Abstract
Situated in southeastern coastal region of China, Zhejiang Province is an important part of Yangtze River Delta and also regarded as one of the provinces with most developed economy and highest degree of opening-up in China.

In the past few years, the State Council has successively approved the plans to construct Zhejiang Marine Economy Development Demonstration Area, establish Zhoushan Islands New District and develop the Comprehensive Reform Pilot of Yiwu International Trade, thus bringing new opportunities and challenges for the development of logistics industry in Zhejiang.
