July 3 News, Dangdang in Tianjin this morning announced the opening of the "Galaxy No. 1th" Warehouse, in the conference site, Dangdang and the four-pass Logistics Express Company signed a strategic cooperation agreement. Dangdang vice President Zhiyu said Dangdang will not build logistics, since the construction of logistics is the electric business channel sank to the three or four-line city nightmare.

Unlike Jingdong's own logistics, Dangdang is currently using the "warehouse self-built + inter-city cooperation with the city" mode: When the construction of Warehousing center, but the distribution of this link to Yuantong, Shun Fung, Chengtong and other Third-party Express Company, third party Express from when the warehouse delivery.

Why should there be two reasons for not building logistics? Dangdang:

1. Save Cost
