In 6 months, the national express delivery volume exceeded 80 billion pieces.

According to the monitoring data of the State Post Bureau, as of June 30th, the number of express deliveries in China this year has reached 80 billion, which is 59 days ahead of 2023.

Since the beginning of this year, China's express delivery market has continued to develop rapidly, with an average monthly business volume of over 13 billion pieces. Especially since June, driven by the positive factors such as major promotion on e-commerce platforms, the daily business volume of express delivery exceeds 500 million pieces, and the market scale has rapidly expanded, playing a positive role in promoting consumption, serving production, and ensuring people's livelihoods.

The busy scenes of express delivery guys shuttling between urban and rural areas, high-speed and intelligent sorting lines... not only show the development momentum and vitality continuously released by the express delivery industry, but also vividly demonstrate the continuation of China's economic recovery and improvement trend.

From freshwater crayfish in Shandong Yutai, to auto parts in Zhejiang Tongxiang, to durian in Chumphon Province, Thailand, the express delivery industry continues to enrich service scenarios, expand service areas, and improve service quality. On the one hand, it actively promotes the construction of rural parcel delivery logistics system, effectively opening up the "last kilometer" for agricultural products from the village to the city. On the other hand, it extends services from the consumption field to the production process, providing comprehensive supply chain services such as inbound logistics and warehouse distribution for manufacturing enterprises. At the same time, express delivery companies are also accelerating the development of air transportation service capabilities, creating a safe and reliable, independent and controllable international logistics supply chain system through new and increased intercontinental freight routes and regular international freight routes, and providing more convenient services for more Chinese goods going abroad and foreign goods entering China.

It is worth mentioning that since the large-scale equipment update and the launch of the old-for-new action for consumer goods, express delivery companies have seized the new development opportunities, accelerated the elimination of old sorting and security inspection equipment, increased the application ratio of new energy vehicles, strengthened the application of modern information technologies such as big data, cloud computing, artificial intelligence and blockchain, and promoted the intelligent and low-carbon upgrading of equipment. In addition, express delivery companies are actively developing reverse logistics, launching new development models such as "new-for-old+recycling" and "delivery, installation, disassembly and recycling", helping consumer goods "turn old into new", and continuing to contribute to the sustainable reduction of logistics costs.
