HONG KONG, Oct. 30, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- J&T Global Express Limited ('J&T Express' or 'J&T' or 'the company'), a global logistics service provider, officially listed on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange under the stock code "1519". The Public Offer Price was HK$ 12.00 per Offer Share, with net proceeds from the Global Offering amounting to HK$ 3.528 billion (Over-Allotment Option not yet exercised). This listing in Hong Kong marks a significant step forward in J&T Express's journey towards becoming a global leader in logistics.
J&T Express plans to use the funds raised from the IPO to expand its logistics network, improve existing infrastructure, and strengthen the company's sorting and warehouse capabilities in Southeast Asia and other markets.

Founded in Indonesia in 2015, J&T Express expanded rapidly into six other Southeast Asian countries before entering the Chinese market in 2020. According to Frost & Sullivan, J&T Express was the number one express delivery operator in Southeast Asia by parcel volume in 2022, and among the leading operators in China by market share. Leveraging the strong growth of its business in China and Southeast Asia, the company further expanded its reach into five countries in Latin America, Middle East and North Africa in 2022. At present, J&T's express delivery operations span 13 countries.
At the listing ceremony, frontline staff from J&T Express's 13 markets - including couriers, dispatch operators and call centre representatives - jointly witnessed a gong striking moment and company's listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
