In 2023, China continuously improved the overall performance of infrastructure facilities in the courier industry. The use of high-capacity cargo vehicles and the opening of several international air routes boosted the capability to handle parcels.

By 2023, China had built 1,267 county-level delivery and distribution centers, 289,000 village-level integrated delivery logistics service stations, and 190,000 village mail stations. In terms of the global development of the courier sector, China will upgrade a batch of international postal delivery centers. So far, a total of 312 overseas distribution centers and over 300 overseas warehouses have been established to promote the courier industry's expansion internationally. |
