Looking for the best last mile delivery partner in the Philippines? With the growing expansion of e-commerce market in the Philippines, there’s a huge need for businesses to reduce last mile delivery costs and reach new markets.
Whether you’re a small business or a medium enterprise or a home-based business, you need to fine-tune your last mile delivery as it is the most expensive and time-consuming step in the supply chain. For this reason, you need an effective partner with an efficient system to deliver your orders, despite any setbacks.
Understanding last mile delivery in the Philippines
The rapid growth of e-commerce in the Philippines doesn’t come as a surprise. Due to changing consumer habits, technology shifted to favour online shopping which is more convenient, faster, and often cheaper. More and more people are shopping on Shopee, Lazada, and Zalora, and this trend has gone up in the last two years when the country—and the whole world—was in near-total lockdown.
The Filipino e-commerce market grew from US$ 3 billion in 2019 to US$ 4 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow to US$ 12 billion by 2025. That means more orders, more deliveries, and an increase in demand for last mile delivery services.
Last mile delivery is the last step in fulfilling a customer order. It is the process of delivering a product from a distribution center to the customer’s door. The last mile is often the most expensive and logistically challenging part of the delivery process. In the Philippines, last mile delivery costs an average of $10 per package and the businesses charge $8 or more to cover these costs.
The Philippines last mile delivery is expensive due to many factors such as
- Drivers spend more time on the road delivering too many packages to multiple locations
- Making too many stops to drop off packages
- Failed deliveries due to incorrect address, bad weather, no time windows, etc.
- Cost of fuel and maintenance for vehicles
Returns, exchanges, and refunds
While the high cost of last mile delivery is a hindrance for many businesses, especially small businesses, many are turning to 3PL companies to outsource their delivery needs. To stay ahead of the competition and to win customers’ love, e-commerce companies have to offer competitive pricing, and last mile carriers can help you do that.
A study by ASEAN UP showed that as of 2021, there are already 50 million online shoppers in the Philippines, up from just 41.9 million in 2019. This is indicative of the strong demand for e-commerce in the Philippines, which means sellers must be ready to find better ways to make their products reach their customers. A big part of its success is the seller’s ability to provide an excellent delivery experience, and that includes having a good last mile delivery service.
