BingEx Ltd.

General Information
Business:

(Incorporated in the Cayman Islands) 

BingEx Limited is not a Chinese operating company, but a Cayman Islands holding company with no operations of its own. We conduct our operations primarily through (i) our PRC subsidiaries and (ii) Beijing Tongcheng Biying Technology Co., Ltd., or the VIE, in China with which we have maintained contractual arrangements.

Our mission is to make people’s lives better through our services.

We are the pioneer in providing on-demand dedicated courier services for individual and business customers with superior time certainty, delivery safety and service quality. We brand our services as “FlashEx,” or “闪送” (pronounced as “Shan Song”) in Chinese, which means delivery in a flash. FlashEx has become synonymous with on-demand dedicated courier services in China, according to iResearch.

We are the largest independent on-demand dedicated courier service provider in China as measured by revenue in 2023, according to iResearch. Since the inception of our commercial operation in 2014, our business has flourished with individual and business customers embracing the on-demand dedicated courier industry. As of June 30, 2024, we had approximately 2.7 million registered riders, and had expanded our services coverage to 295 cities in China. In 2023, our market share of the independent on-demand dedicated courier service in China was approximately 33.9%, according to iResearch.

With the rapid development of new retail in China and the shift of consumer behavior in the mobile internet era, an increasing number of individuals and business customers are demanding time-sensitive delivery services and are willing to pay a premium price for time certainty and service quality. Moreover, the white-collar working class in urban areas in China generally have fast-paced work and daily lives, which increase their demand for timely and reliable delivery services that address their time constraints. As a result, on-demand delivery has become one of the fastest growing industries in China. The total market size of the on-demand delivery market in China grew from RMB164.1 billion to RMB338.5 billion from 2019 to 2023, at a CAGR of 19.8%, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 19.1% to RMB809.6 billion by 2028, according to iResearch.

Our journey began when our co-founders identified market opportunities for huge unmet demand of on-demand delivery service in China. In particular, customers’ demand for the delivery of high-value items such as business or personal documents, valuable or fragile merchandises, and items that need to be delivered with greater time precision, is not well served by traditional delivery service providers with an order-merge model that inherently has higher risks of delay, loss, and damage. These are the pain points that we have identified and strived to address through our innovative dedicated courier model in China.

Note: Net income and revenue are in U.S. dollars (converted from China’s currency) for the year that ended Dec. 31, 2023.
