Build a collaborative platform and establish a barge service network

In the first half of the year, relying on the overall marketing and service network advantages of the Group, the Shuttle Bus actively explored the establishment of a “joint” service platform for the Pearl River Delta barge network. It has deepened strategic barge cooperation with Antong Logistics, built a Pearl River Delta barge cooperation platform with Antong and Wuzhou, formed a regional domestic trade service network in the Pearl River Delta, and launched boutique routes such as Huadu and Huangpu routes.
