Internationally, the logistics industry is regarded as the artery and basic industry of national economic development, and its degree of development has become one of the important symbols to measure the degree of modernization and comprehensive national strength of a country, and has been referred to as the "gas pedal" to promote economic development.

I. The current situation and main features of the development of China's logistics industry

Relative to the logistics industry in developed countries, China's logistics industry is still in the initial stage of development, and the main features of its development are:

1. Enterprise logistics is still the focus of the logistics activities of society as a whole, and the demand for specialized logistics services has begun to emerge

In recent years, with the formation of the buyer's market, enterprises have become more and more interested in logistics services, and the demand for logistics services has been increasing.

At the same time, the demand for specialized logistics services has emerged and the momentum of development is extremely rapid. Among them, multinational corporations engaged in production, sales and procurement activities in China and the domestic advantage of the rapid development of the demand for specialized logistics services, to drive the development of China's logistics industry is a very important market base. In addition, some emerging economic areas, such as private enterprises, express service industry and e-commerce, etc., there is also a certain scale of demand for logistics services.

2. Specialized logistics enterprises began to emerge, diversified logistics services have a certain degree of development

In recent years, China's economy, the emergence of many logistics enterprises, mainly composed of three parts, one is the international logistics enterprises, such as Denmark, favorable logistics companies. These international logistics companies, on the one hand, for its original customers - multinational companies to enter the Chinese market to provide extended logistics services, on the other hand, for the Chinese market is generating and developing specialized logistics services demand for services.

The second is the transformation of traditional transportation, storage and wholesale trade enterprises into logistics enterprises. Relying on the original logistics business foundation and advantages in customers, facilities, operating networks, etc., they are gradually transforming into modern logistics enterprises by continuously expanding and extending their logistics services. For example, Sinotrans Group.

Third, the new specialized logistics enterprises, such as Guangzhou's Bao供物流公司, Beijing Huayuntong Logistics Company, etc.. These enterprises rely on flexible competitive strategies and knowledge of specialized logistics, faster development in the market competition, and become a force to be reckoned with in the development of China's logistics industry.

In the logistics enterprises continue to emerge and rapid development at the same time, diversified forms of logistics services have also developed to a certain extent. On the one hand, around the freight forwarding, commercial distribution, multimodal transport, socialized storage and transportation services, circulation processing and other logistics functions and links of the rapid development of specialized logistics services. On the other hand, the systematic logistics services are starting or total logistics services, that is, by the logistics enterprises for production, distribution enterprises to provide logistics services from logistics program design to the organization and implementation of the logistics of the whole logistics.

3. Logistics infrastructure and equipment development is taking shape

After years of development, China has been in the transportation, warehousing facilities, information and communication, cargo packaging and handling and other logistics infrastructure and equipment has made great progress, for the development of the logistics industry has laid the necessary material foundation.

In terms of storage and transportation facilities, China has built a comprehensive transportation system consisting of five parts: railroad transportation, road transportation, waterway transportation, air transportation and pipeline transportation, and the construction of transportation lines and stations as well as transportation vehicles and equipment have seen greater development. In terms of warehousing facilities, in addition to the transportation sector, such as freight hubs and field stations and other warehousing facilities, China's commercial, materials, foreign trade, food, the military and other industries in the relative concentration of warehousing facilities in recent years, the development of relatively rapid, the annual scale of investment in a rapid growth trend.

In terms of information and communication, China now has a telecommunications network trunk cable more than 300,000 kilometers, and has basically formed a fiber-optic cable as the main body of digital microwave and satellite communications as an auxiliary means of high-capacity digital trunk transmission network, which covers more than the city and 90% of the country's county cities and most of the townships and the world's major international information network connectivity. In addition EDI, ERP, MRP, GPS and some other technologies around the logistics information exchange, management and control have also been widely used, to a certain extent, to improve the level of China's logistics information management, and promote the improvement of logistics efficiency.

In the packaging and handling facilities, modern packaging technology and cargo handling technology has been widely used in China, to a certain extent, to improve China's logistics activities in the transportation of goods in the scattered situation and the traditional manual handling, and led to the packaging, handling and other machinery and equipment manufacturing development.
