There is a close relationship between the development of urbanization and cold chain logistics. So, what market opportunities will China's urbanization and global urbanization and related issues bring to the development of cold chain logistics in the future?
We look at the level of urbanization, but also the population and urban development. The population of Chinese cities is the largest in the world. We not only have megacities, but also a large number of small and medium-sized cities. What does such a large number of cities mean for the cold chain logistics industry? It means that we have a huge market, because all The cold chain logistics of China must be connected with the city. The development trend of urbanization in the future determines the changes in China's economic growth, changes in per capita income levels, and changes in the logistics industry.
In addition, the growth of residents' income and changes in consumption structure also determine the future development prospects of cold chain logistics. my country has now entered the ranks of high-income countries. By 2030, my country's residents' income will continue to grow. By 2030, it is estimated that per capita GDP can reach nearly 110,000 yuan. The growth of per capita GDP means that the consumption structure will undergo fundamental changes.
It is also worth noting that there is not a complete correspondence between production areas and consumption areas, which requires us to solve these problems through cold chain logistics and transportation. Therefore, cold chain logistics and transportation will play a fundamental role in making up for the differences in the consumption structure between regions.
For example, the top ten regions in milk production and the top ten regions in our consumption partly correspond, and some do not correspond, and cold chain logistics in regions that do not correspond will have great opportunities. If we judge these gaps, we also know the direction of the entire cold chain transportation and resource allocation in the future. The changes in the country's entire agricultural structure and the consumption structure of agricultural products need to be resolved through our logistics, which in turn will also stimulate changes in the quality structure of agricultural products.
