Linyi logistics parks, including Huafeng and Huayi, recently signed agreements with Yiwanggou, a cross-border e-commerce platform to leverage the digital platform to promote the integrated development of logistics and trade.

The cooperation aims to connect trade and logistics platforms through system integration and data sharing, fostering the organic integration of commerce and logistics while empowering the transformation and upgrading of logistics parks and wholesale markets.

Yiwanggou is a one-stop trade procurement platform built on Linyi's mature logistics system and digital technologies, designed to lower costs and better match supply with demand. Since its launch last October, the platform has registered more than 30,000 users, including over 3,000 merchants and 270 logistics companies, covering 273 cities nationwide.

The platform connects buyers and producers in real time, lowering sourcing costs, while reducing logistics expenses by directing dispersed orders to logistics parks for consolidated dispatch, and adding QR codes that provide freight subsidies to waybills.

Logistics enterprises can further leverage this platform by setting up multiple collection points across the city and operating specialized shuttle fleets. This approach would enable smart and centralized cargo pickup, and significantly reduce the empty run rates and costs associated with fragmented pickups.
