"Postal and express cooperation" is one of the important ways for express delivery to enter the village.
According to the latest data released by the State Post Bureau, at present, "Postal Express Cooperation" has been fully launched in 31 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities), covering a total of 239,000 organic villages, with a coverage rate of 48.5%. 400 million pieces.
This is not only a concrete performance of the postal service taking advantage of the advantages of "establishing offices in villages and villages, and providing postal services in every village", but also an important measure to effectively assist express delivery in villages.
In recent years, new progress has been made in express delivery into the village.
By the end of 2021, the on-site check-in rate for delivery in the nationally-organized villages will remain above 97%, and the proportion of organized villages in the western region where the delivery frequency is three times or more per week exceeds 98%.
It can be said that the development of rural express delivery, allowing local products to go out and consumer goods to come in, not only increases farmers' income, but also improves farmers' living standards. It is of great significance to meet the production and living needs of farmers and release rural consumption potential.
The accelerated pace of express delivery into villages and households is inseparable from the construction of rural postal infrastructure.
With the joint promotion of relevant departments, the rural three-level logistics system of Post County has been continuously improved.
In counties and townships, strengthen network transformation and facility allocation, and improve logistics warehousing, distribution and processing capabilities.
In the village, integrate various terminals and expand the service content.
At the same time, we continued to promote the "Postal Express Cooperation" model, and more and more couriers entered the countryside with the help of the postal three-tier logistics system.
Rural express delivery is convenient for the people, but how to be stable and sustainable after entering the village is still a big challenge.
The number of rural villages in my country is large and wide, and the problems of scattered layout, small express delivery business, and high logistics operation costs are still prominent, and the problem of “entering the village” is easy and difficult to “stay in the village”.
A thorough investigation by the State Post Bureau shows that at present, two-thirds of the more than 3,000 natural villages in Dabian have not yet achieved direct postal service.
Most of these Dabian natural villages are located in alpine mountains, Gobi deserts and subtropical mountains and jungles.
To solve the problems of express delivery into villages and make up for these shortcomings of rural express delivery, we must continue to strengthen the role of the rural postal system and make efforts in important links such as service capacity, supply quality, and policy coordination.
Rural express delivery not only needs to deploy service outlets in vast villages to facilitate the accessibility of express delivery, but also requires more refined packaging, warehousing and other value-added services when agricultural products leave the village.
It is necessary to continue to improve the rural postal infrastructure, strengthen the level of motorized rural postal routes, and make it an important channel for the two-way circulation of industrial products to the countryside and agricultural products out of the village.
It is necessary to support the construction of county-level mail processing centers and the upgrading of township post offices, and encourage express delivery, e-commerce and other enterprises to jointly station and share intensively.
The development of rural express delivery is a systematic work involving many industries, management departments, and market participants. It is difficult to make rural express delivery "accessible" and "sustainable" simply by relying on the role of the market.
We should adhere to the direction of market dominance and government guidance, give full play to our existing advantages, further promote the "post and express cooperation", and promote the healthy development of "post and express cooperation" express delivery into the village.
Further improve the cooperative operation mode of postal express delivery, connect service standards, enhance transport capacity and manpower, improve service quality, ensure that the express mail can be received, cast, efficient and serviced well, so that the general public can share more and better economic society. development results.
