Indonesian third-party logistics players say Shopee antitrust fix falls short, urge action

THE rise of e-commerce platforms’ in-house fleets continues to erode shipment volumes for Indonesian third-party logistics (3PL) players, many of whom are now asking the government to do more to protect them.

Nearly all major e-commerce companies in Indonesia have in-house fleets, including Shopee, Lazada, Tokopedia, and BiliBili.

Shopee even faced allegations of monopolistic behaviour in the country, being accused of prioritising its logistics service SPX Express over 3PL players on its platform.
