Yiwu, as a famous small commodity distribution center in China, has emerged many unique logistics modes in its development process, among which hemp car is perhaps the most unique one. Ma Che, also known as "Shu Ge", is a traditional type of truck in Yiwu, whose main task is to haul small commodities. They are made by hand, using traditional skills, and often shuttle between busy areas and alleys in Yiwu city, fully demonstrating the cultural characteristics of Yiwu.

With the arrival of the new era, the development of logistics has been paid more and more attention, and hemp cars are becoming less and less common. However, this ancient mode of transportation is still widely used in Yiwu. Especially in the early days, hemp cars were widely used in the distribution of goods within the city, and even became one of the most gorgeous modes of transportation in Yiwu small commodity market. With the continuous improvement of logistics facilities, many modern means of transportation, such as trucks and vans, have gradually replaced it, but hemp cars, an ancient and special mode of transportation, still have a solid position in Yiwu logistics.

The rapid development of Yiwu's economy is inseparable from the excellent market environment and rich resources, and also from the staff who have been accompanying Yiwu inside and outside the market, such as street vendors and ground transport vehicles. In Yiwu, the special mode of transportation, hemp car, has long lost its important role in the modern sense, but it still has a solid position in many people's hearts. It is these "small hemp cars" that have contributed to the prosperity and development of Yiwu and created a unique business atmosphere. At the same time, this traditional culture has attracted more and more tourists to experience and become an indispensable cultural card in Yiwu.
