Original title: Jiangxi Fenyi smoothes the micro cycle of rural delivery logistics (quotation)
Don't worry about "passenger and cargo mail" when going to the city and countryside (theme)
Economic Daily reporter Lai Yongfeng
At 12:30 every day, one bus departs from Huaxiang Bus Logistics Park in Fenyi County, Xinyu City, Jiangxi Province on time and runs to all towns in the county. These vehicles are "passenger and freight" special flights to township service stations. Two or three hours later, the express parcels can be delivered to the villagers. At the same time, the vehicles return to the city and take the agricultural parcels back to the sorting center.
In recent years, Fenyi County, in response to the needs of the rural market, has explored a new way of integrated development of "passenger, cargo and mail" based on rural passenger transport, logistics and postal express enterprises, effectively unblocked the micro cycle of rural delivery and logistics, and activated rural consumption enthusiasm. In the Notice on Promulgating the Demonstration List of Rural E-Commerce and Express Collaborative Development recently issued by the State Post Office, the Ministry of Transport, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs and the Ministry of Commerce, Fenyi Rural Delivery Logistics System has been successfully selected into the list of main building entities of the National Rural E-Commerce and Express Collaborative Development Demonstration Area.
At the e-commerce logistics service station in Caochang Township, Fenyi County, a bus stopped steadily at the door. He Liping, the head of the logistics service station, was busy taking the package off the bus. "These are all express deliveries from nearby villagers. There are about two or three hundred pieces every day. When it comes to e-commerce promotions, the number of express deliveries will double." He Liping said while sorting out the packages.
The Playground Township is located in a remote area. In the past, only the postal express could reach the villagers' online shopping. If you want to send other express, you need to go to the county seat 40 kilometers away. In order to solve the problem of express delivery into villages, Fenyi County promoted eight express enterprises in the county, including Yuantong, Zhongtong and Yunda, to integrate the business of express delivery to the countryside, set up a third party express company of Fenyi Tongyi Yida, settled in the e-commerce express logistics sorting center, and set up e-commerce logistics service stations in nine villages and towns. Through "unified distribution, unified transportation, unified delivery, unified receipt, and unified cost sharing" In this way, more than 80% of express packages are distributed in the same warehouse, which greatly improves the delivery efficiency of rural logistics and effectively reduces the logistics operation cost. The cost of rural express business has been saved by more than 25%. The delivery time limit of rural mail has changed from three days to "one day" and "the next day". Online shopping has gradually become a common way of consumption for villagers.
"Summer is coming. Yesterday, I bought an electric fan while taking advantage of the platform for activities, which has already received the goods." Huang Juan, a resident of Playground Township who just picked up the package from the service station, said that she would come here almost every week after the express point. With the popularity of online shopping, the consumption demand of villagers has also changed, extending from clothing department stores to large and small household appliances. "In the past two years, packages have become larger and larger. Most people buy refrigerators because of the large online discounts and warranty," He Liping said.
The expansion of the rural express service network has enabled express delivery to "go to the countryside" smoothly, and has also unblocked the way for agricultural products to leave the village. In the logistics service station hall, many villagers lined up with their own agricultural products, waiting to load the goods onto the vehicle. "This time I want to send mushrooms to the suppliers in the city. In the past two years, I have cooperated with them and earned tens of thousands of yuan a year." Huang Yougen, a villager in Shangsong Village, Playground Township, told reporters that all the vegetables I planted were sold in the market town, but the price was unstable, and sometimes they could not be sold; Now it is purchased by the suppliers in the city through logistics delivery. There is no need to worry about not selling it anymore, and the income is more stable.
"Now there is a large number of express deliveries to the countryside, about 4000 pieces every day. In addition to taking the 'free ride' of urban and rural passenger transport routes to deliver express deliveries, after 12:30 every day, we will arrange five or six special buses to transport the express deliveries to nine township service stations." Ouyang Hongsheng, the head of Huaxiang Bus Logistics Park, said that by using the existing passenger stations, village post stations and other resources, They have opened up the three-level logistics distribution system, formed a node network of "one center, nine fulcrums, and multiple terminals", completed the terminal distribution and collection of express delivery, realized the grid distribution service, radiated nine township comprehensive transportation service stations, 69 urban stations, and 107 village level service points, achieved 100% coverage of rural areas, and unblocked the two-way logistics channel between urban and rural areas.
Convenient e-commerce logistics has activated rural consumption and helped agricultural products go up. After more than 10 years of development, Fenyi Rural E-Commerce was included in the construction of "National E-commerce into Rural Comprehensive Demonstration County" in 2018, and was approved as the first batch of rural logistics service brands in China in 2020. According to statistics, in 2023, the rural mail delivery business volume of Fenyi County will be about 1.5 million pieces, bringing the express business income of 15 million yuan, an increase of about 7% year on year. In the first four months of this year, the county's express business volume was 11.07 million, up 24.5% year on year, including 514800 rural express inbound and 14900 outbound.
