As an important support for economic operation, the logistics industry has faced huge challenges and changes during the epidemic. As an important part of logistics, international express delivery has also undergone significant changes in its operation mode and influence.
First, from the perspective of transportation, due to restrictions on the flow of people and the strengthening of epidemic prevention measures, the transportation routes and methods of international express delivery have to be adjusted. The previously busy air transportation has been greatly affected, with fewer flights and reduced capacity, which has challenged the timeliness of express delivery. In response to this situation, logistics companies have increased their investment in sea and land transportation resources, optimized transportation routes, and improved transportation efficiency.
At the same time, strict epidemic prevention requirements in the loading, unloading and sorting of goods make the operation process more complicated and time-consuming. Staff need to carry out frequent disinfection and protective measures, which slows down the speed of cargo processing to a certain extent. But for this reason, logistics companies pay more attention to technological innovation and the application of automated equipment to improve work efficiency and reduce personnel contact.
In the delivery process of express delivery, in order to ensure safety, contactless delivery has become the mainstream method. During the delivery process, couriers try to avoid direct contact with the recipients and place the goods at a designated location for the recipients to pick up. Although this method increases the difficulty and cost of delivery to a certain extent, it effectively reduces the risk of transmission and protects the health and safety of the public.
In addition, the demand structure of international express delivery business has also changed. During the epidemic, the express delivery demand for medical supplies, protective equipment and daily necessities increased significantly. However, the express delivery demand for some non-urgent and non-essential goods decreased. This change has prompted logistics companies to allocate resources more accurately and give priority to the transportation and distribution of key materials.
From the perspective of consumers, people have become more dependent on online shopping due to the reduction of unnecessary outings. This has kept the business volume of international express delivery relatively stable in general. However, consumers have also put forward higher requirements for the quality and speed of express delivery services. They hope to receive the purchased goods in a timely and accurate manner, and the safety and integrity of the goods can be guaranteed during the express delivery process.
In order to meet the needs of consumers, logistics companies continue to strengthen information construction and improve the transparency of logistics tracking and inquiry. Consumers can learn about the location and status of express delivery in real time through mobile applications or websites, which enhances their trust and satisfaction with express delivery services.
At the same time, the government has also introduced a series of policy measures to support the development of the logistics industry during the epidemic. For example, it has increased financial subsidies for logistics companies, provided tax incentives, simplified approval procedures, etc. These policies have provided a strong guarantee for the stable development of international express delivery.
However, international express delivery also faces some problems and challenges in its development. For example, the rapid development of cross-border e-commerce has led to intensified competition in the international express delivery market, and some small logistics companies are facing survival pressure. In addition, the differences in laws, regulations, standards and cultures between different countries and regions have also brought certain obstacles to business expansion.
In short, with the government calling on citizens to reduce unnecessary outings, the international express delivery industry has undergone profound changes and adjustments. Through the efforts and innovations of all parties, the international express delivery industry has continuously adapted to new situations and demands, and has played an important role in ensuring the normal operation of the social economy and people's living needs. In the future, with the gradual improvement of the epidemic situation and the recovery of the economy, the international express delivery industry is expected to usher in new development opportunities and challenges.
