Based on China-Europe freight trains, Henan has been accelerating the construction of an international logistics channel covering Eurasia since 2014. So far, Henan has formed a freight network with 7 exit-entry ports and 16 direct routes with over 6,000 trips made (accounting for 12 percent of China's total) and its businesses covering more than 130 cities in over 30 countries. Featured by the integration of freight and trade, digitalization and trains with constant temperature, Henan has stood at the forefront of China-Europe freight train services. Besides, Zhengzhou is also one of China's five China-Europe freight train assembly centers.

2014年以来,河南以中欧班列建设为抓手,加快打造辐射欧亚大陆的国际物流通道,实现“7个口岸出入境、16条线路直达”线路网络,累计开行6000余列,占到全国开行总量的近12%,业务范围覆盖30多个国家130多个城市,打造出“运贸一体化”、数字班列、恒温班列等河南特色品牌,综合运营能力保持在全国前列,郑州被国家确定为五个中欧班列集结中心之一。

 

In the first quarter of 2022, Henan's China-Europe freight trains have made 423 trips with a year-on-year increase of 21 percent, of which 172 were made in March only, up 39 percent and 34 percent from January and February respectively.

据了解,今年一季度,河南中欧班列累计开行423列,较去年同期增长21%;其中,3月份开行172列,较1月份、2月份分别增长39%和34%。(中文来源/河南日报 记者/宋敏 编译/赵汉青 审校/陈行洁)
