Yiwugo.com to launch logistics platform to support online international trade

Through this platform, Yiwugo.com, the official website of the Yiwu Commodity Market, will offer its suppliers access to one-stop cross-border express delivery, cross-border logistics, and overseas warehousing services at a favourable price and will facilitate their international trade through e-channels.

The Yiwu Commodity Market, the commodity export base in China, has sold products to 219 countries and regions of the world. Its exports in the past two and three decades were dominated by large-batch shipments going around the globe in containers and other big carriers.

Such cross-border movement made third-party foreign trade companies an essential middleman to communicate with foreign buyers and clear customs declaration, logistics and other procedures on behalf of the suppliers. Now, the commodity information exchange has become transparent and is travelling faster than before, thanks to the burgeoning trends in the e-business in recent years.

As a result, the overseas purchasers have established direct contact with suppliers via Yiwugo.com, leading to an increase in faster and smaller shipments.

The International Integrated Logistics Platform will support online international trades in several ways. Firstly, after submitting a consignment request via the system, the supplier will enjoy one-stop services, all the way from pick-up, customs declaration, shipping to delivery to international buyers. Secondly, goods are dispatched by the platform, on which all logistic service providers have undergone the process of risk control and screening. In addition to cargo tracking, there is a cargo compensation scheme in place, where a compensation will be made in case any problems concerning cargo delivery arise.

The presence of multiple logistics companies on the platform has made cost reduction possible through resource integration. Also, for heavy-cargo transportation, the platform will find competent routes and service providers with optimal shipping and warehousing solutions to save money and time for the suppliers.

The Yiwugo.com International Integrated Logistics Platform has global coverage for express delivery service. The network of heavy-cargo transportation extends mainly across Kazakhstan and Russia, but will further expand in the future.
