On the morning of July 20, 10 containers loaded with logs imported from the Netherlands were unloaded at the 4# berth of Guigang Wharf, becoming the first batch of imported logs from foreign trade to domestic trade containers in Guigang Port.
This marks the smooth opening of the new international water transportation and logistics channel of Guigang Wood Industry, which will provide a stronger platform support for Guigang City to accelerate the improvement of industrial development level and build a 100 billion wood industry.
Guigang City enjoys the reputation of "South Plate Capital" and is an important plywood and veneer production and processing base and forestry product distribution center in the country. In 2021, the output value of the entire wood industry chain will exceed 80 billion yuan, and the number of wood processing enterprises has reached more than 3,500.
Although Guigang Wood Industry has a huge market body, most of the logistics has been dominated by automobile and railway transportation. The transportation cost is high, the transportation capacity is unstable, the foreign trade demurrage fee is serious, and the logistics method urgently needs a "quality" leap.
Guigang Wharf implements a precise marketing strategy, and implements the combined form of container waterway transportation from foreign trade to domestic trade based on the green channel principle of “water is suitable for water, simultaneous use of public water, green and high-quality, cost reduction and high efficiency”, and the logistics cost is reduced by about approx. It is 600 yuan per box, which effectively reduces the risk of stagnation, and has the advantages of green environmental protection, high efficiency and convenience.
In the next step, Guigang Terminal will further expand and implement new business models, improve the diversification and diversity of channels; formulate customer-specific service plans, promote the comprehensive improvement of Guigang Terminal's service capabilities, and continue to help Guigang City rely on the port to do a good job of "going east" The two articles "Go South" fully and deeply integrate into the development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, actively integrate into the construction of the new land-sea corridor in the west, and lead high-quality development through openness and cooperation.
