State Post Bureau: China's annual express delivery volume will exceed 150 billion pieces for the first time on November 17, 2024

Monitoring data from the State Post Bureau showed that as of November 17, my country's annual express delivery volume exceeded 150 billion pieces for the first time. On the afternoon of the 17th, on the big screen of the State Post Bureau's China Express Big Data Platform, the long characters "150000000000" were displayed. The 150 billionth express delivery was a box of Huaniu apples collected by Jitu Express and sent from Tianshui, Gansu to Chongqing. A consumer placed an order on the Pinduoduo platform.

Since the beginning of this year, my country's express delivery market has remained prosperous and active, with continuous improvement in development quality and efficiency. It has accelerated industrial upgrading and boosted production and consumption, making important contributions to better improving economic operation efficiency and unblocking the circulation of the real economy.

The continued expansion of the express delivery market is driven by favorable macro policies. Many departments and regions have issued support policies to expand domestic demand, taking the implementation of large-scale equipment renewal and consumer goods trade-in actions as an opportunity to continuously enrich consumption scenarios, open up sinking markets, consolidate the current positive development trend, and drive strong growth in express delivery business. At the same time, thanks to the increasingly improved top-level design, efficient and accessible service network, and the widespread application of intelligent technology, express delivery companies continue to improve infrastructure construction, actively deploy unmanned vehicles, drones, intelligent sorting and other advanced technical equipment, the industry's transportation and transshipment capabilities are increasing, the network system is gradually improving, and service efficiency and quality are effectively improved. Nowadays, from small items such as needles and thread, firewood, rice, oil and salt, to large items such as agricultural machinery parts and refrigerators and color TVs, consumers only need to tap on the screen of their mobile phones, and the courier can deliver it on the same day at the earliest.

Since the beginning of this year, the regional development structure of the postal express industry has become more balanced, the proportion of express delivery in the central and western regions has continued to increase, and the growth rate of business volume has exceeded the national average. Packages shuttle from east to west, north to south, weaving a unified national market where goods flow smoothly.
