Cold chain supply-side reform is the right time

Central Economic Work Conference comes to the supply-side reforms to force the five angles, including the capacity to destocking, deleveraging, lower costs, make a short board. Development situation of the cold chain industry, the supply-side structural reforms is the right time. The focus, nothing less than three directions.
First, make a short board.
While China's cold chain market has reached 112 million tons, but still a big gap compared with developed countries: 2014 country road refrigerated trucks to maintain capacity of 76,000, the United States is 250,000, Japan is 150,000. China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing, Vice President Cai said: China's overall cold chain circulation rates of less than 20%, while the United States and Japan, respectively 90% and 98%. Aucma (5.770, 0.05, 0.87%) Co., Ltd., Li Wei also said that the cold chain is limited by the lack of capacity, the electricity supplier requires fresh cold chain products more than 50%, but only 10% actually use cold chain, "a foam box + ice" is the last resort expedient.
Cold chain supply-side reform is the right time
Rental from cold storage to refrigerated trucks, cold storage truck purchase, to the labor costs of cold storage, cold chain are basically part of the cost several times more than ordinary logistics and distribution. An incomplete statistics, in 2014 China 4000 Yu Jiasheng fresh electricity providers only 1% profit, mainly due to the loss of most fresh self-built electric chain logistics cost by increased sharply, the country has not a complete fresh stream all aspects of the distribution system, packaging, warehousing and distribution, not yet open, short, cold chain is still short board of fresh logistics.
The second is to inventory.
Cold chain industry to the inventory on the premise that to improve the turnover rate of cold storage, cold chain transport and it is proportional, with a storage capacity of 10,000 tons of cold storage as an example: cold storage utilization rate of 80% turnover rate of 2, traffic is 16,000 tons / year; when the turnover rate increased to 6, the transport volume amounted to 48,000 tons / year. Enterprises can use means of information, timely access to goods inventory and sales data, accurate forecasting of market demand, provide an effective basis for the procurement and inventory management, to improve warehousing turnover rate.
The final step is to reduce costs, which is a top priority. Currently, general warehouse, costing about 400 yuan / square meters, is equipped with cold storage will have thermal insulation system, the cost of up to at least 2,000 yuan / square meters, cold storage and take high electricity, cold month of electricity at least 10,000 square meters to 20 million. For now, the cost of funds invested heavily in the construction of cold storage, to build a medium-sized refrigerator would have cost more than 20 million yuan. Because of the high input costs, cold chain logistics and transport costs have been kept high threshold price, higher than the average 40 - 60%, transport vehicles, most small and medium enterprises because of high transport costs, or choose regular logistics transport. Cold chain industry is in a period of development, from the entire society in terms of social infrastructure, including enterprise investment are increasing. For the cold chain industry, the cost is actually stable and reduce costs, upstream and downstream suppliers and customers to each other, to the healthy development of the industry, able to negotiate the cost of a stable or relatively stable price has been very good to each other .
