YH Supply Chain × Nike China | North China Smart Logistics Hub Officially Launched

On 22 May 2026, the Nike North China Logistics Centre, fully operated by YH, officially commenced operations on Jinghai 5th Road in the Beijing Economic and Technological Development Area.

With a total floor area of approximately 110,000㎡, the centre integrates three key warehouse functions—a national distribution centre, a regional service centre and an urban service centre—and features an accompanying sports park. It will serve Nike’s retail partners across the eight provinces of North China, the company’s directly operated stores in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, and e-commerce customers nationwide. Thanks to YH’s meticulous operations and efficient coordination, overall fulfillment times have been reduced by two to three days, enabling same-day delivery to stores in Beijing and Tianjin.

The centre has also become Nike’s second-largest e-commerce warehousing.

As a global logistics supply chain service provider, YH pioneered the integrated supply chain service model. Nike, on the other hand, has always adhered to the concepts of social responsibility, humanistic care, and sports health, and is an outstanding benchmark in the global sports industry. The deep alignment of their value pursuits and development strategies has created a solid foundation for this in-depth cooperation. The successful launch of the North China Logistics Center is another important milestone of the deep collaboration between YH and Nike. This project will comprehensively empower the supply chain efficiency and stability of Nike's North China market with a more efficient, intelligent, and green supply chain service system.

YH’s strategic partnership with Nike has spanned 15 years, during which the two parties have achieved deep operational synergy across key cities including Hong Kong, Kunming and Suzhou. For this North China project, YH is leveraging its core logistics hub in Beijing to provide long-term expansion capacity for the centre, and has taken the lead in deploying new energy delivery vehicles to support Nike’s steady progress towards its long-term goal of 100% renewable energy.

Tennis legend Na Li, Nike Group Vice President and General Manager of the Greater China Region Kaixi Shen, CEO of YH Global Supply Chain Zhang Quan, and Vice President of Operations at Nike China Chang Yuan jointly witnessed the opening of the logistics center.

In terms of intelligent operations, the centre has deployed an Auto Sorter automated sorting system, achieving end-to-end automation across the entire process from goods receipt to sorting. Moving forward, YH will gradually introduce automated high-bay storage systems, robotic arm workstations and intelligent high-speed conveyor networks, continuing to drive the evolution of its warehousing and distribution capabilities towards a more efficient ‘fully automated warehouse’.

Nike’s North China Logistics Centre has been awarded LEED Gold certification

As a testing ground for the ‘next-generation supply chain’, the centre is also at the forefront of the industry in the field of low-carbon operations: it has deployed a distributed photovoltaic system and achieved LEED Gold certification. Over the past year, as a core member, YH has collaborated with Nike China and Tsinghua University to jointly publish two industry standards ‘the Guidelines for the Construction and Operation of Zero-Carbon Smart Logistics Parks’ and ‘the Carbon Management Requirements for Zero-Carbon Smart Logistics Parks’, providing the industry with a replicable and scalable framework for low-carbon logistics. To mark the centre’s inauguration, Nike and Tsinghua University formally signed the ‘Carbon Neutrality Capacity Building Project’, with YH participating as a key implementation partner, deeply involved in talent development and technological innovation under the ‘dual carbon’ goals. In the future, the North China Logistics Centre will serve as the first pilot site for the implementation of these two group standards, as well as a vital practical training base for professionals in low-carbon supply chains.

Looking ahead, YH will continue to deepen its breakthroughs in smart operations, green logistics and digital innovation, fully leveraging its leading advantages in smart logistics and green operations to build a more agile, robust and sustainable supply chain system, thereby supporting the high-quality and efficient long-term development of global supply chains.
