Aventura Group AB (Aventura), the China focused market partner and venture builder, is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with Elanders Group (Elanders), a leading global supplier of supply chain management solutions.
Elanders, a public company listed on NASDAQ OMX, delivers a range of digital printing, print and packaging, supply chain and logistics services to a global customer base. The group has close to 7,000 employees in some 20 countries on four continents and annual net sales of over EUR 1.1 billion.
Elanders handles China logistics and fulfillment for customers in the automotive, electronics, fashion, industrial, and health care & life science industries across a network of more than 14 warehouses.
The partnership combines the capabilities of Elanders in global cross-border logistic, warehousing and fulfillment with the expertise of Aventura in building and operating e-commerce shops on Chinese online marketplaces.
According to a Deloitte, cross-border e-commerce generated in China RMB 78.5 billion (USD 11.9 billion) in gross merchandise value in 2018. Yet, this only represented around 2.2% of total online retail sales that same year, suggesting plenty of room for growth.
“Reliable, scalable and integrated logistics solutions is a critical component of success in China’s cross-border e-commerce market. Elanders is a recognized leader in this space. Coupled with our digital marketing and online sales experience in China, this represents a powerful proposition to international brands seeking a cost-efficient channel for selling into the Chinese market,” said Gustav Astrom, CEO of Aventura.
“As a company, we are very focused on what we do best: delivering bespoke, innovative logistic and supply chain solutions to brands of all sizes. By partnering with Aventura, we are able to build on our core offering and enable end-to-end e-commerce solutions. This is particularly valuable in the present market environment, where China is on the road to recovery while other markets are still reeling from the impact of Covid-19,” added Kevin Rogers, President of Sales & Marketing of Elanders Group.
