On the eve of Christmas in 2025, a warehouse belonging to the Chinese e-commerce company JD.com in the Seine-Saint-Denis department of France was robbed, with an estimated loss of about 37 million euros, equivalent to approximately 306 million yuan.
According to reports from French media, sources from the French police disclosed the above information on December 22.
The theft was discovered on the morning of the 22nd in Dugny, 17 kilometers north of Paris: a site manager found that someone had broken in, and over thirty warehouse shelves were stolen in an unknown manner.
The target of this theft was JD.com (now renamed as JD.com), a Chinese e-commerce company. According to the preliminary investigation results of the Anti-Gang Brigade (BRB), the thieves committed the crime between the night of the 21st and the early hours of the 22nd, deliberately damaging the warehouse’s surveillance cameras, causing the alarm system to malfunction.
According to the same police source, they believe that over 50,000 items were stolen, the majority of which were mobile phones, computers, tablets, and headphones.
JD.com operates its own overseas warehouses in France, located in areas such as Dugny near Paris, primarily for handling cross-border fashion and electronic products, providing logistical support for European brands entering the Chinese market, and serving end-to-end supply chains within China, France, and the EU.
