From June 8 to 10, 2010, the 4th Asia Logistics biennial held in Shanghai New International Expo Center successfully attracted 13500 visitors from 67 countries and regions. Compared with the previous exhibition, the growth rate is 20%.
Representatives from the logistics industry and government fully reflected the high standard and high level of the exhibition: "since 2004, Munich Asia Logistics Biennale has become an influential event in the logistics industry. In order to promote the development of the logistics industry, it has played a good role in strengthening international cooperation among the logistics industry. " Mr. Qian Yongchang, President of China Transportation Association, commented.
Mr. Andreas Scheuer, Deputy Minister of transport, architecture and urban development of Germany, stressed at the opening ceremony that "the Asia Logistics biennial has played a very important role in promoting the freight transport process between China and Germany, which helps to strengthen the increasingly close cooperation between China and Germany."
441 exhibitors from 42 countries and regions demonstrated their latest, fastest, safest and most flexible cargo transportation solutions at the 15000 square meter exhibition site of Shanghai New International Expo Center. Compared with 431 exhibitors in the last exhibition, the scale of exhibitors in 2010 still maintained a small growth, even in the overall downturn of the logistics industry last year. Mr. Cai Chengyu, President of huashangzongheng Logistics Investment Co., Ltd., thinks: "the exhibition is well organized, and there are breakthroughs in terms of the level of exhibitors compared with previous sessions. There are many overseas enterprises participating in the exhibition, with a high scale and level. At the same time, many new domestic enterprises, such as Air China, are attracted to participate in the exhibition. The effect is very positive. The financial crisis has some impact on the logistics industry, but from the perspective of exhibitors at this exhibition, the industry is also recovering. "
During the exhibition, eight national pavilions of Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, Latvia, Netherlands, Spain and Russia also competed to appear at the scene. Mr. Bruno Le gurun, China regional manager of Le Havre port, pointed out: "in many exhibitions in China, we only choose to attend the Asia Logistics Biennale, because China is our primary market, we must come."
The exhibitors were also impressed by the high-quality domestic and international visitors. "Asia Logistics Biennale has become the top efficient platform for the business network of the international logistics industry. The quality of the visitors at the show is very high. " Mr. Markus Muecke, senior vice president, commercial air transportation manager, headquarters of Pan Asian Pana international transportation agency (holding) Co., Ltd., commented. Juan Manuel Gonzales, managing director of Hapag Lloyd (Asia), added: "the success of the show reflects the booming Chinese market. It provides a good opportunity for people in the industry to meet directly with industry giants. "
During the same period, China air cargo Expo attracted more than 50 leading airlines, logistics centers and aircraft manufacturers to participate. The China air cargo forum held on site also provides a high-quality platform for the industry to exchange the development trend of air cargo, especially for the rapidly growing Asian market.
During the three-day exhibition, a series of high-quality forums and seminars were held, covering green logistics, container transportation security, new information technology and China's market environment. "Asia Logistics Biennale has become a venue for information exchange and meeting with partners in Asia and even in the international logistics industry." Said Luo Renjie, senior vice president of Asia Pacific region of Desun freight forwarding Co., Ltd.
