China'S First Annual Volume Of Express Delivery Billion

The "10 billion era" will become a historic turning point in the Chinese express industry. On the one hand, the domestic express delivery market has basically taken shape. The quantitative change is pushing forward the qualitative pformation of China's express industry, that is, from "price war" to "service war". On the other hand, with the listing of Alibaba in the NYSE and accelerating the development of cross-border electricity providers, the Chinese express industry is facing a new challenge -- cross border logistics.

It is also said that this is one of the main reasons for the decision of the State Council in September 24th to convene the executive meeting to "further open the domestic express market and promote the fair and orderly competition of domestic and foreign capital".

9 billion 390 million completed in the first three quarters

The State Post Office announced that the annual volume of Chinese express business increased from 1 billion in 2006 to 9 billion 190 million in 2013, with an average annual growth rate of 37.3%.

Jumped to the second place in the world.

Behind the strong growth, the size of the online shopping market in China increased from about 30000000000 yuan in 2006 to 1 trillion and 850 billion yuan in 2013.

Data obtained from the state post office yesterday showed that in the first three quarters of 2014, the volume of business of the national express delivery service enterprises totaled 9 billion 390 million, an increase of 52% over the same period last year.

In September, the volume of express delivery business exceeded 1 billion 200 million for the first time in a single month, and the average daily delivery volume exceeded 40 million units. The total revenue of express business increased by more than 40% over the same period last year, and business income in the single month has hit a new high.

Express business income accounted for the first time over 60% of the total business income, reaching 61.5%, an increase of 7.7 percentage points over the same period last year.

From the domestic market, the strong growth of business volume mainly comes from the eastern region.

In the first three quarters, the volume of express business in the eastern region increased by more than the national average, while the Yangtze Delta, the Pearl River Delta and the Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei three key areas, the volume of express business grew faster than the national level. The total volume of the express business was 6 billion 800 million, accounting for 72.4% of the national express delivery volume.

Among them, since August, Guangzhou has accumulated more business than Shanghai and Beijing. In the first 9 months, it continued to rank first in 940 million places, becoming the first city in the country to have over 100 million business volume per month.

Last year, "double eleven", China's express business volume exceeded 300 million, but the situation of "burst warehouse" has been significantly reduced compared to the previous years, indicating that the construction of domestic express network has matured.

When the domestic express industry is striding forward, cross border logistics is considered as a bottleneck and new challenge for China's express delivery industry in the "10 billion era".

According to the data released by the state post office yesterday, the volume of international and Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan accounts for only 2.4% of the total volume of the express business in the first three quarters. On the one hand, the volume of mainland express business is too large. On the other hand, the international business market is currently dominated by the four international express giants (DHL, FedEx, UPS and TNT).

The executive meeting of the State Council, which was held in September 24th this year, decided to "further open the domestic express delivery market and promote the fair and orderly competition of domestic and foreign capital", which is considered a milestone in the development of the express delivery industry.

A perennial study of international aviation

The industry told reporters that this "open" behind the deep meaning, because the domestic private express distribution overseas is still conservative and slow, and the largest domestic e-commerce enterprise Alibaba has been listed in the United States this year, cross-border electricity providers need cross-border logistics matching.

The four major international express giants temporarily make up for the short board of cross-border logistics in China. Meanwhile, through localization and competition in China, they will bring more market development experience to Chinese express companies.

At the same time, for possible achievements.

In the next 100 billion era, one of the blue ocean's cross border logistics, Chinese express companies have smelled business opportunities and have begun to actively layout.

In October 26th, SF EXPRESS announced that it had formally signed a 767-300ER order with Boeing, and announced that it would buy more than 30 second-hand 757 and 767 passenger aircraft from the Boeing company on the scale of the existing 36 fleet.

Boeing 767 is now most suitable for intercontinental voyage in the mid size freight market.

The news of the acquisition of 30 second hand passenger planes for passenger to goods has not yet been confirmed by SF, but this is undoubtedly the prelude to SF's further increase in cross border logistics.

However, compared with the international express giants, HSF, which is the largest express fleet in China, is still in its infancy.

Publicly available data show that the US FedEx Corp (FedEx) fleet has more than 600 fleet, and pshipment centers are the main hub of the world. This is also the core competitiveness of the global express giants in cross-border logistics.

According to reporters, in order to support Alibaba's first "double eleven" globalization strategy after its listing in the United States, the rookie network has completed the layout of logistics resources in more than 200 countries and regions to achieve global parcel access, but there are few Chinese cooperation express companies.

This also proves once again that in the future of cross-border logistics this big cake, China Link Express Inc need to accelerate.
