Integrated logistics provider Teleport aims to deliver 2m parcels daily by 2025 to match global express players.
The Malaysia-based company is ramping up its next-day airfreight delivery services as more cross-border e-commerce volumes flow into southeast Asia.
Pete Chareonwongsak, chief executive of Teleport, said: “The market is ready. We are ready. We want to change the game of how cross border logistics is delivered in Southeast Asia. Delivering fast, affordable and reliable service is hard but we believe our approach can make this a reality for all.
“Controlling the right hybrid belly network, enabled by the right use of technology, and the right operating model provides our customers and partners a next-day service in Southeast Asia that, for the first time, everyone can afford.”
Teleport held a media briefing in Kuala Lumpur on May 13 to share the company’s growth strategy over the next five years.
As part of this growth strategy, the company aims to continue to strengthen its network infrastructure with extensive first-to-last-mile next-day delivery infrastructure, as well as working with more air partners to add more capacity on key high volume lanes. This is on top of its existing multi-hub hybrid mid-mile network of freighters and passenger belly capacity belonging to more than 30 partner airlines combined in southeast Asia.
Teleport is also working on safeguarding the reliability of a next-day, affordable delivery service by ramping up technology to enable efficient first to last mile operations, full visibility and the incorporation of intelligence to ensure functionality, automation capability and flexibility in planning, prediction and service recovery.
The company is further focusing on a sustainable operating model. Teleport said its asset-light, pay-per-use model enables it to operate with a lower cost structure – to ensure more growth drives continued profitability.
Customers benefit by way of affordable pricing and growing network access, added the company. When third party airlines partner with Teleport, “they benefit from incremental revenue gained through new and growing volume channelled through their belly capacity.
“This is our next stage of growth. Affordable, next-day delivery for all in Southeast Asia is the final mission from the day one vision. Our next 5 years will deliver this, and help all businesses with simpler and better service, but also our airline partners will never have to fly empty. We succeed when we ensure everyone wins with Teleport. Market growth is unlimited when we do.” said Chareonwongsak.
Teleport noted that key e-commerce lanes between China and the top five Southeast Asia countries is expected to grow to $3.8bn in freight value in 2025. Cross border e-commerce volume by air is forecasted to grow 20%-25% through to 2027, reflecting continued market growth in the region.
Chareonwongsak previously said Teleport “has a plan” to operate 10 A321 passenger-to-freighter (P2F) aircraft by the end of this year.
