Spring Festival Express Service "Flameout" &Nbsp; Online Shopping Logistics Costs Rise

Because of the explosion,

Spring Festival

Although the state post office had issued a notice, it was requested that express companies should not stop or receive express mail during the Spring Festival. However, the reporters found that many private couriers had stopped taking part, and a few companies that still received them said they would probably send them later.

The staff of Beijing communications company told reporters that the company would not pick up the pieces either in the field or in the same city.

Rhyda Beijing staff said that in addition to the express sent to Shanghai, Beijing sent to other parts of the country's express pieces were suspended.

Taobao online merchants also posted notices, saying that apart from China Post EMS and Shun Feng express, the major express companies have gradually stopped collecting express goods, so the shipment will be EMS and SF.

A private courier company, who did not want to be named, told reporters that the reason why the collection was stopped was that too many Express items were accumulated before, and that most of the employees were outsiders. The Spring Festival was going home. In order to ensure that the accumulated express should be delivered as soon as possible, the new express must be stopped.

It is noteworthy that the existing courier companies can only receive EMS and Shun Feng, one of which is a traditional state-owned enterprise and one is a private courier leader. The common feature is that the price is high, which can basically reach 1 times the price of other private couriers.

Therefore, during the Spring Festival, consumers of online shopping will face the problem of large increase in express delivery costs.

During the holidays, people who are busy at the moment are having free online shopping, but the express service is "flameout", which makes the online shopping market lose a big business opportunity.

For the Spring Festival "flameout" problem in the express industry, which has become a "Convention", insiders say that the express industry has been in a passive state before the hot online shopping market. At present, the courier industry in China is still in the stage of vicious price competition. The low profit state makes the recruited workers mainly the migrant workers who have low labor costs.

To fundamentally solve this problem, we must start with the coordinated development of online shopping and express delivery industry.
