Within the Chongqing Nanpeng Bonded Logistics Center, cross-border road buses are neatly arranged, waiting for customs inspection before heading towards ASEAN countries. Not far away, a batch of Southeast Asian bananas transported by the China Laos Railway are completing the final inspection and quarantine procedures and will soon enter the major supermarkets in Chongqing. Since the first vehicle was launched in 2016, the Western Land Sea New Corridor has gone through a decade of development. In the first two months of 2026, this logistics artery connecting western China with the world has delivered an impressive report.

Cross border shuttle bus cargo value increases by over 80%

In the first two months of 2026, the cross-border highway shuttle bus value of the Western Land Sea New Corridor reached over 2 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of over 80%. From over a hundred trips in 2016 to over ten thousand trips today, the category of goods has evolved from ordinary machinery to over 500 types including automotive and motorcycle parts, electronic products, raw materials, daily necessities, fruits, and more. The vitality of the transportation channels continues to burst forth.

Innovating regulatory models to reduce costs and increase efficiency

Chongqing innovatively implements a bonded logistics center goods classification and supervision model based on their status, enabling domestic and foreign trade goods to be managed together in the same warehouse, significantly reducing storage and operating costs for enterprises. At the same time, the new mode of inspection and quarantine at the designated place is adopted for the first time for the import of bananas by the China Laos Railway. A box of goods starts from Laos to Chongqing to complete the inspection, reducing the loading and unloading links, improving the quality of fruits, and enabling people to buy fresh and cheap imported fruits.

Connected to over 580 ports worldwide

The Western Land Sea New Corridor has formed an open pattern covering railways, highways, waterways, and air transportation, which can reach more than 580 ports in over 120 countries and regions around the world. The channel connects various transportation modes such as the China Europe freight train and the Yangtze River Golden Waterway, promoting the deep integration of western industries such as automobiles, electronic information, and new materials into the global industrial chain, and enabling inland areas that do not rely on the sea or borders to steadily move towards the world.Editor/Gao Xue
