Cross Border Electricity Supplier'S Danger And Machine Product Are Difficult To Go To Sea To Stop Everything!

01

Foreign trade order "disappear" cross border logistics price rise

Small and medium-sized sellers go to sea business "stop" "

In the era of globalization, it seems that everything is knocked down by the new crown virus, followed by the close door of many countries.

From April 3rd to the end of 4, Japan banned entry of foreigners from 73 countries and regions.

Meanwhile, from April 2nd, the Japanese post office will stop accepting packages from 153 countries such as Italy, after which Japan has stopped sending express services to China.

There are still stalled business contacts and factory orders suspended.

According to the Ministry of commerce data, China's foreign trade and import volume totaled 4 trillion and 120 billion yuan in 1-2 months, down 9.6% from the same period last year. Among them, exports of 2 trillion and 40 billion yuan, showing a decline of two digits.

In March 30th, Xin Guobin, Vice Minister of the Ministry of industry and commerce, said: "with the further spread of the international epidemic situation, the situation of China's foreign trade and import and export is likely to deteriorate further." Faced with the predicament, many foreign trade enterprises will turn their attention to the domestic market and look for opportunities for export to domestic sales.

For cross-border electricity providers and cross border logistics practitioners, they struggle to survive in the pause. In the first half of 2020, they are doomed to be memories that this group can not erase.

International logistics costs up to 3 times.

FedEx will receive temporary surcharge from April 6th.

According to "IT times" reporter, all international parcels and heavy cargo exported from mainland China, FedEx increased by 7 yuan per kilogram, while the Asia Pacific and non Asia Pacific region imported 7 yuan and 1.6 yuan per kilogram of international parcel and heavy cargo to mainland China respectively.

FedEx said that the outbreak of the global epidemic caused many countries and regions to issue related restrictions. In the new challenge and operation mode, the cost of the company increased.

A FedEx staff told reporters that most of the current logistics will give priority to the delivery of medical supplies, and the demand for express mail delivery by the C terminal is still strong. "I'm not afraid that the list will be small because of the increase in prices," he said.

UPU (Universal Postal Union) statistics show that from January 23rd to March 23rd this year, the number of mail tonnage and number of UPU members decreased by 10% and 15% respectively.

Compared with the previous year, the members of the Universal Postal Union shipped less than 10 thousand tons of mail, less than 16% of the total number of small pieces below 2kg.

In March 23rd, the Executive Council of the State Council deployed to further enhance China's international air cargo capacity and strive to stabilize the supply chain.

The restrictions on civil aviation flights have also turned many civil aircraft into cargo planes.

But in the Guangzhou Union Logistics Mdt InfoTech Ltd (hereinafter referred to as "Union Logistics"), the market director, Pan Pan seems that although the number of cargo planes has increased, it is still not enough in general.

Union Logistics is mainly responsible for China's round-trip logistics business in the Middle East.

Shi Panpan was obviously affected by the changes in the industry under the epidemic.

Starting from the end of February, Shi pan often met with the cancellation of flights, which led to the prolonged delivery of goods.

4~5 and 6 working days are required for goods to be transported to the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Kuwait before the outbreak.

Today, the time of arrival in the United Arab Emirates is prolonged to 7 days, and Saudi Arabia and Kuwait need 10 days.

Due to the closure of Qatar countries, the logistics operation of the joint logistics company has suspended the shipping business to Qatar, which is about the volume of the previous 1/3 business.

To add insult to injury, cargo flights are in short supply and prices are beginning to rise. Shi Panpan told the IT times, "the cost of the company is almost 3 times higher than before the epidemic."

The cost pressure has increased sharply, and United Logistics is unwilling to lower the salaries of its employees, and can only raise its prices in some non core businesses.

According to Shi Panpan, traditional trade businesses are raising their prices. Now they are transported by a kilogram of masks, with a freight cost of 70 yuan.

He feels pressure from the company, but he is optimistic. He believes that the time for retaliatory consumption will come after the outbreak.

Foreign trade orders "cliff type" decline

Jiaxing Tongxiang people Huajing (a pseudonym) thought that after the enterprise resumed in February 10th, everything would return to normal. But the wind has changed.

At present, domestic achievements have been made in the fight against the epidemic, but overseas epidemic has become increasingly severe.

According to WHO estimates, the total number of confirmed cases of new crown pneumonia in the world will reach 1 million in the next few days, and the cumulative death toll will reach 50 thousand.

The epidemic affected the wool trade order of Huajing company.

Huajing had expected to have retaliatory foreign orders in February. Just because the logistics couldn't keep up with that time, even if the users had needs, Hua Jing could not send the goods abroad.

Now, he used gloomy to describe the foreign trade business in March. With the intensification of foreign epidemic situation, he predicted that the foreign trade orders in April would be 30% less than that in March.

"The foreign trade business is basically over in the next few months," Hua Jing told IT times.

The company's export and domestic sales share is generally around 1:1, and the company will reserve two months' turnover stock.

Today, overseas orders are becoming weaker. Huajing can only hope that domestic export orders will be sold domestically. "Cross border logistics costs are rising, and foreign orders are falling. We must rely on domestic epidemic recovery and digestion capacity."

Today, Huajing no longer wants overseas order mail, but also focuses more on maintaining its existing customers and Alibaba platforms.

"I hope the company can make it through." Hua Jing said he did not want to lose his job in the middle of his life and suffer from the "midlife crisis".

Like Hua Jing, Chen Qin (alias) also squatting on the electronic business platform.

He founded his own brand of snail powder. At the end of last year, he named Taobao's order of 20 boxes of snail powder as "high light moment". The destination of the order is Singapore, which symbolizes the sea of snail powder.

To this end, he specially found a shipping port in Guangdong Province, sent by sea, plus the cost of wooden shelves used for goods, the order of freight costs more than 300 yuan.

Just now facing overseas orders, Chen Qin has resisted sentiment.

Express costs rise, transport time dragging, he is afraid that users can not wait. He is determined to keep the three acres in the country.

　 Overseas e-commerce platform "shop"

Maybe Jianghai (a pseudonym) is lucky.

The store of the Amazon Chinese seller is listed on the list of necessities for Amazon.

Jianghai emphasizes that they sell mainly pet products, including barking devices, dog trainer, wireless fence, etc. even though they are selling intelligent hardware such as universal remote control and pets, they are just a branch of our product line, in order to earn some money.

In March 17th, Chinese sellers received an email notification from Amazon to shut down unnecessary commodities and give priority to the distribution of daily necessities and anti epidemic materials. This policy will continue until April 5th.

Amazon's necessities include baby food, hygiene and household products, beauty and protective products, pet food and books.

There is a clear dividing line between necessities and nonessentials, which are classified as the first category of Chinese merchants. They can strive for replenishment within a month's window period.

Jianghai also sticks to the foreign trade business. Although the air freight cost is about 2.5 times (60 yuan per kilogram) before, the order has fallen by more than half, and the third overseas warehouse has also increased its price.

The sea is eager to buy on the spot.

Cross-border electricity supplier life and death tied to the front line

Wang Ping (a pseudonym) uses her eyes to describe her latest experience in the sea.

In March 13th, the goods she had purchased were packaged until March 19th, and the package was departing from the United States.

You know, it takes only about two weeks to send packages from the United States to the country before the outbreak.

But the United States buys Li Su (a pseudonym) to tell her that the package can be taken back to China in a week, and Wang Ping has become a lucky dog.

Affected by the epidemic, there are not many flights returning to China, and the departure time of the express has been prolonged.

Hai Tao, purchasing agents, buyers... Paris, Tokyo, New York, London...

After nearly 10 years of development, Chinese people learned how to buy good things from the Internet through the most convenient way, and a large number of Chinese purchasing and forwarding companies and electronic business platforms completed the relay race together.

But now, this relay race has been temporarily suspended.

Crisis of small and medium transport companies

In March 30th, Wang Ping's cargo arrived at China customs port.

Wang Ping is lucky. Her purchase of Li Su, Oregon, is a tax-free state. Sending parcels does not require a transshipment bin. During the epidemic period, there will be an order of magnitude less than a barrier.

Another US buying Yu Ling (alias) is upset. The courier company she chooses will provide users with 30 days free storage and then charge 1 dollars per day.

She worried that the express sent two weeks ago was still lying in the courier company.

Not long ago, Yu Ling's city closed. Yu Ling learned that the site of the express company had been closed and employees were not aware of it. She called to ask for a pick up, but was refused by the staff.

"Some small companies can provide door-to-door business, but I'm afraid I lost them." Yu Ling said.

Earlier, Yu Ling encountered a small express company halfway through the situation, although the goods recovered more than a half, but this time consuming effort of the tug of war still gives her a lingering fear. "I hope this company will not disappear during the epidemic."

The US epidemic is becoming more and more serious. Shopping malls and outlets are closing down. Yu Ling and Li Su's buying and selling sideline have come to an end.

　　 Buying on spot is king.

"We only sell the stock, we can't buy it. We sell one piece less. We suggest that the baby keep the skin care products for half a year to one year."

On the cross ocean business platform, the buyers in Britain, Italy, France and the United States alternate live broadcast, luxury, skin care, beauty and jewelry are their "three big pieces".

The stock market is king, and buyers who have been stockpiling before the outbreak of the global epidemic have taken the initiative.

LV shut down, Gucci stopped, Chanel stopped, and France stopped production. Even European cosmetic factories have been shut down.

Buyers are worried about the live broadcast. In their expectation, luxury goods will face a wave of rising prices.

Ocean terminal also launched a "6 phase interest free" service, encouraging consumers to hoard goods.

"Spot stock is not available, it must be available at home, so as to ensure delivery time." Sue works in a beauty shop in Venice, Italy, and works part-time as a buyer.

Before the outbreak of the global epidemic, they contacted the brands daily and exported the stock of Italy to the domestic market. There are still several batches of goods on the way. "Italy on weekdays, it takes a month to go to China."

During the epidemic period, logistics is very unstable, one price per day. But the risk of hoarding is still large. "A product spends hundreds of thousands of stores, which is usually done by big buyers." Su said, small buyers will still choose the way of direct mail.

Compared with Europe, the United States has the longest direct mail to China. "Now the United States direct mail returned to China is two times the original freight, so we should prepare well for 1 to 2 months."

Swallows are specially helping people to place orders for the sea, and earn a difference from their home. Recently, she basically stopped Amoy and focused on Amazon.

Big buyers attack Europe and America, small purchasing run Japan and Korea.

In the two months since the outbreak of the outbreak, the circle of friends in Japan and South Korea has changed dramatically, from selling skin care products to selling fake cottage shoes and T-shirts, acting as a national brand and selling self-made snacks.

Under the epidemic, spot is king.

　　 The danger and opportunity of cross-border electricity providers

During the epidemic, purchase and purchase were unable to be carried out, and demand was transferred to cross-border electricity providers.

Isolation at home greatly triggers people's desire to buy and buy on the electronic business platform.

Luo Yonghao's live debut, Victoria's rocket offensive, live in the freight yard with close combat.

With the rise of anchors and cross-border electricity providers, Chinese people have developed the habit of good things in the sea.

Data show that in the first two months of this year, Guangdong's cross-border e-commerce import and export volume grew by 33.4% over the same period, and Hainan's cross-border e-commerce business grew by 5.5 times.

In February this year, Tmall international, Jingdong international, koala purchase and other import cross-border e-commerce platform orders greatly increased.

The total volume of Jingdong international imports increased by nearly 100% in the first quarter. "3. 8 goddess Festival", Tmall international import home hair removal device turnover grew 850%, which is closely related to the selection of anchor products.

This is undoubtedly an opportunity for cross-border electricity providers. However, as the epidemic intensifies, the supply chain is broken, logistics is blocked, and the crisis is coming.

Foreign terminals and buyers agreed on the supply of reserves.

"Every year in March, the ocean terminal has a big promotion. The buyer on the platform will hoard the goods in 1~2 month, plus our platform anticipate the spread of the epidemic in the world. In early February, a large number of global buyers were organized to sweep the goods."

The wharf believes that the buyer model will be more flexible than the bonded warehouse mode without worrying about inventory pressure.

Jingdong international is mainly based on the bonded warehouse mode. Since the outbreak, Jingdong has subsidized the entry of overseas businesses, and launched traffic support to help businesses increase inventory turnover.

"Airplanes are really hard to tune up," insiders said. The logistics problem is that all cross-border electricity providers must face up to the problem. After Australia closed the border, some of the cross-border electricity suppliers that had normally entered the territory from Australia to Beijing port had to be transferred to Hongkong to enter customs clearance to increase the cost of manpower and material resources.

In addition, in addition to the overseas docks outside the wharf, there are also alternative ways of increasing transfer stations and increasing cargo charter flights to maximize the smooth delivery of international delivery networks.

Amazon, which is mainly based on overseas direct mail, admitted to reporters that due to the impact of international freight capacity, part of the order could be extended, and some goods may be temporarily out of demand due to increased demand.

Beginning in 2019, cross-border buyers of electricity suppliers frequently invested in Australia and Europe, and got the exclusive agent of Italy beauty salon brand ROBEUS, which allowed them to grasp the right of voice of goods allocation in the epidemic situation, and also let brands avoid the risk of backlog of goods.
