CJ Logistics and SSG.com Expand Overnight Delivery to All Metropolitan Cities Nationwide

Nationwide Metropolitan Overnight Delivery Network Established in Just Five Months of Collaboration

CJ Logistics and SSG.com are expanding their overnight delivery coverage to all metropolitan cities nationwide, just five months after initiating their logistics collaboration.

On April 23, the two companies announced that the 'SSG Overnight Delivery' service area would be expanded to include Ulsan Metropolitan City. In addition, starting on April 25, overnight delivery will be sequentially introduced in Jeonju, Gunsan, and Iksan in Jeonbuk Special Self-Governing Province.

Customers in these regions can receive grocery items such as food and daily necessities by 7 a.m. the next day if they place their orders by 10 p.m. For fresh food items, a 'Freshness Guarantee System' is applied, allowing customers to easily receive a refund if the products are deemed not fresh.

With this expansion, the two companies will now operate overnight delivery services throughout Seoul and all six metropolitan cities nationwide. After entering into a strategic partnership between CJ and Shinsegae Group in June last year, the companies began logistics cooperation, expanding to southern Gyeonggi Province and the Chungcheong region in December, and then adding Busan, Daegu, and Gwangju Metropolitan City to the overnight delivery coverage in the first quarter of this year.

CJ Logistics possesses the largest logistics infrastructure and operational expertise in Korea. As of the end of 2023, CJ Logistics had established logistics hubs totaling 11.3 million square meters (equivalent to 1,600 soccer fields), including the Gonjiam Mega Hub, which is the largest in Asia, as well as parcel and third-party logistics (3PL) facilities.

Based on their delivery capabilities and product strength, the two companies are accelerating efforts to enhance non-food delivery competitiveness by operating 'Star Delivery,' a guaranteed arrival service focused on lifestyle categories such as cosmetics, pet supplies, and home goods. The same-day delivery area for Traders has also been expanded to the Seoul metropolitan area and the Chungcheong region.

Yoon Jaeseung, Head of the O-NE Division at CJ Logistics, stated, "With the largest logistics infrastructure and operational capabilities in Korea, we are fully prepared to meet the growing demand for overnight delivery from our client companies. We will continue to advance our convenient and fast delivery services to enhance sales convenience for e-commerce sellers and provide the best shopping experience for consumers."
