WEBDESK: Alibaba, the global e-commerce giant from China, has announced, on Friday, a major initiative to support Pakistani exporters. The company has launched a full suite of online logistics services aimed at helping businesses in Pakistan improve their international trade process.

This new move by the e-commerce giant is focused on assisting small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in overcoming common problems in global trade.

The company has also partnered with leading international express delivery services to make this possible. Through its international express delivery partners, Alibaba.com will ensure that goods are transported safely and on schedule while also providing detailed order tracking tools and customs advisory services.
The statement by the company has added that amid the explosive growth of cross-border e-commerce, SMEs in Pakistan are presented with new opportunities to participate in global trade.
