example

For example, there is a clothing company in Italy, which has 5000 stores in 60 countries and sells about 50 million pieces of clothing every year. Headquartered in Italy, all work is done through 80 agents. If a franchised store finds that a certain style of clothing needs replenishment, it will immediately notify a designated agent, and the agent will immediately inform the Italian headquarters of this information. The headquarters will then feed back this information to the international express distribution center, and the distribution center will pack, assemble and deliver the goods within a certain period of time according to the needs of the franchised store. The whole express delivery process can be completed in one week.

Transport characteristics

International express transportation is the transportation between countries and regions. Compared with domestic freight transportation, it has the following main characteristics:

（1） International express transportation involves international relations, which is a foreign-related activity with strong policy. International express transportation is an integral part of international trade. In the process of organizing goods transportation, it often needs to have direct or indirect extensive business contact with foreign countries. This kind of contact is not only economic, but also often involves international political issues. It is a foreign-related activity with strong policy. Therefore, international express transportation is not only an economic activity, but also an important foreign affairs activity, which requires us not only to deal with various businesses from an economic point of view, but also to have a policy concept and engage in international transportation business according to the requirements of China's foreign policy.

（2） International express transportation is a long-distance transportation with many intermediate links. International express transportation is the transportation between countries, countries and regions. Generally speaking, the distance of transportation is relatively long. It often needs to use a variety of means of transportation. Through multiple loading and unloading, it has to go through many intermediate links, such as transshipment, changing the mode of transportation, etc. through different regions and countries, it needs to adapt to different laws and regulations of various countries. If there is a problem in any of these links, it will affect the whole transportation process, which requires us to do a good job in organization and link closely, so as to avoid disjointed phenomenon in a certain link and bring losses to transportation.

（3） International express transportation involves a wide range, and the situation is complex and changeable. International express transportation involves many departments at home and abroad, and needs to deal with cargo owners, transportation, commodity inspection agencies, insurance companies, banks or other financial institutions, customs, ports and various intermediary agents in different countries and regions. At the same time, due to the different laws and policies of various countries and regions, different trade and transportation habits and business practices, differences in financial and monetary systems, and changes in political, economic and natural conditions, international express transportation will have a greater impact.

（4） International express transportation has a strong timeliness. Timely shipment of import and export goods and timely delivery of the goods to the destination are of great significance to fulfill the import and export trade contracts, meet the needs of the commodity competitive market, improve the market competitiveness and settle foreign exchange in time. In particular, some fresh commodities, seasonal commodities and highly sensitive commodities require rapid transportation and timely organization of supply. Only in this way can the competitiveness of export commodities be improved and the sales market be consolidated and expanded. Therefore, the international express transportation must strengthen the concept of time, fight for time and speed, and win by speed.

（5） The risk of international express transportation is large. Due to many links, long transportation distance, wide range, complex and changeable situation, and strong timeliness, changes in the international situation, social unrest, various natural disasters and accidents, as well as war, blockade and embargo or piracy activities along the transportation route may directly or indirectly affect the international express transportation, resulting in serious losses Therefore, the risk of international express transportation is greater.
