Rising Oil Prices And Rising Express Prices Are Inevitable Trends.

"Finally understand a new term: forced price increases!"

In April 7th, there were media reports that STO and Hainan express opened the door of price increase every day, increasing to 3~6 yuan per unit. After that, the major express companies were very likely to follow suit, and the collective price rises would be completed before the May Day.

Yesterday (April 9th), STO told the daily economic news reporter that in some areas, due to the increase in oil prices and labor costs, the prices of some outlets actually increased slightly, which is a normal market fluctuation, but not a price increase. At present, headquarters have not issued any price increase information.

However, STO Cao director general told the daily economic news that if the oil price continues to rise, the express industry will continue to rise.

Xu Yong, chief consultant of China Express network, said: "in July, the price of express industry will usher in a rigid upward trend.

If the price is not increased, the express industry will decline in service quality or make an issue on the express weight.

Shen Tong: dot price rises are normal fluctuations.

Morning star is urgent. "

The daily economic news reporter found that there were media reports that the courier price of STO from Wenzhou to Xinjiang and Tibet rose from 15 yuan / single to 21 yuan / single; Hainan express daily sent express price to Xinjiang from 15 yuan / single to 18 yuan / single.

In this regard, STO marketing director Xia Zubin said in his micro-blog that he could not "take the case to pform the concept into the whole STO price increase". The director of the company, Cao, also said to the daily economic news yesterday, "headquarters has not issued any price increase information".

Cao told the "daily economic news" reporter that STO has internal "outlets guidance price", and the moderate price adjustment of all outlets in the guidance price range is a normal market fluctuation. "Customers do not understand the situation will see it as a price increase".

According to the reporters, the express industry was the first floating pricing mechanism, and later changed to a fixed pricing mechanism.

Xu Yong, chief consultant of China Express network, told the daily economic news that at present, the domestic express price is not controlled by the state. In addition to the downwind and EMS, most of the express companies belong to the franchise system. The pricing power is in the hands of franchisees. However, under the restriction of the single service industry of the express industry and the homogenization competition, the standard of the franchisee pricing is that the market can accept it.

Reporters also want to interview Hainan Airlines daily express, which is also known as the price hike. But after many contacts, the staff have indicated that the matter is sensitive and needs leadership instructions. As of press release, it did not give any response.

In the face of hearsay, it has not been involved in the rhyme express of the "price rise" storm. It said, "there is no news release, and some will be released on the official website."

July or rigid price increases

Cao told the "daily economic news" reporter, "in the case of sharp increase in the cost of manpower and oil prices, at present, Shen Tong has begun data monitoring and calculation, doing preliminary market work to calculate whether the increase in cost has exceeded the scope of the enterprise."

Cao said that if the price of oil continues to rise, the price of the express industry is imperative. However, unlike some media reports, the price increase will not happen in recent months.

If the price increases, the headquarters will publish the "client notification" on the website, and the next outlets will explain to the customers.

Rhyme express also told the daily economic news reporter that the price will rise in the future, but how and how to rise will depend on the development of the market and the volume of business.

"It is estimated that the price of express industry will rise rigidly in July.

If the price is not increased, the express industry will decline in service quality or make an issue on the express weight.

Xu Yong once again stressed to the daily economic news reporter that the development of the express industry is not healthy without price increases, and the cumulative effect of rising oil prices has reached a critical point.
