Recently, affected by the complicated and changeable domestic and international economic situation and epidemic situation, many enterprises have reported that they are faced with problems such as the decrease of imported materials, the difficulty in finding a box of export goods, the doubling of international shipping prices and the substantial increase of logistics costs in the process of “three services”. How to solve these problems?
Lin ‘an District Bureau of Commerce cooperates with Qianjiang Customs, actively explores the implementation of the “warehouse-port linkage” model, promotes the cooperation linkage project between Lin ‘an public bonded warehouse and Anji Shanghai Port Terminal, and builds an enterprise import and export service system with regional resources linkage 2..Version 0.
Guide “land to water” to help enterprises reduce costs and improve efficiency. Take advantage of Anji Port’s back to Shanghai Port, actively guide Lin ‘an and its surrounding import and export enterprises to sign Anji Port directly. Through the combined transport of “land to water”, the land route between Shanghai Port and Lin ‘an will be changed to “waterway route between Shanghai Port and Anji Port+land route between Anji Port and Lin ‘an”, which will shorten the journey by two hours. At the same time, the trunk shipping company will give full play to the freight support policy for Anji Port and greatly save the comprehensive cost of logistics and customs clearance.
For example, Zhejiang Dongfang Group Supply Chain Management Co., Ltd. can save 300 yuan’s transportation fee by adopting the “warehouse-port linkage” mode. Since June, the company has imported 18 containers, and enterprises will continue to import goods through this mode in the future. Rationally “integrate resources”, solve the problem of “one container is hard to find”, rationally plan the reserved space of positions, directly apply the export business to Anji Port’s water export mode after unpacking the import business, and improve the utilization efficiency of containers.
At the same time, export production enterprises are encouraged to send the goods to the bonded warehouse in a centralized way through “the goods are collected in the warehouse”, and the exported goods are uniformly packed by the bonded warehouse and then transported to the port of Anji for export by water. The Lin ‘an bonded warehouse will be built into a container exchange point and a sub-storage yard of Anji Port in Lin ‘an, and the extension service of Anji Port will be gradually cultivated to solve the problem of difficulty in using containers for export enterprises. Everbright Pute and other enterprises said that they would give full play to the function of container exchange in public bonded warehouses in our region, thus bringing more convenience to enterprises. Actively “expand functions” and upgrade the comprehensive foreign trade service platform. Relying on Lin ‘an public bonded warehouse, we will strengthen cooperation with COSCO Shipping and Zhonggu Shipping by implementing the new mode of “linkage between warehouses and ports” and build a logistics chain linked with regional resources, thus creating a new platform for comprehensive foreign trade services.
At the same time, give full play to the warehousing function of bonded warehouses and their radiation to the surrounding areas, expand the services of customs declaration, tax relief, inspection and quarantine, logistics and transportation for import and export enterprises, and build them into a comprehensive service window for import and export business in the whole region and even the surrounding areas, so as to promote the high-quality development of foreign trade.
Up to now, the transaction volume of public bonded warehouses in Lin ‘an exceeds 10 million US dollars. Among them, since Zhejiang Dongfang Group Supply Chain Management Co., Ltd. started the first business of “warehouse-port linkage” on May 24 this year, six enterprises have conducted business through the “warehouse-port linkage” mode, and the main products include pulp, photovoltaic materials, 3D printing materials and health care products.
In the next step, the Bureau of Commerce of Lin ‘an District will continue to implement the strategic cooperation between bonded warehouses and Anji Port, improve the cargo transportation efficiency of import and export enterprises in the whole region, reduce logistics costs, and continuously optimize the foreign trade development environment in the whole region.
