This new service allows non-Wish merchants to leverage Wish’s global network of Logistics Service Providers for small parcel delivery from China to key destinations including the UK, France, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, the Netherlands, Japan, and the United States.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 15, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ContextLogic Inc.

WishPost Smart Parcel’s end-to-end small parcel delivery service leverages Wish’s global network of Logistics Service Providers (LSP) which spans first mile, international line haul, customs brokerage and last mile delivery. Designed to meet the needs of non-Wish merchants, the innovative service underpins Wish's commitment to delivering operational excellence.
“As a global online marketplace that works with an extensive network of sellers worldwide, we have made it our mission to build a world-class logistics network that can stand up to scrutiny,” said Bill Zhang, VP of Global Logistics, Wish. “The launch of WishPost Smart Parcel marks a significant milestone in our journey as we deepen our investment in our logistics capabilities, in order to broaden the impact of our top-tier service that combines unbeatable value with speed.”
In its initial phase, WishPost Smart Parcel is set to support shipments from China to key destinations including the UK, France, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, the Netherlands, Japan, and the United States.
US based sellers often complain about unfair competition from overseas merchants or dropshippers having an advantage with cheap shipping from China versus domestic shipping rates.
