CJ Logistics Expands Mutual Growth Logistics with Traditional Market Delivery to Osan Osaek Market
Delivery Reception Center Opens at Osaek Market After Daejeon Taepyeong Market
Major Regional Market With Both Permanent and Five-Day Fairs
Nationwide Delivery Service Enhances Shopping Convenience for Visitors
Easy Parcel Registration With QR Codes and Voice Input Feature for Delivery Information
CJ Logistics is expanding its delivery services linked to traditional markets, taking the lead in fostering mutual growth for the logistics industry.
On August 27, CJ Logistics announced that it has established a delivery reception center at Osan Osaek Market in Gyeonggi Province. Through this center, the company will operate a service enabling customers to have goods purchased at the market delivered to their preferred location. After first developing the service model at Daejeon Taepyeong Market, the company has extended its service area to the Seoul metropolitan region in just over two months.
The opening ceremony for the "Osan Osaek Market Delivery Reception Center" was held on August 26 at the market's customer support center. The event was attended by Yongho Cho, Mayor of Osan; Chunghwan Lee, President of the National Merchants Association; Joohyun Kim, President of the Osan Osaek Market Merchants Association; Jaeseung Yoon, Head of O-NE Division at CJ Logistics; and other key officials.
This service model was designed to suit the unique characteristics of Osaek Market. Osaek Market is a major traditional market in Osan, attracting not only local residents but also various visitors, as it regularly holds both a permanent market and a five-day market. Even customers making multiple purchases no longer need to carry heavy bags themselves, as they can have goods sent to their desired address. This is expected to greatly enhance the shopping experience at traditional markets.
The service is also easy to use. When a customer makes a purchase, the merchant scans a QR code and enters the delivery information to register the parcel. In particular, a new feature has been introduced that allows delivery information, such as the recipient's address, to be entered using voice input, making the process even more convenient. Once parcels are registered, an on-site delivery manager collects goods from each shop and brings them to the reception center, after which a CJ Logistics courier collects and delivers them to destinations nationwide.
The delivery reception center not only serves customers but also reduces the logistics burden for market merchants. Merchants can easily register parcels at their shops without the need to visit a separate parcel service outlet or handle shipping procedures individually, allowing them to focus more on sales and customer service. Visitors to the market also no longer have to carry purchased goods themselves; instead, they can ship them nationwide, lessening the inconvenience associated with large purchase amounts or diverse products.
