The Global Logistics Landscape Is Reshaped And Chinese Enterprises Are Facing Challenges

(MENAFN- Market Press Release) May 27, 2025 9:57 pm - This article explores how companies can address risks through logistics diversification, emphasizes the importance of professional freight forwarding, and introduces industry trends and solutions to improve global fulfillment capabilities.

In the first half of 2025, the global logistics industry continued to be affected by multiple factors such as geopolitical conflicts, changes in international trade policies and labor-capital disputes. As the Red Sea route continues to be blocked and Sino-US trade frictions re-emerge, companies are accelerating the adjustment of their supply chain layout and seeking more diversified and flexible logistics solutions.

According to the latest data from the Port of Los Angeles, container throughput in the first quarter of 2025 fell 32% year-on-year. At the same time, many ports in Japan were shut down due to labor-capital negotiations, resulting in a large number of containers being delayed in transshipment, further exacerbating global port congestion. Ports in the Asian region - including Singapore, Busan, and Ningbo Port in China - have recently shown a trend of freight volume returning, becoming a key node for the "detour" adjustment of global routes.

"Logistics is no longer a simple transportation, but a part of the global strategic deployment. The head of logistics at VIPULOGISTICS said. "If companies want to reduce the risks brought by uncertainty, it is particularly important to choose professional freight forwarders with global networks and regional scheduling capabilities.”

In order to adapt to the ever-changing market environment, more and more companies are adopting intermodal transport and supply chain visualization tools to shorten the delivery cycle through sea-air transport, China-Europe trains, and other combined methods. At the same time, the integration of AI prediction algorithms and blockchain tracking systems is helping companies to monitor transportation nodes in real time, optimize warehouse configuration, and improve overall logistics efficiency and transparency.

In recent years, integration cases such as Stord's acquisition of Ware2Go have also fully reflected the industry's trend towards "platformization + networking". By integrating warehousing, transportation, and IT systems, such services provide companies with more efficient fulfillment support.
