The country is rich in mineral and fuel resources: iron ore, polymetal ores, mercury, asbestos, etc.

In agriculture, many agricultural systems have formed due to different climatic conditions.

Methods of goods delivery from China

The fastest and best option for delivering a small amount of cargo is air transportation. Air delivery has several important advantages: efficiency, safety (send cargo by air – a delivery method that minimizes the possibility of damage to the goods), the frequency of flights. This option is best suited for the delivery of goods that quickly deteriorate and lose market value. Delivering cargo by air is an ideal way to transport particularly fragile cargo. In China, there are more than 50 airports capable of handling goods and sending them to the most remote places on the planet. The largest airports from which you can send air cargo are located in the cities of Beijing, Guangzhou and Shanghai. Thanks to efficiency, it is possible to deliver air cargo within a few days.

Given the price, the best option for delivering large volumes of cargo is container shipping. Sea shipping is especially beneficial for those who need to transport bulk cargo that cannot be shipped by plane or by land. This transportation option is also beneficial for the transportation of consumer goods and clothing. This product does not deteriorate, so it can be transported without problems for a long period of time. The containers with the goods must be sealed, so the customer can be sure of the reliability of transport. China has a well-developed network of railways and highways, which provides access to ports. Port infrastructure is growing rapidly and provides most of the domestic trade. The largest ports here are Shanghai, Ningbo, Dalian, Hong Kong, Qingdao, Qinhuangdao, Guangzhou with Huangpu. This type of cargo delivery takes from 30 to 45 days.

For transporting large quantities of goods, rail is another option. It is possible to transport goods in bulk or in containers.
