The agreement on overseas freight depot plans to take Zhengzhou Airport as the distribution hub in China, while Budapest in Europe.

Once in operation, data can be shared between Zhengzhou Airport and Budapest Airport Cargo Terminal through the "Overseas Freight Depot Information Service Platform".

"The establishment of this freight depot in Europe is a new war for Zhengzhou Airport to make contributions in the Belt and Road Initiative tasks, which is bound to enhance the independent and controllable ability of the logistics industry, thus reaching the goal of China-made goods transported by Chinese logistics." Kang Xingzhen, president of Henan Airport Group, remarked that, on the one hand, it can provide not only differentiated competitive advantages to greatly improve Zhengzhou Airport's cargo throughput, but also strong and efficient logistics support for the cross-border e-commerce enterprises in Henan.

“设立海外货站是郑州机场融入‘一带一路’建设的创新举措，可增强物流产业链自主可控能力，实现‘国货国运’。”河南机场集团董事长康省桢说，郑州机场建设海外货站，一方面可打造差异化竞争优势，大幅度提升货邮吞吐量；另一方面能解决跨境电商的发展需求问题，为河南发展跨境电商提供强大物流基础支撑。
