Large transport refers to the transport weight of more3tons or volume over18Logistics services for cubic meters of goods usually involve a combination of multiple modes of transportation, such as road, rail, waterway and air. Large-scale transportation has the characteristics of high transportation difficulty, high safety risk and high service requirements, which is an important segment of the logistics industry.

According to data from the Champ Consulting Group,2022The size of China's large-scale transportation market reached1.2Trillion yuan, year-on-year growth8.6%。2023Throughout the year, the size of China's large-scale shipping market is expected to reach1.3Trillion yuan, year-on-year growth7.5%. The growth of China's large-scale transportation market demand is mainly affected by the following aspects:

First, there is a strong demand for infrastructure construction."Fourteen five"Modern Logistics Development PlanningIt is proposed to speed up the construction of a modern logistics system and promote the formation of a standardized, efficient, fair competition, unified and open logistics market. To this end, the state will increase investment and construction in transportation infrastructure, logistics hubs, cold chain logistics and other fields to promote efficient connectivity of logistics networks. This will drive a large number of bridges, tunnels, pipelines and other large-scale projects, thereby increasing the demand for large-scale transportation.

Second, the construction machinery industry maintained steady growth. Construction machinery is one of the main customers of large-scale transportation, and its market demand directly affects the development of large-scale transportation.According to Huaxin Consulting data, 2022Year，Sales of China's construction machinery manufacturing industry have increased, reaching nearly5000Billion yuan, up year-on-year2.9%。2023With the economic recovery at home and abroad and the advancement of infrastructure construction, the construction machinery industry will continue to maintain stable growth and provide stable market support for large-scale transportation.

Three is the rapid development of new energy automotive industry. New energy vehicles are one of the national strategic emerging industries and one of the important customers of large-scale transportation.According to data from the Champ Consulting Group,2022In 2010, China's new energy vehicle market showed explosive growth, with more700Ten thousand vehicles, nearly double the previous year. Among them, pure electric vehicles occupy the main share, and the number of pure electric vehicles produced and sold is546.7million and536.5Ten thousand vehicles, up year on year83.4%and81.6%. Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles also have a rapid growth. The number of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles produced and sold is151.8million and151.2Ten thousand vehicles, up year on year1.5times and1.4Times.2023Under the dual drive of national policy support and consumer recognition, the new energy automobile industry will maintain a high-speed development momentum and bring more opportunities for large-scale transportation.

Fourth, the demand for furniture and home appliances industry is picking up. Furniture and household appliances are one of the traditional customers of large-scale transportation, and their market demand is closely related to the consumption level of residents.2022Affected by the outbreak, the demand for furniture and home appliances industry has been affected to a certain extent. However, with the steady progress of epidemic prevention and control and economic recovery, demand in the furniture and home appliance industry is gradually picking up.2023With the improvement of residents' income level and the upgrading of consumption structure, the demand of furniture and household appliances industry will further increase, creating more market space for large-scale transportation.

Although China's large-scale transportation market demand has maintained a growth trend, the large-scale transportation industry is also facing some challenges and difficulties, mainly in the following aspects:

First, the pressure of rising costs has increased. Large-scale transportation involves a combination of various modes of transportation, and its cost is affected by various factors such as oil price, labor, equipment, taxes and fees. In recent years, due to the fluctuation of international oil prices, the tightening of environmental protection policies, the shortage of human resources and other reasons, the cost of large-scale transportation has been rising, which has caused certain pressure on the profit margin of the industry.

Second, security risks are difficult to eliminate. Due to the characteristics of large weight, large volume and complex shape, there is a high safety risk in the process of transportation. Once an accident occurs, it will not only cause loss of goods and customer complaints, but also cause traffic congestion and negative impact on public opinion. Therefore, large transport needs to strengthen safety management and risk prevention, improve emergency response capacity.

Third, environmental pressure is increasing. Large-scale transportation mainly depends on road transportation, which causes serious pollution to the environment. As the country pays more and more attention to environmental protection, large-scale transportation needs to comply with more stringent environmental protection standards and norms, and accelerate the transformation and upgrading of energy conservation, emission reduction and green logistics.

In order to cope with the above challenges and difficulties, China's large-scale transportation industry needs to accelerate technological innovation, improve service quality, optimize operation management, and strengthen industry standards. Specifically, we can start from the following aspects:

The first is to accelerate digital transformation and improve the level of intelligence. Use new technologies such as the Internet, Internet of Things, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence to realize cargo informatization, networking, visualization and intelligent management, improve cargo tracking and scheduling efficiency, and reduce human errors and safety hazards. At the same time, big data analysis and prediction technology are used to optimize supply matching and route planning, and improve vehicle loading rate and operational efficiency.

The second is to strengthen the coordination of multimodal transport and enhance the comprehensive service capacity. Give full play to the advantages and characteristics of various modes of transport, build a multimodal transport network system such as roads, railways, waterways and aviation, and realize the seamless connection and rapid conversion of goods between different modes of transport. At the same time, strengthen cooperation and coordination with various logistics companies to provide one-stop integrated logistics service solutions to meet the individual needs of customers.

The third is to enhance the degree of standardization and improve the quality of service. Promote the improvement of standards and specifications for packaging, loading and unloading, fixing and inspection of goods to improve the safety and integrity of goods. Promote the improvement of standards and specifications for cargo transportation, warehousing, and distribution, and improve service timeliness and reliability. Promote the improvement of standard procedures for the measurement, billing and settlement of goods, and improve the transparency and fairness of services.

Fourth, strengthen industry self-discipline and supervision, improve industry standardization. Promote the establishment of industry associations and organizations, strengthen communication and collaboration within the industry, and maintain the legitimate rights and interests of the industry and a good image. Promote the establishment of industry credit system and evaluation system, strengthen the supervision and evaluation of the industry, and punish the illegal and bad behavior of the industry.

Anyway,2023The market demand of China's large-scale transportation industry will continue to grow, but it also faces some challenges and difficulties. Shangpu Consulting believes that the large-scale transportation industry needs to accelerate technological innovation, improve service quality, optimize operation management, and strengthen industry standards to adapt to market changes and customer needs, and enhance industry competitiveness and development potential.
