China Express Association recently released a news that 2010 China Express daily business volume exceeded 10 million, successfully ranked among the list of the world's three. But the volume of business and the sharp rise in profits can not conceal the express industry face many problems: the frequent "burst warehouse", express company felt the "pain".

Recently, "Daily economic news" When the reporter found that a copy from Shenzhen Fuyong to Futian City Express, unexpectedly took two days to arrive, than weekdays spent more than one time. A Shenzhen Taobao shopkeeper also told reporters, "a few days ago from Shenzhen sent an express to Dongguan, the result was one weeks before." "The shopkeeper revealed that each end of the shipment will be more than 1/3 more than usual, some express company inventory space and staff are not enough, express backlog caused delivery delay." Express "Fly" does not rise, by netizens jokingly called "Snail Pass".

Following the loss of pieces, destroy pieces, after the switch, send a delay in the express company's complaints occupy an increasing proportion, but the express company also has unspeakable pain.

China's express industry has not yet attracted the attention of the national level, in the capital investment and talent reserves can not fully adapt to market demand, once the number of online shopping fluctuations, express company almost difficult to parry. On the other hand, when do businesses launch promotional campaigns, and how long will they last? These are uncertain factors, which also to express the company's plans and related preparations to bring some difficulties. The frequent emergence of the "burst warehouse" problem, there is no effective solution, China's express market officially opened only a few years, there are many problems, which remains to be in the industry to mature process step by step to solve.
