JD.com Makes History by Launching First Government Approved Drone Flight

JD.com has made history by being the first retailer in Southeast Asia to launch a drone flight for its deliveries. This launch is a breakthrough and a significant milestone for this retailer. The drone launch now opens doors for more e-commerce trading not just in Indonesia but Southeast Asia as well. The flight path for the drone is subject to regulatory approvals which are underway. The announcement was made at the World Economic Forum meeting. The launch was witnessed by representatives of the Air Navigation, Ministry of Transportation and Civil Aviation.

The Test Flight

The drone’ test flight was done on January 8th in 2019. This was done in West Java. The drone departed from Jagabita Village and then flew to the MIS Nurul Elementary School in ParungPanjang. The drone was carrying books and backpacks which were delivered to the elementary school. This was part of the donations that Jingdong makes to schools. Jingdong as a company has been involved in various philanthropic activities to empower and give back the community where they operate. Notably, the company has made use of technology and nationwide networks to provide timely support to areas that are hit by earthquakes and other natural disasters.

JD.com Portfolio and Partnerships

Jingdong in collaboration with JD.ID, one of its partners were among the first companies to introduce top quality e-commerce solution to Indonesia. JD.ID launched its operations back in 2016. Today, the company serves over 20 million customers. Their services are well spread out across the nation. In total, their network has ten warehouses strategically located across the islands. This helps them to serve 6,500 counties across 483 cities. The launch of the drone will enable Jingdong to make timely deliveries across many islands. It is also a major plus for their logistics-related services. The company can now focus on expanding its reach across other cities. This is a welcome move by the citizens of Indonesia, who can now enjoy more reliable and prompt deliveries. The launch of the drone is in line with Jingdong’s goal of delivering 85 percent of their orders on the same day. The company also intends to do more than just making deliveries. The drone will also be used in support of humanitarian efforts such as providing food and other needs to disaster-prone areas.

Over the years, Jingdong has also established other strategic partnerships and alliances. Key among these is the WEF Center for the Fourth Industrial Revolution. The partnership has helped JD.com to develop policy frameworks and make milestones in the advancement of their science and technology initiatives. Jingdong and WEF have worked closely to ensure the launch and the success of drone technology.

JD.com Historical Moment and Future Projections

Jon Liao, JD.com’s Chief Strategy Officer, expressed his sentiments during the launch of the drone. He said that it was a great honor for them to contribute to the making of history. He expressed that the future looks bright and that the drone deliveries are bound to have a profound impact on the retail sector in Indonesia. Moving forward, the company will be working closely with the Indonesian government and other partners such as WEF. This is in an effort to offer more convenience to the citizens. The successful launch of the drone puts Indonesia among the top countries in Southeast Asia that have been able to leverage the drone technology to improve the delivery of products, vital medical supplies and humanitarian goods in remote areas. The technology is set to be transformative, and it is a major milestone in the retail and humanitarian sectors.

Herbalife Nutrition Changing The Lifestyle Of An Entire Town In Ohio

Herbalife has been around for 39 years, being established by Mark Hughes in February of 1980. Hughes started selling weight management products by himself, the first product being a protein shake which was designed to help people manage their weight. By the year 1985, the company was labeled by the Inc. publication as the fastest-growing private company in the country, after its sales increased from $386,000 to $423 million in the span of 5 years. By 1996, the company was reaching 32 countries and had international sales account for more than half of the company’s total sales.

Herbalife has a simple goal of changing nutrition into something that is more accessible, as well as an achievable way of living. The company currently reaches more than 90 different countries through its distributors and has 8,000 employees worldwide. The company’s distributors also offer one-on-one support, as well as personalized help designed to cater to various lifestyles – from people who want to lose weight to athletes.

Besides focusing on selling nutritional supplements, Herbalife distributors also focus on giving back to the community. Coshocton, a small town in northeast Ohio has been going through a recent transformation after the company’s distributor and local resident Rochelle Byers and her husband Dave worked with the community in order to restore a healthy lifestyle to the small town.

A study conducted by the Fair Labor Association shows that more than half of factory workers in Coshocton work 60 hours every week or more. Over time, factory labor can take a toll on one’s body as it can be physically taxing. The small community has been tied to working in factories for decades and tied with the fact that there was a consistent lack of good nutrition, Coshocton was in need of a change.

Dave and Rochelle Byers managed to find a solution to the issues that were plaguing the small town, by simply offering free samples of Herbalife Nutrition products and providing fitness classes at no charge. According to Rochelle Byers, the goal was to build a relationship with the customers by helping them find the thing that would make them happy and trying to help them break through the barrier that is holding them back. Dave also talked about the initiative, noting that the two love their job due to the fact that they get the opportunity to help people change their life.

The two saw the problem of Coshocton as an opportunity to make a difference. The community club entitled Healthy’s opened by Dave focuses on a healthier lifestyle through a holistic approach. The club offers protein shakes, aloe, and teas in order to give the residents of Coshocton what they need for a nutritious snack or meal. Dave also pointed out that the nutrition products and the community health activities that they offer make it impossible for people to have an excuse not to join and live a healthier lifestyle.

Besides the nutritious products and the physical activity, the community club shows attention to detail by designing personalized programs for each individual customer and providing support. The Byers couple is aware of the fact that the residents of Coshocton are at different stages when it comes to their journey. What is different about the products offered by the community club is that unlike regular nutrition plans which are specific to gaining muscle or losing weight, the activities and programs offered by Healthy’s aim to encourage the customers to achieve their personal goals. What this means is that people of any age are invited to participate and enjoy the support they need in order to achieve their goals.

Find a finely knitted thin jersey in your closet. It will remain hidden under the upper layers, thus; there is no need to stick with pink only. Now get your favorite pink top and wear it over the jersey. You can search online for the latest pink tops on love theme. The upper-most layer could be an embroidered denim jacket or blazer matching your top. Make sure that it is lighter in colour. For the bottom, a dusty rose pleated skirt is a perfect choice that you can buy in both long and short styles. Both baby pink shoes and sandals will look perfect with the outfit. And in addition for extra comfort, you can also try sheer stockings in a nude colour.

It’s time to utilize them for your prom parties purpose. Rather than copying the entire style, it’s better to customize it according to your convenience. For this idea, find a celebrity whose figure shares similarities with you. Explore her Instagram account and online fashion magazines. You will find too many dressing styles especially meant for the occasion of prom parties in various locations. For instance, the strapless long prom dresses with partial open back in sapphire or shimmering black would be perfect for a romantic evening. Similarly, you can try an A-Line 2 piece chiffon dress for a casual date in the restaurant.
