Flash Express, the Philippines’ fastest-growing logistics and courier service company, is celebrating its second-year anniversary this August. The company has achieved remarkable success and made a significant contribution to the country by providing thousands of job opportunities, revolutionizing the e-commerce logistics industry through its advanced systems, supporting Filipino entrepreneurs, bridging the gap between e-commerce platforms and customers, and raising awareness about industry issues.
One of the key highlights of Flash Express’s accomplishments is its role in job creation. As of August 2023, the company employed over 17,000 people in operations and corporate support, with riders, couriers, and warehouse staff making up the majority of the workforce. The company plans to hire an additional 20,000 employees by the end of the year, further boosting employment opportunities in the country.
Another significant aspect of Flash Express’s success is its advanced logistics systems for e-commerce. The company utilizes cutting-edge technologies and facilities to enhance the client experience and streamline operations. These include the Flash Express app and website with a user-friendly interface, the Fast Hand device that captures parcel images and records precise dimensions and weight, the Dimensioning, Weighing & Scanning Machine for efficient packaging, the iData handheld device for transportation and logistics operations, advanced conveyor belt systems for hubs and distribution centers, and a Key Accounts System for easy order placement and tracking.
Flash Express also plays a crucial role in educating Filipino entrepreneurs by offering logistics services and business opportunities through its Flash Home program. By supporting major e-commerce platforms in the country, such as Lazada, Shopee, and TikTok Shop, Flash Express helps bridge the gap between these platforms and customers. The company has launched campaigns to inform Filipino customers about e-commerce trends and best practices, while also serving as the logistics provider for these platforms.
Furthermore, Flash Express takes its corporate social responsibility seriously through its “Alagang Flash” program. The company has extended donations to various communities, including Pasig, Tondo, Manila, Bulacan, Kalinga, Laguna, among others. Flash Express has also initiated an open discussion with government agencies and local units to address industry-related concerns such as crime prevention in the e-commerce logistics sector.
Peng Wansong, General Manager of Flash Express, expressed pride in the company’s development and the opportunities it has brought to the Philippines. He emphasized Flash Express’s commitment to working with employees, customers, business partners, and the entire e-commerce logistics industry to provide sustainable opportunities and enhance the company’s ecosystem through innovation.
After just two years since its launch in the Philippines, Flash Express has experienced significant growth and established itself as one of the leading logistics companies in the country. With nationwide service availability, a strong workforce, and over 400,000 registered users actively utilizing its services, Flash Express continues to make strides in the e-commerce logistics industry.
