In this enchanting and?peaceful?summer in Qingdao, CIMC Vehicles Group and Alibaba Group are going to initiate the operating model for the sharing of cold chain. On April 27, 2018, China Jiangsu Vanguard Trailer Rental Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as the “Vanguard Trailer Rental”, subsidiary of CIMC) and Shanghai Xianjia Logistics Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as the Xianjia, subsidiary of Alibaba) reached an agreement on cooperation and held a delivery ceremony for first “Hongxue” series refrigerator trailers. Wang Xiaoyi, General Manager of Qingdao CIMC Reefer Trailer Co., Ltd., also attended the delivery ceremony on invitation.

Xianjia, a cold chain logistics company for fresh food in China, is going to join hands with China’s other e-commerce enterprises to build a nationwide cold chain network and a professional platform for cold chain business. Xunlu Cold Chain, a brand under Xianjia, in 2018 will build 50 large-and-medium-sized professional warehouses and distribute 100 transport arteries and 1,000 feeder transportation lines and branch lines. It will also integrate the port resources of major fresh food.

Wang Jian, Vice President of Xianjia, said that “CIMC Vehicles is a technology-leading company, enjoying popularity in industry. We are pleased that our project goes well. Vanguard Trailer Rental and Xianjia are both green hands for that we are newly established and there’s novelty in both our business models. Xianjia’s cooperation with Trailer Group will help Xianjia reduce one-time investing costs, as well as trial and error risks at the same time, which could help us seize the cold chain market opportunities in asset-light business model. In the future, we hope that Vanguard Trailer Rental and Xianjia will connect each other more closely and score a win-win scenario. ”

He Xiansong, the COO of Vanguard Trailer Rental, also claimed that together with Xianjia, we have made substantial progress. The refrigerated trailers we have provided is not the same as what you can see in the market. They are the fruits of various affiliated enterprises, including Qingdao CIMC Reefer Trailer Co., Ltd. Innovative ways are also adopted to produce our refrigerated trailers, making them superior in market with regard to product selection, materials, design, manufacturing, intelligence and so on. Compared with traditional refrigerated trailers, our products provide Intelligent Trailer Management System, which can locate the trailers in real time and set the datum temperature and alarm threshold freely. It is a new technology we use for the transparent management of freight. In the future, we are looking forward to cooperating with more enterprises who are devoted to cold chain transport. And we have prepared to join hands with them to expand market share in China and the rest of the world. We are also committed to promoting the sound development of the industry of cold chain equipment and making the “sharing of cold chain” create new circulation value.
