J&T Global Express Expands Automated Sorting Systems and Unmanned Delivery Fleet Growth
- Published
J&T Global Express has enhanced its automated sortation capabilities by adding 22 new sorting machines, bringing the total to 435 across its express network. This expansion coincides with a significant increase in unmanned delivery vehicles, which rose by 87% to over 1,900 units by June 30, 2026.
This growth is crucial as J&T handled 17.50 billion parcels in the first half of 2026, marking a 25.1% year-on-year increase. The new sorting systems were strategically placed across Southeast Asia, China, and other markets, with a focus on improving efficiency and reducing costs for both J&T and its network partners, which numbered approximately 1,300 in Southeast Asia.
Looking ahead, J&T plans to continue investing in outlet automation as capacity expands. The company is also encouraging its network partners to adopt unmanned delivery vehicles, supported by favorable policies and cooperation plans, particularly in key cities across China. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
