China Freight And Logistics Market Trends
This section covers the major market trends shaping the China Freight And Logistics Market according to our research experts:
Infrastructure development leading to growth of the logistics market
- China is experiencing insatiable demand for transportation and logistics services—so much so that dedicated service providers are struggling to keep up. This is causing some of China's biggest retailers to strike out on their own with in-house logistics. It is certainly not because of a lack of infrastructure that China's logistics industry is struggling to meet its potential. The country is ranked first in the world in terms of ton-kilometers of freight, at 2917.4 billion, as well as inland water transportation, with 110,000 km of navigable waterways.
- In China, trucks carry more than 80% of the nation's goods. However, the trucking industry remains highly fragmented and inefficient. Individuals own more than 90% of trucks on the road, and trucks stand empty 40% of the time. For instance, Truck Alliance is currently hosting 70,000 transactions—equivalent to USD 110 million in shipping costs each day through its app and website. With the online marketplace, truck drivers are able to increase their loads and generate more income, and shippers can reduce overall shipping costs.
- Over the past decade, China's transportation infrastructure network, including road, rail, waterway, and airport systems, has undergone unprecedented growth in terms of length and quality. As of 2021, the length of China's highways exceeded 169,100 kilometers. In the same year, China expanded the length of high-speed railroads to 40,000 kilometers. Regarding air transport infrastructure, the Civil Aviation Administration of China recorded 248 civil airports in 2021, which are fully open for scheduled flights. China's water transport infrastructure was also strengthened with 2,207 and 452 berths of 10,000 tons deadweight and above in its coastal and inland river ports, respectively.
