“We are pleased to have made inroads into China’s logistics industry,” said Patrick Lim, Chairman and CEO of Secured Digital. “The potential for China’s logistic industry is huge as logistics costs in China account for 20 – 25% of total operating costs whereas they make up less than 10% of operational expenses in developed economies.
