In July, the express development scale index was 272.4, a year-on-year increase of 28.2%. In terms of sub-indices, express delivery business volume is expected to complete 6.93 billion pieces, a year-on-year increase of 32%, and the year-on-year increase exceeds 1.5 billion pieces for four consecutive months; express business revenue is expected to complete 73.92 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 21.5%, and volume revenue growth The gap narrowed further and was basically the same as in April. In July, a large number of fresh fruits and vegetables went on the market, with sufficient supply and strong demand. The delivery plan of agricultural products has been continuously expanded and upgraded, which has become an important source of business growth. In order to solve the problem of the "first kilometer" of fresh-keeping to the greatest extent, express companies will move forward the links of receiving, shipping and packaging, and improve the efficiency of fresh-keeping through facilities and equipment such as "mobile convenience" pickup trucks, mobile cold storage, and pretreatment center. Express delivery companies take advantage of the supply chain, expand the sales channels of agricultural products, and help seasonal fruits such as yellow peach, loquat, and selenium melon to become the new favorites on the table, creating a good environment for the promotion of agricultural specialty products.
In July, the express service quality index was 457.6, a year-on-year increase of 53.4%. In terms of sub-indices, the express delivery effective complaint rate is expected to be 0.2 parts per million, an improvement of 50%; consumer satisfaction with express delivery services is 78.6 points, a year-on-year increase of 0.5 points; the 72-hour punctuality rate is 77.3%, a year-on-year increase of 0.3 %. Since July, there have been continuous heavy rains in many parts of my country, and severe floods have occurred in many areas such as the Yangtze River and the Huaihe River. The national flood control and disaster relief work has entered the most critical stage and the most critical juncture, and the delivery channels have been blocked in many places. In order to protect the people’s lives and property, on the one hand, all express companies deliver disaster relief materials free of charge and contribute "express power" to flood relief; on the other hand, they will spare no effort to rush to transport the backlog of express parcels, use the rainstorm gap to increase the delivery density, and pass the main route. Optimize and strengthen measures such as rainproof packaging to ensure unblocked delivery channels and express shipment safety, and try to ensure that the service time limit during the flood period does not drop, and the service quality is not discounted.
In July, the express delivery capability index was 185.5, a year-on-year increase of 19.4%. In terms of sub-indices, it is estimated that the online retail sales of express delivery services will exceed 850 billion yuan, an increase of more than 240 billion yuan year-on-year. One is to continue to increase infrastructure construction. Yuantong Express Jiangsu, Heilongjiang, Hebei Chuangzhi Park and Tiantian Express Tianjin Transit Center were put into operation. Yunda Express Fuling base and Suning cross-border e-commerce national hub, Shanghai E-commerce Industrial Park and South China Green Cold Chain Headquarters started construction.
The second is to steadily improve comprehensive transportation capabilities. In terms of railway transportation, SF Express and China Railway Express launched the "road-rail combined transport + same-day delivery products", and the fastest 6-hour delivery between Chengdu and Chongqing was achieved. In terms of air transportation, Cainiao and Airbridge Airlines opened additional routes between China and Europe; SF Airlines' own all-cargo aircraft further expanded, and the "Huai'an-Fuzhou" route was officially opened. YTO Airlines has been approved to open 14 weekly flights from Shijiazhuang to Macau and 8 weekly flights from Chongqing to Taoyuan, Taiwan.
The third is to focus on strengthening the construction of technological innovation capabilities. JD’s efforts to raise funds are mainly used for key technological innovations based on the supply chain to improve the level of logistics digitalization. Debon and Baidu Maps reached a cooperation on the construction of an intelligent terminal distribution system, and promoted the intelligent upgrade of the terminal by optimizing the location of express delivery stations and improving the planning of the delivery route of couriers. SF Express's terminal service platform "Essex Smart Station" launched the intelligent delivery robot "Xiaoyou" to create comprehensive service functions such as "automated delivery, autonomous elevator ride, peak-shifting service, cloud call notification, and quick pickup with pickup code". Suning Logistics upgraded its micro-warehouse system and helped the home delivery business enter the era of minute-level delivery.
The fourth is to continuously enhance overseas service capabilities. Best launched a full-scene "door-to-door" delivery service from China to Southeast Asia, covering five countries including Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Cambodia and Singapore. Zhongtong held an overseas warehouse groundbreaking ceremony in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. The first phase of the project covers an area of more than 20 acres and the warehouse construction area is nearly 10,000 square meters.
In July, the development trend index was 99.5, an increase of 36.9% year-on-year. It is expected that the express delivery business volume in August will increase by about 33% year-on-year. From the perspective of capital market expectations, 7 express delivery companies are among the top 500 in China, with outstanding performance. In the second half of the year, the express delivery market will usher in a peak business season, and the growth rate will gradually accelerate. The capital market still maintains good expectations for the express delivery industry.
