Impressive data demonstrates the rapid development of the Shijiazhuang International Dry Port in Gaoyi County, Hebei Province. From four trains in 2018 to 1,282 trains in 2025, the number of China-Europe freight trains departing from the port has grown from single digits to four digits. Currently, the Shijiazhuang International Dry Port serves 18 stable international routes, covering over 50 countries and regions.

The smooth operation of the logistics artery stimulates the development of local industry, facilitating the entry of "Made in Hebei" products into the global market. Liu Yinpeng, general manager of Hebei International Land Port Co., Ltd., explained that the company has established logistics hubs directly at the doorstep of industrial clusters. Cross-border warehouses have already been opened in several counties in Hebei Province, home to specialized industrial clusters, offering a full range of services—from space reservation and cargo consolidation to warehousing and customs clearance. This allows for a "cargo collection in the county, shipment from the dry port, and access to global markets" scheme.

"The cross-border warehouse model has not only helped us improve efficiency but also reduced export costs," said Wang Bailin, general manager of Hebei Fulande Industrial Co., Ltd. He noted that seamless logistics has strengthened the company's confidence in expanding into overseas markets.
