CHONGQING, July 10 (Xinhua) — An express train loaded with telecommunications equipment, auto parts and other goods departed from the southwest Chinese metropolis of Chongqing on the China-Europe international rail freight route at around 12 p.m. on Wednesday, marking the start of regular freight express service on the route.
The new services are said to be a new logistics product jointly developed by Chongqing-based supply chain management company Yuxinou and Turkish company Pacific Global Logistics.
The train will cross the border at the Khorgos checkpoint in Northwest China's Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, pass through Azerbaijan and Georgia, and eventually reach Turkey and then European cities.
Regular operation of such an express will reduce the time for delivery of goods from Chongqing to Europe via the Middle Corridor /Trans-Caspian International Transport Route/ to 25-30 days, which is at least ten days faster than the traditional method, said the chairman of the board of the above-mentioned Turkish company, Askar Sadik.
On the same day, a project was also signed to transform Chongqing into an international procurement hub along the Middle Corridor, establish a cooperation network for enterprises in the fields of trade, industrial chains and supply chains in Eurasia, and establish a mechanism for their regular dialogue. -0-
