In the heart of China's southwestern region, the Western Logistics Park in Chongqing is quietly writing a new chapter in modern port economy innovation. This dynamic hub focuses on four key industries— logistics, trade, finance, and information technology —working to establish a comprehensive economic development model.
Logistics Infrastructure Expansion
The park has rapidly expanded its logistics capabilities by attracting global industry leaders such as Singapore's Mapletree and Italy's Vailog. These strategic partnerships have significantly strengthened the region's supply chain infrastructure, positioning Chongqing as a crucial node in international trade routes.
Trade Breakthroughs
Building on its strengths in vehicle imports, the park achieved remarkable trade growth last year. A total of 374 imported vehicles passed through the port , setting a national record for newly approved vehicle ports and representing a 190% year-on-year increase . This performance has established the Western Logistics Park as the top-performing new vehicle import port in China.
Financial Innovation
To support these economic activities, the park has developed robust financial services. Notable achievements include establishing a modern logistics industry fund and third-party payment companies. The park successfully raised $500 million through overseas bond issuance, significantly improving capital liquidity for businesses operating within the zone.
Digital Transformation
The information technology sector continues to make steady progress through international collaborations on smart park development projects. These initiatives are creating seamless digital connections between industries, enabling more efficient operations across the entire ecosystem.
Currently, the Western Logistics Park hosts 20 operational industrial projects and has registered 570 active businesses , demonstrating remarkable vitality and promising growth potential. This land has become more than just a transit point for goods and capital—it's fertile ground for innovation and international cooperation.
