China is entering a new phase . . . it has become the world's factory. The country is to the new millennium what England was to the 19th century. China is rapidly becoming a region that
produces high quality components and finished vehicles for the automotive industry and is increasing exports of high quality products to the rest of the world.
The challenge - creating automotive logistics networks in China
The lack of infrastructure in the logistics sector makes China a difficult market to break. However, with these problems being addressed on national and regional levels, increasing
opportunities exist for a network of logistics hubs in China - opportunities for both local and global logistics providers. With current industry players struggling to meet the demands
of this frenetically expanding industry, China holds vast economic potential for those providers willing to rise to the challenge.
This is your opportunity to develop new business partnerships
Business relationships between manufacturers, suppliers and providers are in the early stages in China and many global companies operating in the region are still at the decision-making
stage. This offers automotive providers lucrative new business opportunities.
