Henan's Logistics Growth Rate Higher Than National Average in H1

河南省上半年物流总额增速高于全国

In the first half of 2022, Henan's social logistics volume amounted to 8.5 trillion yuan with an increase of 4.3 percent year-on-year at comparable price, 1.2 percentage points higher than the national average, said a source from Henan Federation of Logistics and Purchasing on August 14.

8月14日，记者从河南省物流与采购联合会获悉，我省上半年物流运行情况报告发布，全省社会物流总额8.5万亿元，按可比价格计算，同比增长4.3%，高出全国平均增速1.2个百分点。

Specifically, during the January-June period, logistics volume of industrial goods and public and private goods jumped 4.5 percent and 10.3 percent year-on-year to 7.10792 trillion yuan and 52.8 billion yuan respectively, each accounting for 83.9 percent and 0.6 percent of the provincial total, basically flat compared with the same period of last year, while that of goods from other provinces 0.6 percent to 658.77 billion yuan, accounting for 7.8 percent of the provincial total, 0.5 percentage points lower from a year earlier. Besides, during the same period, logistics volume of agricultural products and imported commodities saw a year-on-year increase of 5.1 percent and 9.8 percent to 499.56 billion yuan and 150.11 billion yuan, each accounting for 5.9 percent and 1.8 percent of the provincial total, 0.4 and 0.1 percentage points higher from a year earlier, while that of renewable resources 6.3 percent to 6.14 billion yuan, basically flat compared with the same period of last year.

物流运行情况报告显示，上半年，工业品物流总额71079.2亿元，同比增长4.5%，占物流总额的83.9%，与去年同期持平；农产品物流总额4995.6亿元，同比增长5.1%，占物流总额的5.9%，同比提高0.4个百分点；单位与居民物品物流总额528亿元，同比增长10.3%，占物流总额的0.6%，与去年同期持平；外省流入物品物流总额6587.7亿元，同比增长0.6%，占物流总额的7.8%，同比下降0.5个百分点；再生资源物流总额61.4亿元，同比增长6.3%，与去年同期持平；进口货物物流总额1501.1亿元，同比增长9.8%，占物流总额的1.8%，同比提高0.1个百分点。

"Social logistics is closely related to economy. The development of Henan's logistics sector matched its GDP growth over the past 6 months, data showed." According to Li Peng, secretary-general of Henan Federation of Logistics and Purchasing, in the first half of 2022, COVID-19 slowed the overall development of Henan's logistics. However, with the effective prevention and control of the pandemic and the implementation of a package of detailed policy measures to further stabilize the economy, Henan's logistics growth rate that had been lower than the national average for 5 quarters consecutively has finally shown the growth trend with steady increase in logistics demand.

“社会物流总额与经济发展总量息息相关，通过数据可以看出，我省物流业发展与GDP增速保持高度同频。”河南省物流与采购联合会秘书长李鹏介绍，上半年，受疫情影响，物流业总体增长放缓。随着疫情得到有效防控以及稳经济一揽子政策措施有效实施，社会物流供需两端共同发力，物流需求稳定增长，扭转了连续5个季度增速低于全国的被动局面，物流业总体趋于平稳，呈现稳中有进态势。（中文来源/河南日报 记者/逯彦萃 编译/赵汉青 杨佳欣 审校/丁岚）
