About Kali Interconnection Technology

Established in February 2017, Kali Interconnection Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. operates as a technology-driven logistics company with its headquarters in Shanghai and a network spanning across China. The company was jointly founded by the leaders of nine regional logistics enterprises, referred to as G9, in what has been described as a "second venture in the internet age for logistics veterans." This collaboration aimed to build a national logistics backbone by leveraging their extensive experience, customer bases, and transportation resources. The legal representative and Executive Director is Meng Bihui.

Kali Interconnection Technology focuses on the full truckload (FTL) segment of the road freight market. Its business model revolves around integrating the resources of small and medium-sized logistics providers through a proprietary technology platform, thereby creating a standardized and transparent national transportation network. The company provides one-stop, end-to-end FTL logistics solutions for a diverse client base, which includes manufacturing companies, express delivery firms, cold chain logistics, warehouse-to-warehouse transfers, and large e-commerce businesses. Prominent clients include industry leaders like SF Express and J&T Express. Revenue is generated by providing these transportation services, as well as offering value-added financial services and centralized procurement for the truck aftermarket.

The core of the company's offering is the "Huo Tian Xia" intelligent logistics service platform. This system integrates various management modules, including a Transportation Management System (TMS), fleet management, order processing, and financial systems, to digitalize the entire logistics process from order placement to final delivery. This platform provides clients with a networked, scalable, standardized, and visible transport system, which enhances efficiency and lowers costs. In addition to its core transport services, Kali offers complementary services such as financing, insurance, and a centralized procurement platform for truck parts and supplies like tires, fuel, and lubricants, aiming to reduce operational costs for its partners. The company reported having over 35,000 controllable vehicles and more than 2,500 FTL routes. In December 2019, the firm announced the completion of a Series A financing round of over 100 million RMB from investors including Zimi Investment, Fengwang Investment, and Ocean Capital.
