Abstract
Previous research on logistics shows that third-party logistics is of great significance to the development of e-commerce. The purpose of this study is to compare third-party logistics and self-run logistics from different perspectives, including delivery speed, capital cost, customer satisfaction, etc. By collecting the data of China post and the published research papers, the advantages of third-party logistics and self logistics can be compared, then able to summarize the development trend of e-commerce logistics, by strengthening the development of self logistics, combining with the third-party logistics to fill the gap, dividing different logistics charging standards, and improving the logistics supply chain to promote its development.
Highlights
Since 2010, online shopping has become more and more popular in the world, and e-commerce has developed rapidly
According to the 2018 China Express development index report released by China Post, China Express development index (CEDI) reached 814.5, up 23.6% year on year; the volume of express delivery reached 50.1 billion, up 26.6% year on year, higher than the total volume of express delivery in the United States, Japan, and Europe.[1]
The other outcome reveals that the third-part logistics best fits rural and not well-developed areas, and self-logistics is made for developed areas like first-tier cities
