Joint Deployment Of Multi Departments To Relieve Logistics Pressure Of Foreign Trade Enterprises

According to the reporter of economic reference news, in order to ease the logistics pressure of foreign trade enterprises, in recent years, many departments have deployed frequently to increase the international logistics guarantee faced by foreign trade enterprises by improving the shipping capacity, improving the transportation efficiency of China EU trains, increasing the supply of containers and improving the level of trade facilitation.

According to the "analysis report on China's export container transport market in January 2021" released by Shanghai Shipping Exchange, China's export container transport market continued to perform strongly in January, with the ocean shipping line market price rising and the composite index rising. In January, the average value of the composite freight index of China's export containers released by Shanghai Shipping Exchange was 1906.13 points, an average increase of 27.8% over the previous month; spot booking prices of ocean shipping routes remained at a high level after continuous rise, reflecting the spot market of Shanghai export containers composite index in January was 2871.50 points, an average increase of 16.9% over the previous month. 　

? ? Pang Chaoran, an associate researcher at the Research Institute of the Ministry of Commerce, told the economic reference news that since May 2020, the sea freight prices have continued to rise, and the costs of some small and medium-sized foreign trade enterprises have increased significantly. The main reasons are that China's foreign trade development situation has exceeded expectations, and the disconnection between shipping supply and demand leads to market price rise; there are certain structural problems in the international transportation of foreign trade products; and the epidemic situation leads to customs clearance The efficiency is declining. In order to ease the freight pressure of foreign trade enterprises, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, many departments have deployed one after another in recent years to increase the coordination of transport capacity. At the recent press conference, the Ministry of Commerce made it clear that many industries, business associations and enterprises have reflected the lack of shipping capacity and the sharp rise in freight rates. The Ministry of Commerce, together with the Ministry of transport, the development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of industry and information technology, the general Administration of customs and other departments, is doing a good job in improving the shipping capacity, improving the efficiency of China EU trains, increasing the supply of containers and improving the trade convenience To promote the smooth operation of international logistics. 　

? ? ? Subsequently, the water transport bureau of the Ministry of transport and the Department of foreign trade of the Ministry of Commerce held a video forum, proposing that the liner companies and port enterprises should further strengthen communication and cooperation with import and export enterprises, form a win-win and long-term stable cooperative relationship, continue to increase China's shipping capacity and supply of empty containers, and further strengthen cooperation with foreign ports, agency companies and other parties To improve the efficiency of container collection and distribution; to actively sign long-term transport contracts to lock in transport capacity and freight; to operate strictly in accordance with the regulations, collect fees according to the regulations, and fulfill the duty of recording freight rates. 　

Pang Chaoran said that considering that there is no special department to supervise the international shipping situation, the relevant functions are scattered in the departments of Commerce, customs and transportation.

? ? In this regard, it is necessary to coordinate the relevant functions of relevant departments, comprehensively track the current and future international shipping price fluctuations and transport capacity, implement key monitoring on key routes, timely grasp the market supply and demand docking situation, understand enterprise policy demands, guide shipping enterprises to improve business efficiency, standardize charging behavior, timely issue accurate support policies, and prevent the development of international shipping industry The rise of international shipping price can hedge the effect of China's foreign trade policy, help foreign trade enterprises, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, tide over difficulties, and promote the steady and healthy development of China's foreign trade.
