Since the demand structure, the structural optimization and adjustment trend has been shown, especially robots and industrial computer equipment and control systems, related carbon fibers and related materials, rare earths and magnetic materials, maintained a high growth of more than 30%.
Policies promote good logistics growth in many fields such as equipment manufacturing
Driven by factors such as equipment update policies, from January to February, the year-on-year growth rate of logistics demand in industries such as railway transportation equipment manufacturing and urban rail transit equipment manufacturing exceeded 20%; the year-on-year demand for automobile manufacturing logistics increased by 12%, maintaining double-digit growth for four consecutive months. Driven by policies such as home appliances trade-in, the demand for home appliance manufacturing logistics increased by 10.1% year-on-year, and the output of home appliances such as household refrigerators and household washing machines has achieved double-digit growth.
In addition, the special action to boost consumption continues to be implemented, the potential for logistics development in rural areas, e-commerce and other fields is constantly being released, and the vitality of county and township consumer markets is increasing. From January to February, the proportion of county and township retail sales of consumer goods accounted for 38.4% of the total retail sales of consumer goods, an increase of 0.3 percentage points over the same period last year.
