Summarize the world's 10 logistics companies, we found that the following four features were present: 1. American logistics companies dominate.
The United States in the top 10 logistics enterprises in the world has five, including two largest companies UPS and Fedex, and the five income and account for 2/3 of the top 10 companies, it can be seen in the world. The status is lifted. In a sense, the development of logistics market is proportional to economic development. 2.10 large success logistics enterprises, companies with air transport, express, land transportation, major backgrounds. If the UPS land transport and air transport business account for 54% and 19%, Fedex's air transport and road transport business account for 83% and 11%, and Japan's air transport and air transport business account for 44% and 16%, TNT post. And express delivery accounts account for 42% and 41%, and the airpina's air transport and shipping business account for 45% and 31% respectively.
3. The region is high in regional concentration (ie, localization). If the US domestic business accounts for 89% of its entire business, Fedex's US domestic business accounts for 76%, DPWN's European business accounts for more than 70% of its total business, and TNTs account for 85% of its total business, Japan. The localization of the transport is 93%. 4.10 Most of the largest logistics companies are asset-intensive companies, most of which have logistics facilities and networks. Therefore, from the business structure, in the road to enter the modern logistics industry, the comprehensive enterprises with express delivery business, including express delivery, air transport will have huge potential. The operation mode is currently in the world's large-scale logistics company to adopt the system and the branch system, take the headquarters logistics operation, implement business vertical management, in fact, integrated management model (only one command center, others are operating points). In practice, modern logistics requires a unified command center, the operation mode of multiple operations centers. Because effective control is a guarantee of modern logistics. From the content of the logistics business, each content is not complicated, but the service of the coordination must establish an efficient and authoritative organizational system that controls the status of logistics and future operations, and can process the connection in time and effectively. Various difficult problems and emergencies that need to have a strong ability to control the entire logistics business to control and coordinate the entire logistics business. Various interfaces and various decisions must be associated together to create a job system. If all departments emphasize that they are the profit center, consider the problem always link the cost with the maximum profit, so that the foreign quote is definitely no competitive. Therefore, when you engage in logistics business, you can only have a profit center. All other institutions, all departments should be cost centers, all listen to the command center of the profit center, everything is the profit center, all the interests of the profit center Your own interests. It can be said that there is no strong command center and the internal organic connection running network, which is not a real logistics. The real modern logistics must be a command center, a profit center, organization, framework, system, etc. to match a center. On the one hand, the division is required to resolutely obey the headquarters, and the headquarters has a high degree of control of the segment, and the division is specialized in the operation, and the process is standardized. On the other hand, headquarters must have strong command, design capabilities, and the ability to highly accurate and control risk on market grasp. To do this, you must not open the rapid response ability of the market, you must guarantee information and network. In the management and operation of modern logistics, information technology and information networks play a very important role, even the company's image and core competitiveness. Therefore, large professional logistics companies usually have operational management systems, quality assurance systems, information management systems, and customer management systems. The profit model has passed the top 10 of the world's logistics. We found that non-asset logistics companies have clear profitability than asset logistics companies, and competitive business cores are logistics management, also known as supply chain management. Among them, logistics design, control, organization, and coordination is its competitive basis. It has a representative competition to highly attach great importance to logistics solution design; strictly enforce unified service standards in service operations; adhere to strict quality management systems; throughout the information technology and information network throughout the logistics process. Secondly, we found 10 major success logistics companies, with air transport, express delivery, land transportation and other companies, the main background of the company, and large, strong profitability, indicating that the time-sensitive transportation service is large in the logistics industry. have a future. Again, although the non-asset-type logistics company is full, it is still in the top 10 of the world's logistics, and there is still a large number of logistics facilities, the network, and a mixed company with strong logistics design capabilities. The maximum development space.
In recent years, large-scale logistics companies have increased the following means in order to expand their business, have taken the following means: 1. Through integration or mergers, enter a variety of transportation services, improve profits to enter the world logistics 10 enterprises, are all available in transportation, and jointly or merged in some industries related to logistics or new fields to consolidate Or occupy the new market, thereby achieving profits, winning the purpose of our customers. On the basis of maintaining existing important customers, UPS continues to expand its business scope and focus on the development of huge potential. If expanding the field of zero-fitting logistics services, involving almost all industries in the global economy such as automotive manufacturing. The company has established links with Toyota, Honda, Chrysler, etc. a few years ago. Recently, the company has formed a strategic alliance with Ford Motors, providing supply chain re-planning, transportation network management, parts service logistics, and car manufacturers and suppliers. Provide technical solutions such as technical solutions.

The German Post Group has acquired Dandes, who has acquired Swiss freight forwarders in the past two years, and the AEI freight forwarders of North America, and after integration, the turnover rose significantly, reaching 8.3 billion euros, up 86% over the same period of the previous year. The company will also increase the original 25% of the shares in Dharma International Express Company and is prepared to increase this share to 73% in the next two years. TNT and Smart Parcel reached an agreement to provide German customers with a new Internet-based European Express service. EXEL and Amey Railway Repair have signed a contract worth 2 million pounds, and Amey handed all logistics services to Exel. EXL has purchased a logistics company of US $ 330 million, which provides logistics and freight forwarding services for the automotive industry. This acquisition will strengthen EXL in North America. The company has risen by 53% last year, reaching 1.5 billion pounds, and the operating profit is 56.3 million pounds, an increase of 43.3%. 2. Re-integrating business processes, achieving resource optimization Configuring modern logistics is a wider concept, including e-commerce and a series of related service projects, telephone service centers, websites, trading systems, and raw materials procurement, order fulfillment, transportation Management and other operations. At present, these 10 companies have "first-class three networks", namely fixed-single traffic, global supply chain resource network, global user resource network, computer information network. The warehouse utilization can be increased by more than 2 times. 3. Provide quality and personalized services. The biggest advantage of TNT and Smart Parcel's agreement is "tailor-made". Customers can use a computer or a mobile phone with WAP to determine when to send the destination, and the package is sent, the information will automatically feed back to the computer or mobile phone specified by the customer. In short, the top 10 of the world's logistics has many advantages in business structure, operation mode, and profit model, worthy of our serious research, analysis, and worthy of our Chinese logistics enterprises or companies that are upgrading to logistics transformation.
