Durian lovers, rejoice! ๐ The “king of fruits” now zips from Southeast Asian farms to Beijing supermarkets in record time, thanks to the China-Vietnam Railway Express zooming daily out of Nanning International Railway Port. This southern Chinese logistics hub is rewriting the rules of regional tradeโand your snack game just got an upgrade. ๐โจ
Imagine: Tens of thousands of cargo containers daily funnel through this gateway, part of China’s New Western Land-Sea Corridor. From electronics to exotic fruits, the port handles 366 types of goods on the China-Vietnam route alone. By 2025? Expect over 300,000 freight trips annually, moving enough containers to circle the Earth twice! ๐๐ฆ
But this isn’t just about faster durians. As a linchpin in China’s Belt and Road Initiative, Nanning connects 10 ASEAN countries to global markets while fueling China’s ‘dual circulation’ economic strategy. Translation: smoother imports for Chinese consumers and turbocharged exports for manufacturers. ๐
Pro tip for entrepreneurs: Watch this space. With ASEAN-China trade hitting $911 billion in 2022, Nanning’s rails are your new roadmap to Asia’s hottest markets. ๐
