On Dec. 22, a JD.com warehouse located in the Paris region of France was broken into and robbed. Local police have launched an investigation into the incident. JD.com stated that the warehouse has now resumed normal operations and clarified that the "significant loss figures" reported by some sources differ substantially from the actual situation.
Earlier reports, citing foreign media, claimed that the JD.com warehouse in Seine-Saint-Denis, France, was burglarized, with over 50,000 3C digital devices—including mobile phones, computers, and tablets—stolen. The estimated value of the stolen goods was approximately €37 million, equivalent to around RMB 306 million.
According to the reports, a manager at the warehouse discovered that intruders had entered through a forced entrance, and about 30 pallets of goods were missing. Preliminary information from the Brigade de Répression du Banditisme (BRB), the unit investigating the case, indicates that the theft occurred between the night of Dec. 21 and the early hours of Dec. 22. The thieves disabled the warehouse's surveillance cameras, and the alarm system was not functioning at the time. Police sources stated that over 50,000 items were stolen, primarily mobile phones, computers, and tablets, along with some headphones.
JD.com emphasized that in recent years, the company has accelerated its "Global Supply Chain Network Initiative," establishing over 130 overseas warehouses of various types across 23 countries and regions, all operating in compliance with local laws and regulations. The company added, "We will continue to build a robust supply chain to provide high-quality logistics services for businesses and users worldwide."
