What are the advantages and disadvantages of the spatial layout of Shanghai logistics industry?

The advantages and disadvantages of the spatial layout of Shanghai logistics industry are as follows:

The advantages of the spatial layout scheme of Shanghai logistics industry are mainly reflected in the following aspects. First of all, Shanghai is located in the center of the delta, with convenient transportation and obvious geographical advantages. As an important city in the middle of Chinese mainland's coastline, Shanghai is the first port of call for liner companies, with convenient maritime transportation. Secondly, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai and East China, where Shanghai is located, are full of economic vitality, with large trade volume and wide supply in the rear. Through river-sea combined transport, they can connect import and export sources such as Chongqing, Wuhan, Anqing, Nanchang and Nanjing, which has economic advantages. In addition, the Yangtze River Delta region has a huge consumer market, and the China International Import Expo (CIIE) held every year attracts importers from all over the world, which provides a market advantage for the Shanghai logistics industry.

However, there are also some shortcomings in the spatial layout scheme of Shanghai logistics industry. First of all, due to the huge volume of logistics in Shanghai, it is difficult to deal with emergencies such as sudden epidemic, which is a disadvantage. Secondly, Yangshan Port is far away from the urban area, and the logistics and transportation need extra expenses, which increases the logistics cost. Finally, Shanghai is facing the competition and impact of the second-class ports in the Yangtze River Delta region, which is also a disadvantage.
