BÌNH DƯƠNG — E-commerce company Lazada Logistics Vietnam on Thursday officially inaugurated a commodity sorting centre called Lazada Logistics Park at Sóng Thần 1 Industrial Zone in the southern province of Bình Dương.

Covering an area of 20,000 sq.m, the Lazada Logistics Park, whose capacity is 1 million parcels per day, is the biggest and most modern logistic centre in the province.

According to Lazada, its new sorting centre is equipped with modern technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning and 99 per cent of the sorting lines are automated.

The other modern technologies used at the centre include a telescopic conveyor system, a singulator, dim weight scanners, a wheel sort system with o-belt modular structures, a cross-belt sorting system, small parcel cross-belt sorting, barcode reader software, auto-outbound function and mobile telescopic.
