The development trend of international freight forwarding

The current and future development trends of international freight are gradually decreasing. Container shipping technology such as shipping containers, cargo ships, and shipping container ports has improved the efficiency and safety factor of the transportation of small products. In addition to reducing costs, the level of logistics and distribution services has improved to a new level.

In order to further develop foreign markets and provide more comprehensive service items for international customers, international cargo shippers have developed and designed international modern logistics service items to show customers a one-stop service consisting of multiple international freight forwarders and various transportation vehicles. .

The 1980s was a critical period for the scientific research and practical activities of international freight as a separate management method industry. In addition to the means of transportation, international freight is concerned with new manufacturing methods, electronic information technology, automated control, and new communication network methods.

Except for the well-known and relatively developed bourgeois countries such as the United Kingdom and the United States, the economic development of countries such as France and Japan has developed rapidly and steadily. Import and export trade and project investment have entered a stage of rapid growth.

The rise of France and Japan has clearly challenged the economic development and development models of European and American countries. The lean production management method of "small batch production and multiple types" rivals the "standardized and large-scale" production mode, and presents a humane approach for customers. service items.

In order to solve the new production and operation mode of logistics information technology, management methods such as appropriate systems have emerged. The technical development trend of electronic data exchange has improved the high efficiency of logistics details transmission, reduced the cost of information management, and demonstrated the technical basis for building a worldwide management information system.

The development trend of electronic information technology and automation control has promoted the development trend of automation technology in freight logistics work. Automatic warehouses, automated technology port machinery and other equipment have greatly improved the efficiency of freight logistics work, improved work safety, and reduced work The cost of fees.

From the 1990s to the present, the global economic integration has entered a new stage. The fortresses of global trade and project investment have continued to decrease. The development trend of regional economic integration has been rapid. The economic development influence of countries in the development trend has continued to increase, and the global New changes have taken place in the economic layout.

The improvement of information technology and Internet technology has shown service support for international freight, and international freight has entered the information age. The change in the global economic layout has brought about a change in international freight transportation. The freight logistics among the more developed countries has migrated to more developed countries and developing countries.

Originally, the freight logistics between the world moved to the countries in the region. The reduction of the fortress of foreign direct investment in opening up to the outside world has promoted the division of responsibilities in the international industrial chain. The world's processing and manufacturing industries are competing to migrate to developing countries, as detailed in the guide examples.

The scale of industrial chain cooperative operations in the world has expanded. Except for the freight and logistics of inventory goods, the total flow of intermediate goods has also increased rapidly. Lean production management, smart manufacturing, virtual manufacturing and other new manufacturing organization methods have clearly put forward higher requirements for international freight.
