Since 2026, China's logistics industry has continuously increased its investment in digital research and development, accelerated the implementation of intelligent scenarios, and promoted the improvement of quality, efficiency, and service upgrades in the logistics industry.

In the cold storage of Shenzhen Port Logistics Group, a batch of domestically pioneered cold and hot shuttle unmanned forklifts are carrying out orderly loading and unloading operations in an environment with a temperature difference of nearly 50 degrees Celsius. This not only solves the pain points of work under extreme cold conditions, but also improves efficiency by about 40%.

The improvement of efficiency comes from the investment in research and development. According to research data from the China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing, the digital transformation investment of key logistics enterprises increased by nearly 30% year-on-year in the first seven months of this year. In the warehousing process, intelligent three-dimensional warehouses and logistics robots are widely used, greatly improving operational efficiency through intelligent picking systems. Accelerate the digital transformation of national logistics hubs and backbone cold chain logistics bases, and promote the interconnection of logistics networks. At the same time, the depth of digital collaboration in the logistics industry continues to expand. By digitizing and breaking down information barriers, a single waybill can be used to coordinate the entire process, making multimodal transportation more efficient.

At present, the top logistics companies have implemented over 1000 AI intelligent agent application scenarios. Relying on intelligent scheduling and demand forecasting, some logistics enterprises have achieved hourly response in factory side distribution and line side replenishment within industrial clusters, accurately matching the production pace of high-tech manufacturing and ensuring efficient operation of the industrial chain.Editor/Gong Ziwei
