Parcel delivery active in rural business


The State Post Bureau of China selected over 140 model projects that showcases the parcel delivery sector's role in boosting agricultural business to facilitate rural revitalization, according to the bureau on Thursday.
Each project represents a local agricultural product from a municipal city that had been sold via the parcel delivery network, with over 10 million consignments last year. For instance, flowers and plants from Shuyang in Jiangsu province ranked at the top of the list, selling 413 million parcels.
The model projects were from 91 cities across 22 provincial-level regions, with 24 of them originating from Shandong province, ranking at the top of the list.
Products from the model projects include fruits, livestock products, and vegetables.
Better service models were seen among the model projects. For instance, parcel delivery companies not only provide a delivery network but also engage in live-streaming sales to assist in selling agricultural produce.
Lin Hu, a spokesman for the bureau, said: "The model projects have showcased the achievements resulting from the collaborative development of postal service, rural e-commerce, and the agriculture sectors."
