The changes in environment have increased the pressure to logistics service innovation. In order to analyze how to improve the quality of logistics service through service innovation, the paper developes a conceptual model consists of combination of technology innovation, concept innovation and solution innovation, and takes Cainiao as a case to verify the model. We propose that logistics firms should set up new service idea oriented customer demand; pay close attention to advanced technology in different fields; and provide supply chain solutions for customers which integrating multiple logistics functions.
