XPENG and Vinturas partner to scale European operations

XPENG, an electric vehicle manufacturer, has selected Vinturas as its supply chain and logistics technology partner as it scales its operations across Europe.

Vinturas is a global enterprise software company that offers an interoperable network solution, enabled by private blockchain technology.

Vinturas will help XPENG integrate the elements of its car distribution network by enabling interoperability among all partners in XPENG’s value chain and providing one source of shared supply-chain information.

The Vinturas interoperable network solution was designed to allow XPENG to orchestrate cross-border logistics flows, anticipate and mitigate disruptions, and coordinate on-time delivery timelines across multiple markets.

Digitising its European logistics for expansion across the continent, the solution aims to enable XPENG to have a faster order-to-delivery cycle times, improved port and compound throughput, together with a more reliable delivery experience.

Sándor Gacsó, head of logistics, Europe at XPENG, said: “XPENG is on a mission to become the world’s leading AI-driven mobility technology company, and as we accelerate our expansion across Europe, we need partners who can match our ambition.

“Some of our biggest challenges have been securing full visibility of our finished vehicles as they move through Europe and efficiently onboarding the many logistics partners involved.

“Vinturas can provide the secure digital backbone that enables us to meet these needs and scale quickly and efficiently as demand grows.”
