Parcel Express Market Opening Policy Completely Forced Dark Horse To Run Fast

The express industry was once called "a dark horse of China's economy" by Premier Li Keqiang. Now the industry is forced by policy.

Yesterday (September 24th), premier of the State Council

Chaired a State Council executive meeting, decided to fully open the domestic parcel express market, to meet the licensing conditions of foreign express enterprises, according to approved business scope and business area to issue business license.

At the same time, it will further simplify operation permit procedures and promote linkage development between express delivery, e-commerce and manufacturing.

Li Keqiang said that the express industry is of great significance for stimulating consumption and promoting economic development.

We should open up the domestic express companies to better improve their management and service level, and facilitate the businesses and hundreds of millions of people.

Industry experts believe that, from the current situation, the current mainstream of all the express industry in the world is local enterprises, which are open to foreign investment and have little impact on the domestic express industry.

Openness has little impact on the industry.

At present, our country's

With the rapid development, it has become the second largest express industry in terms of business volume. However, the revenue of domestic express companies is still less than that of foreign giants.

At the China Development Forum held in March this year, Premier Li Keqiang introduced the ambitious Chinese competitor to Schwed, chairman, President and CEO of FedEx, one of the representatives of overseas participants.

"I once asked China.

The head of the company, your goal is to be China's Fedex (FedEx)? He told me, "no, we need to exceed Fedex to be a world-class courier company!" Li Keqiang said.

He promised that China would open the market wider and orderly, so that the logistics industry could form a more equitable competition environment.

He also reminded Schwed to "prepare well for competition with Chinese counterparts".

Six months later, Li Keqiang chaired the executive meeting of the State Council, decided to fully open the domestic parcel express market, and issued the business license to foreign express enterprises that meet the licensing conditions according to approved business scope and business area.

Li Keqiang said that further opening up the domestic market and enabling domestic and foreign express companies to compete with one another will help domestic enterprises to better improve their management and service levels and give consumers more choices.

At the same time, it is also conducive to the healthy development of domestic express enterprises.

But at the same time, how will the domestic express enterprises be affected? "Foreign capital will not affect the domestic market in the short term after opening up."

Xu Yong, chief consultant of China Express consultancy network, told the daily economic news reporter that the whole domestic express market is polarizing now. Foreign capital is in the mainstream of the international market and domestic enterprises dominate the domestic market.

Xu Yong said, in the long run, it will not have much impact, because when he inspected the European Union, the United States and Japan, he found that the enterprises in the country were the mainstream of the express industry, and there was no foreign capital in the mainstream.

The executive meeting held that pushing the express industry to become a "dark horse" for the development of modern service industry can also promote the logistics industry, further invigorate circulation, stimulate domestic demand, increase social employment, and actively contribute to steady growth, structural adjustment and people's livelihood.

While accelerating the opening of the express industry, we should keep pace with the pace of reform.

Li Keqiang stressed that to fully open the domestic parcel delivery market, we must adhere to the combination of decentralization and supervision after the event, so as to ensure the healthy and orderly development of the express industry.

The industry is looking forward to the introduction of technical standards.

The courier industry was once called "a dark horse of China's economy" by Premier Li Keqiang, but the courier industry had implemented the administrative licensing system for many years, so that the horse could not run.

The reporter understands that the establishment of a nationwide network express company requires a lot of process formalities. If the newly established non legal person branches are set up according to the needs of the business, it will take up to 150 days before and after. Apart from the newly established branches, the common change addresses, legal persons and other matters of enterprises will also need to undergo a long process.

When the topic involves "examination and approval", the premier said, "foreigners do not understand this word."

He talked about the talks with 10 Chinese and foreign entrepreneurs in the Shanghai free trade zone a week ago: "the grievances" of the head of a company. Before entering the FTA, the bidding documents for overseas mergers and acquisitions must be marked "if the government fails to approve the examination, the paction will be automatically cancelled".

This means that the competition has not yet started, and it is "lost at the starting line".

After entering the FTA, this situation has greatly improved. However, there is still a limit on the amount of overseas investment, and the approval of the relevant departments still exceeds the quota, which restricts the further development of enterprises.

He immediately asked: "the approval department set up such approval process, if the enterprise investment loses money, do you give him a subsidy? If you have the determination to make allowance according to the amount of the enterprise deficit, such approval can be retained; if there is no such determination, then these approvals should be abolished!"

According to the arrangement of yesterday's executive meeting, we will improve the operation permit procedure, strengthen qualification examination, simplify procedures and improve efficiency.

At the same time, the meeting believed that we should promote the joint development of express delivery with e-commerce and manufacturing, and smoothly connect with the comprehensive pportation system, and support the solution of the difficulties of urban express delivery.

Secure delivery.

"I think now for the express industry, the key incentive policy is to create a good environment for the express industry."

Xu Yong said that at present, there is no express vehicle in China's private express companies, which is also the biggest obstacle to the development of express companies.

"Promoting the joint development of express delivery with e-commerce and manufacturing industry is a medium and long-term development. In the short term, it is still necessary to solve the problem of express vehicle legality."

Xu Yong thinks.

For the domestic express companies, there is another policy of the State Council, which is to encourage the express enterprises to merge and restructure, perfect and implement the system of reorganization and record, foreign capital merger and acquisition examination.

We should strengthen the management of agents and franchisees, and seriously investigate illegal operations, over scope operations and illegal agents.

Next, this wave of policy benefits will be implemented to private express companies, but Xu Yong believes that too fast growth is not a good phenomenon. Blindly pursuing business volume will only sacrifice the quality of service.

Since the beginning of June, the number of effective complaints received by the state post office which has been gradually declining has begun to increase.

In August, the State Post Office accepted an effective increase in the number of complaints from consumers about the express business, an increase of 23.4% over the same period last year. In May, the data was still -9.0%.

"Now there are no national technical standards for express vehicles."

Xu Yong said that the State encourages private enterprises to become bigger and stronger, and merger and reorganization. However, at present, many policy problems in the reorganization will not be solved and enterprises will not invest.

"We must introduce product standards for express delivery. Only in this way can we have a standard to supervise."

Xu Yong said.
