NINGBO, China, March 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- For many people, the city of Ningbo may not sound as well-known as metropolis such as Beijing and Shanghai in China, but it may be closer to the daily life: the Chinese-made hardware tools, rice cookers and even new energy vehicles people bought are very likely to travel across the ocean from this Chinese city in east China's Zhejiang Province. The high probability of this trade link comes from Ningbo's unique port status, according to Information Office of Municipal Government of Ningbo. In the Ningbo-Zhoushan Port which faces the East China Sea, ships with a maximum carrying weight of 300,000 tonnes can come and go freely, and super ships with a maximum carrying weight above 400,000 tonnes can enter and exit with the tide. It is a rare outstanding deep-water port in the world. Last year, the throughput of the port reached 1.324 billion tonnes, ranking first in the world for 15 consecutive years, and its container throughput ranked third worldwide. It's also home to the largest iron ore terminal in China, the largest crude oil terminal in Asia and the second largest single container terminal on earth. Ningbo has been an important trading center since ancient times. As early as the Tang Dynasty, Ningbo was one of the starting points of the Maritime Silk Road. In modern times, Ningbo was one of the five treaty ports open to foreign trade. After 1978, Ningbo was among the country's first coastal cities to embrace the country's reform and opening-up campaign. Today, Ningbo is connected with more than 60 Chinese cities through sea-rail intermodal transport, and has access to more than 600 ports in over 200 countries and regions with the help of 300-plus container routes. It has become an important port and shipping logistics center, strategic resource allocation hub and modern shipping service base in the world. In late 2023, Ningbo was approved to extend the opening up to all its eight port areas, adding new momentum to the Ningbo-Zhoushan Port's sprint to be a world-class top port. Unique port resources endow Ningbo with prowess to connect with the rest of the world, but the city's opening-up and enterprising moves not only target improving the throughput capacity of the world's largest port, but also seeking wider connectivity, deeper-level exchanges and higher-level opening-up. Now Ningbo is building a world-class air-rail integration hub and a new engine of international open development by further optimizing the transport planning of its western region. It is estimated that in 2050, the passenger transport capacity of Ningbo's west transport hub will reach about 220 million passengers per year, and the air cargo volume will reach 3 million tonnes annually, which will help Ningbo become a modern coastal metropolis. Among the international destinations accessible to Ningbo, the Central and Eastern European countries (CEEC) along the Belt and Road Initiative are the bright spots for deepening global economic cooperation and trade exchanges. Ningbo started to hold exhibitions to promote trade with the CEEC in 2014, and established the first and only demonstration zone for economic cooperation and trade exchanges between China and CEEC in 2017. In 2019, the China-CEEC Expo was upgraded to a national-level international event. Thanks to a good business environment, a strong digital economy foundation and a unique port logistics hub system, Ningbo's cross-border e-commerce has seen fast growth, with an increasingly wider and denser digital trade network. Ningbo has maintained the first place in the country's cross-border e-commerce retail imports during China's largest online shopping festival "Double 11" for seven consecutive years. The city's online purchase bonded business in cross-border e-commerce accounts for nearly a quarter of the Chinese market, and its overseas warehouse area accounts for 1/6 of the country's total. In March last year, the first fifth-freedom freight air route in Zhejiang was opened in Ningbo, lending strong steam to the growth of the city's cross-border e-commerce business. In September 2020, the Ningbo Area of Zhejiang Free Trade Pilot Zone was officially listed, opening a new chapter of institutional opening in the city. For example, aiming at the circulation security and data security of international trade of bulk commodities, Ningbo launched the digital service platform "TradeGo" to ensure the uniqueness and authenticity of digital documents through blockchain technology. The platform has become one of the only 10 recognized platforms for electronic bill of lading in the world. The open environment and enterprising culture have not only shaped Ningbo's extensive foreign trade network, but also sharpened the innovation edge of a strong manufacturing city in a global market with open competition. Ningbo has 104 national single-product champion enterprises in the manufacturing industry, the largest number among Chinese cities and far exceeding Shenzhen, which ranks second. Many of their products bring first-class Chinese manufacturing to global consumers via the Ningbo-Zhoushan Port. Looking ahead, Ningbo aims to build an international opening-up hub city. According to Ningbo's plan, by 2026, the Ningbo-Zhoushan Port's cargo throughput is expected to maintain the top spot in the world, and the number of enterprises with an annual trade value of over 10 million U.S. dollars and foreign investment projects with a total investment of more than 100 million U.S. dollars, among others, will double compared with 2021. From a port city to an international hub for trade, Ningbo is set to make its mark on the global map.

DP World now operates 100 branches, launched in the last eight months in a bold move that has expanded its global freight forwarding offer, with significantly more branches to come Over 1,000 jobs created, with more new roles to be added as DP World expands its freight forwarding offering Unique combination of infrastructure ownership and end-to-end services provide customers with more resilience and bespoke solutions for their supply chains DUBAI, UAE, March 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- DP World has inaugurated the latest in a string of more than 100 freight forwarding offices across the world, marking a significant expansion aimed at supporting customers navigating the complexities of global trade. DP World’s freight forwarding service includes global air freight capabilities In response to increasing disruptions to global trade – from climate change, geopolitics and macroeconomic challenges – DP World has embarked on a bold initiative to bolster its commitment to its customers. The offices already employ 1,000 staff, adding to DP World's already 108,000-strong team and this is expected to grow significantly over the next 12 months, helping move more than 10% of global trade every year. Fuelled by global trade disruptions, businesses are now prioritising dynamic strategies to build resilience into their supply chains, according to Economist Impact research1. The traditional asset-light freight forwarding model, which moves cargo via third parties, has proven to be susceptible to disruption at key chokepoints and can have knock-on effects for inventory and fulfilment planning for businesses and their customers. With businesses seeking increased control over their supply chains, DP World's expansion comes at a pivotal time for the global logistics and supply chain industry. By expanding its freight forwarding offering, with a focus on air and ocean freight, DP World will deploy its 'toolbox' of services or capabilities made up of ports, terminals, warehouses, trucks, rail and shipping services to increase control and resilience, supported by proprietary digital technology, whilst also working with complementary partners across the supply chain to boost efficiency. Miami is the latest office to open its doors, as DP World builds on its end-to-end network of high-value port assets and specialist expertise across ports, trucking, air and ocean freight, customs and warehousing services that spans over 430 business units in 86 countries. Beat Simon, Group Chief Commercial Officer, Logistics at DP World, said: "Our expansion in freight forwarding complements our end-to-end supply chain solutions and capabilities. Our asset – appropriate approach is a step-change for the freight forwarding industry that puts customers in the driving seat with more visibility and control and giving them confidence to trade in today's global market. "As we continue to grow our freight forwarding footprint, we are building a network that will cover more than 90% of global trade. We are focused on densifying our network as we build a best-in-class, strong and resilient global capability." The growing service currently spans order and origin management, port handling and freight management for ocean and air, and at-destination services such as customs, drayage, logistics, last-mile delivery, deconsolidation and bonded warehousing services. Additionally, DP World offers a variety of value-add services including embedded trade finance, commodity-specific services, cars in containers, transload and advanced hubs and more. This is all accessed through a single digital window that is backed by an integrated Global Services Centre that centralises back-end processes, made up of over 500 IT specialists. The advanced digital system means customers can track their goods in real time and easily manage their cargo journey. Marco Nazzari, VP Commercial Freight Forwarding at DP World said: "Our freight forwarding service uses our proprietary digital technology solutions to simplify global trade for our customers and give them more control. However, it's not just our digital solutions that offer a next-gen freight forwarding service: our people are foundational to our customers' success. We employ over 1,000 team members and will continue to grow. "Leveraging an asset-appropriate approach, DP World utilises its digital tools, alongside the expertise and local know-how of its team, to make freight forwarding easier and more resilient from end to end." DP World's latest expansion is not only increasing the size of its global logistics team to more than 45,000 employees but also contributes to the company's total global workforce of nearly 110,000 people. These employees are distributed across a diversified portfolio of logistics services spanning: ports and terminals, marine services, and logistics.

The new partnership will see Swissport and CHAMP reimagine air cargo together, further elevating visibility, customer centricity and operational performance. LUXEMBOURG, March 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- After conducting a competitive market assessment, global ground handling giant Swissport have signed as a launch customer of CHAMP Cargosystems' next-generation cargo management solution, Cargospot-neo. As a long-time customer of Cargospot for almost 20 years, this marks an exciting transformation for both businesses. Operating at 286 airports in 44 countries across six continents, Swissport's cargo handling operations will be supported by CHAMP's open, intuitive and flexible Cargospot-neo Handling services. The move also includes three new modules that Swissport and CHAMP will co-create together. Cargospot-neo Handling offers a wide range of automation across the handling processes with in-built Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence (ML/AI), and the most advanced set of mobile applications available, which will allow Swissport to achieve 30% efficiencies in the warehouse. Being part of CHAMP's single neo-platform, Swissport will have seamless access to other CHAMP services such as Traxon Global Customs and Traxon Global Security, providing integrated dashboards with actionable analytics that will enable Swissport to respond even more rapidly to unplanned events. Cargospot-neo Handling is also future-proofed with ONE Record enablement, allowing Swissport to augment its information sharing with CHAMP's large, interconnected airline community who would be leveraging CHAMP's 1Neo-Connect Super Node. Swissport's transformational journey is further enhanced with the inclusion of three modules: Task Manager, Customer Portal and Mobile Service Point. Task Manager: enables a "steering" process, whereby terminal resources can be directed to perform tasks or execute instructions through mobile devices and other means. Customer Portal: builds on the success of the existing Cargospot Portal, introducing zero-touch processes that are specific to cargo terminal operation. Mobile Service Point: functions as a "virtual kiosk" that provides support for customer zero touch processes typically performed at the cargo terminal, without the cost or space requirements of fixed kiosk terminals. With shared values of innovation and collaboration, and a commitment to providing high-quality solutions, Swissport and CHAMP are perfectly aligned to launch Cargospot-neo Handling. Swissport's global cargo handling operations will benefit from digitalized and future-proofed workflows, standardization of processes, increased collaboration, and a simplified IT landscape with global visibility within a single platform, enabling productivity gains, better operational insights and performance and ultimately, an even better customer experience. "At Swissport we are driving an ambitious technology acceleration program and are relentlessly committed to innovation and customer-centric solutions to differentiate ourselves from our competitors," says Dirk Goovaerts, Global Cargo Chair and CEO of Swissport International for the CEMEA region. "While the current data exchange in our air cargo centers relies on messaging, the future holds the potential for dynamic, bi-directional API connections with our customers and partners in the air cargo value chain, marking a significant enhancement in our technological infrastructure." Chris McDermott, CEO of CHAMP Cargosystems, said "The launch of Cargospot-neo presents tremendous opportunities for air cargo operators like Swissport who are looking to deliver a world-class customer experience and work with cutting-edge technologies. We have enjoyed a fruitful 20-year relationship which has enabled us to collaborate on this launch, and we look forward to many more mutually beneficial years to come."
