According to statistics from Nanjing Customs, from January to October this year, Jiangsu’s China-Europe (Asia) trains achieved an increase in both the number of trips and the value of goods. Jiangsu China-Europe freight trains are “running at full speed” to provide strong support for maintaining the stability and smoothness of the industrial and supply chains and the development of high-quality services.

At the China-Kazakhstan (Lianyungang) Logistics Cooperation Base, a China-Europe freight train loaded with generator sets, car tires, steel plates and other goods departed from the base and will depart from the Khorgos Railway Port, passing through Kazakhstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. It is expected that It will arrive at Almaty, Tashkent, Chukursey and other stations respectively in 6-8 days.

Kong Xiangwei, deputy general manager of Lianyungang China-Kazakhstan International Logistics Co., Ltd., said: “As of the end of October, the China-Kazakhstan (Lianyungang) Logistics Cooperation Base has achieved full coverage of major sites in Central Asia, and has completed 32.63 million tons of goods in and out of the warehouse, including containers, empty and heavy containers. The inbound and outbound volume was 1.877 million TEUs, and the train transit volume leads the country.”

As the “circle of friends” of China-Europe freight trains continues to expand, more and more companies are taking the China-Europe freight trains to expand international markets. In the warehouse of an international logistics company in Suzhou, 700 containers of goods will be sent to Russia on the Suzhou train “China-Russia Express”. The train operates in the “fast train” mode, relying on priority reloading at port stations, optimized customs clearance at local customs, etc. It can reach the destination of Moscow in 12 days, shortening the transportation time by 4 to 5 days.

Song Ke, general manager of the multimodal transport division of Jiangsu Feiliks International Logistics Co., Ltd., said: “Shortening the delivery time will allow production companies to quickly withdraw funds, which will further promote the organization of supply in the future.”

According to statistics from Nanjing Customs, from January to October this year, Jiangsu China-Europe (Asia) trains operated a total of 1,854 trains with a cargo value of 26.211 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 14.2% and 12.3% respectively. The launch of China-Europe freight trains not only delivers “Made in China” to countries along the route, but also brings back high-quality products from the countries along the route. From January to October this year, Jinling Customs, a subsidiary of Nanjing Customs, completed customs clearance for 32 return trains, with a total of 2,582 TEUs of imported goods worth over 700 million yuan, involving more than 100 companies in Shanghai, Nanjing, Suzhou, Wuxi, etc. Today, the “terminal station” of Nanjing’s China-Europe freight trains has been extended to the Comprehensive Bonded Area, achieving a seamless connection between the bonded advantages of the Comprehensive Bonded Area and the convenience of China-Europe freight train transportation.
