About this title

Synopsis

This annual report aims to present a timely portrait of the rapid growth of China's logistics market and the status quo of its logistics industry. It provides an in-depth analysis of critical issues involved in the ongoing dynamic and multi-faceted development and serves as a valuable reference resource for interested readers in the academic and professional fields.

The book starts with an in-depth overview of the achievements and prospects of China's logistics development in the ten years of the "the Belt and Road Initiative", and then covers macro-factors related to logistics technologies and facilities, region-specific policies and plans, industry-wide transformation in transport, manufacturing, commerce, and agriculture. The book also addresses the current state and challenges of logistics digitization in China and trends from the aspects of continuous promotion, upstream and downstream industry collaboration, intelligent transportation infrastructure, application of logistics big models, and government support. Furthermore, the book offers insights into the development and future prospects of China's cross-border e-commerce logistics.

The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence. A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content.
