How does a logistics company open a new route

Preliminary preparation, market research:
  1. Supply situation: The supply situation at both ends of this line should be understood. What kind of supply sources does Guangzhou have, and which cities around Guangzhou can radiate to? What kind of central role can it play? The same is true for Huzhou. Large cities generally do not need to consider the volume of goods, but the layout of business outlets must be considered, and which places must be examined as industrial-intensive areas? How does the vehicle run? How to radiate surrounding cities?
  2. Competitor research: find out who the competitors of this route have, what are their advantages, how to arrange outlets and design products in a targeted manner, and how to market them? Refer to the opponent's strengths and discard the undesirable ones.
  3. The logistics environment: transportation, vehicles, national documents, urban logistics planning, etc.
  How to run:
  How to operate the one-way line? Undoubtedly, the one-way operation is subject to the rental car. When should I rent a car, when to share a car, and when to start by myself? How and when does the round trip run? It is impossible to run a certain line without losing money in the early stage. How to reduce the number of losses is a problem that operators need to consider.
  When will I walk by myself? This question should be thought of when you decide to open this route. If the average daily cargo volume is not enough for one car in a month, and there is not enough car for a long time, I think this kind of situation can be shared with other people's cargo. At least it can guarantee the timeliness of delivery.
  What products do you plan to open? Now the general line will launch the express line and the ordinary line. Ordinary line is probably the kind that allows customers to accept the kind of goods that can only be used! Some companies launched the two as soon as they opened a certain line, but they often arrived late for the customer's goods when they were actually shipped. The purpose of citing this example is to say: Only by operating in good faith can obtain the trust of customers. Any line just runs has its shortcomings. Drivers are unfamiliar with the road shape, long driving time, delayed delivery, etc. are common. Only when ordinary lines are operated to mature can the daily departures be launched on time. This is even more important for a logistics company with a certain scale.
