Taking the opportunity of the construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing economic circle, Chongqing Port Logistics Group and Sichuan Port and Shipping Investment Group signed a cooperation agreement on June 17.

They will cooperate on enhancing port operations, multimodal transport, channel development, whole process logistics and supply chain finance to co-build a shipping center in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.

The cooperation is expected to promote inland opening-up, accelerate international logistics hub construction, reduce logistics costs, optimize services for real economy development, and build a more attractive business environment.
