025. To cope with the growth in business volume, the Company added approximately 1,880 self-owned line-haul vehicles on a net basis throughout the year; and added 134 sets of automated sorting equipment, bringing the total to 413 sets.

Charles Hou, Group Vice President of J&T Express, stated: "2025 was a crucial year for J&T to achieve high-quality growth and strategic breakthroughs. Our market share advantage in Southeast Asia continued to expand, we maintained resilience and quality development amid intense competition in the China market, and New Markets also ushered in an inflection point of profitability, fully validating our global, replicable business model. Over 30 billion parcels globally is a new starting point for J&T. Looking ahead, we will continue to forge ahead and meet global customers' demand for high-quality express delivery services with more efficient and intelligent services, creating long-term value for shareholders and partners."

J&T is committed to enhancing service experience and operational efficiency through technological innovation. As of 30 June 2025, the Company had approximately 19,200 outlets, operated 239 sorting centers with 337 sets of automated sorting machines globally.

In the China market, under the policy guidance of “anti-involution,” price competition in the industry is becoming more rational. At the same time, the Company is increasing its investment in technologies such as intelligent sorting and unmanned vehicles.

[Press] J&T Express Reports Q2 2025 Parcel Volume of 7.39 Billion; Southeast Asia Market Achieves Record Quarterly Growth of 65.9%

By J&T Marketing Team on 8 Jul, 2025 9:16:55 AM

Hong Kong, 8 July 2025 - J&T Global Express Limited (“ J&T Express” or “ J&T” or “the Company”, stock code: 01519), a global logistics service provider, announced its key operating metrics for the second quarter and first half of 2025. For the second quarter ended 30 June 2025, the company handled approximately 7.39 billion parcels, a 23.5% year-on-year increase, with an average daily parcel volume of 81.2 million. Meanwhile, in the first half of 2025, the company's total parcel volume reached 13.99 billion parcels, a 27% year-on-year increase, with an average daily parcel volume of 76.9 million. In both the second quarter and the first half of this year, J&T's total parcel volume reached new highs, with parcel volumes in all major markets continuing to achieve double-digit growth.

As the leading express delivery company in Southeast Asia for five consecutive years, J&T Express achieved robust growth in the region during the second quarter of this year. Parcel volume in Southeast Asia reached approximately 1.69 billion, marking a 65.9% year-on-year increase – the fastest single-quarter growth since the company's listing. The average daily parcel volume stood at 18.5 million. For the first half of the year, the company's Southeast Asia parcel volume grew by 57.9% year-on-year to 3.23 billion, with an average daily volume of 17.7 million.

The strong performance in Southeast Asia during the period was primarily driven by J&T’s strengthened strategic partnerships with mainstream e-commerce platforms, local brands, and clients across various industries, fostering mutually beneficial growth. In the second quarter, increased promotional efforts and a wider range of product categories from e-commerce platforms significantly boosted business volume. As an independent enabler for e-commerce, J&T Express successfully capitalised on the overall growth opportunities within the region's e-commerce sector. This was achieved by leveraging J&T’s high-quality, cost-effective services, thereby consistently solidifying its market-leading position. Concurrently, the company's partnerships with local brands across Southeast Asian countries and the proactive expansion into non-platform parcel services have also yielded significant results, becoming another crucial engine driving business growth in Southeast Asia.

To support its rapid business expansion, J&T Express continues to bolster its infrastructure investment across Southeast Asia. By the end of June this year, the company's service network density had further improved, with the number of service points increasing by 700 to 10,500 compared to the end of last year. To ensure sufficient transport capacity, the number of line-haul vehicles increased by 800 to 5,400. This series of strategic investments has significantly enhanced the company's parcel processing capabilities and network capacity, providing a solid guarantee for the efficient collection and delivery of vast parcel volumes. Looking ahead, the company will continue to execute capacity expansion and upgrades to meet the growing demands of its customers.

In the Chinese market, J&T Express maintains a long-term, healthy development approach, proactively optimising its customer structure and dynamically adjusting its operational strategies to navigate market changes. This series of refined management initiatives has driven the steady growth of the company's business scale and effectively enhanced its core competitiveness. For the second quarter, parcel volume reached 5.61 billion, representing a 14.7% year-on-year increase, with an average daily parcel volume of 61.7 million. In the first half of the year, the company's China parcel volume rose by 20% year-on-year to approximately 10.6 billion, with an average daily parcel volume of 58.2 million. During the period, J&T continued to drive network development and operational optimisation, supporting e-commerce platforms and brand clients by providing efficient, high-quality services. For instance, in Chenghai, Guangdong, known as the "Toy Capital," J&T provided robust support for the local toy industry. Amidst the combined peak seasons of Children's Day (June 1st), the "618" shopping festival, and the summer holidays, J&T safeguarded the industry through intelligent upgrades, customised services, and full-chain collaboration. This resulted in a single service outlet in the area handling an average daily parcel volume exceeding 200,000."

Regarding new market development, J&T Express achieved a parcel volume of 89.4 million in the second quarter, representing a 23.7% year-on-year increase, with an average daily parcel volume of 0.98 million. For the first half of the year, parcel volume in these new markets rose by 21.7% year-on-year to approximately 170 million. The company anticipates continued growth in business volume from new markets and will proceed with the pre-emptive deployment of automated equipment, particularly in regions like Latin America.

The company continues to invest in infrastructure development across all its markets, aiming to not only accommodate business growth but also to further enhance express delivery operational efficiency. As of the end of June 2025, the company's total number of automated sorting machines reached 337 sets, an increase of 58 sets compared to the end of 2024. Of these, 270 sets of automated sorting machines are located in China, an increase of 44 sets. Southeast Asia and new markets account for 57 and 10 sets respectively.

Charles Hou, Group Vice President of J&T Express, stated: “J&T Express delivered a strong performance in the second quarter of 2025, with the Southeast Asian market proving particularly encouraging. We've successfully capitalised on the growth opportunities within the region's e-commerce sector and maintained our commitment to continuous investment in local infrastructure. This resulted in a remarkable 65.9% year-on-year growth in Southeast Asia's parcel volume for the second quarter, which not only underscores J&T's strength in market expansion but also further solidifies our position as the leading express delivery provider in the region. Simultaneously, our refined management in the Chinese market has driven stable parcel volume growth. Looking ahead, we remain focused on deepening our presence in each market, continuously enhancing operational efficiency and service quality to meet evolving market demands and provide customers with even more efficient and reliable logistics services.”
