From Thai durians to Ningxia goji berry juice , a new trade superhighway is shaking up global logistics! The New International Land-Sea Trade Corridor now links 523 ports across 124 countries and regions – think of it as the ‘Silk Road 2.0’ for Gen Z.
Launched in 2017 with 30,000+ China-Europe freight trains chugging along its routes , this corridor has turbocharged trade between western China and ASEAN nations. Chongqing’s annual freight volume grew by over 50% in 2019 alone – and the momentum hasn’t stopped!
What’s moving? From EV components to Guizhou tea leaves , product diversity exploded from 80 to 1,150 types. Bonus: Southeast Asian goodies like Vietnamese basa fish now reach Chinese dinner tables 3 days faster thanks to synchronized rail-sea routes.
Western China’s entrepreneurs are winning big too. Local NEV brands are building factories in Thailand , while Chongqing oranges and Ningxia wines become global pantry staples. ‘This corridor isn’t just about goods – it’s creating cross-border TikTok trends,’ says a logistics coordinator.
With a near 50-50 split between imports and exports, this network is rewriting Asia’s economic playbook. One question remains: What’ll pop up next on your local shelves thanks to this mega-corridor?
