CIC Consultant: Electric dealers and courier Blind Cross border is not conducive to industry development

A few days ago, Shen Tong Express and Jingdong Mall staged a "break up" play, Shen Express announced the suspension of Jingdong mall Third-party platform merchants to its distribution center Express. This matter again caused the contradiction between the electric business and Express, Lenovo to a few days ago, where the customer of its express brand "such as wind Tatsu" carried out a big thin body, the same period, Shen Tong's "Love to Buy Network Super" opened two months after the forced closure.

In recent years, traditional Express and E-commerce market competition has become increasingly fierce, express and electric dealers in speeding up to the other side of the business sector infiltration of the pace, in the end what is the reason for such a result? Gao Boxuan, a senior researcher at CIC, said there are two main reasons for the Cross-border competition between Electric and courier: On the one hand, e-commerce and express industry are the fastest growing industry in recent years, its market development space is abundant, the development prospect is considerable, and the electric Business Express is seeing each other industry to have the profiteering space, Want to share a slice of each other. On the other hand, this also shows that the development of the two industries are not standardized, the industry entry threshold is low, so that "others" easily enter the threshold.

Gao Boxuan also pointed out that the electrical business and express Cross-border competition will not bring good results to each other, can only bury the development of hidden dangers to both sides is a loss. On the one hand, cross-border competition increases the risk of the enterprise's own main business. As far as the current situation, whether it is the electric or courier enterprises of its own limited size, involved in another industry will inevitably need to occupy a large number of funds and personnel, these will increase the experience of the main business risk. On the other hand, cross-border competition affects the overall operational efficiency of the enterprise. Whether it is management experience or the accumulation of operational capacity is not an overnight, these are enterprises in a short period of time can not be copied, the need for long-term investment in enterprises more resources, this will affect the operational efficiency of enterprises.

CIC Consultant Research Director Zhang Yanlin pointed out that, although the current China's electrical business and express rapid development, but are still in the primary stage of development, industry development is extremely immature. In this case, the electrical business and Courier blind Cross-border to a certain extent is not conducive to the development of the industry, and its cross-border struggle, rather than spend time and energy through cooperation to promote the better development of each other's industry. The two sides should be based on the concept of strategic partners, in the long-term overall interest to reach a consensus, to build a platform conducive to the cooperation between the two sides to promote cooperation between the two sides.
