Shaanxi Heavy-Duty Truck Exports to Central Asia

In the assembly workshop of Shaanxi Heavy Duty Automobile Co., Ltd., workers can complete the entire assembly of a vehicle in just 12 minutes. Once assembled, these vehicles are driven directly to the Khorgos Port by professional service personnel. At Khorgos, not only Kazakhstan awaits the shipments but also people from other countries.

Simultaneously, the Urumqi International Land Port Area, located in the Urumqi Economic and Technological Development Zone (Toutunhe District), is one of the landmark projects in the construction of the core area of the Silk Road Economic Belt. In this modern logistics center, a train is loading various goods, including general merchandise, hardware accessories, tiles, and more, quickly departing. Container handling operations here operate 24 hours a day, dispatching three trains daily. As of early November 2023, over 7,500 China-Europe freight trains have been successfully launched, covering 21 routes and connecting 26 cities in 19 countries across the Eurasian continent.

Border trade between China and the five Central Asian countries has always been very active. With the opening of the China-Europe freight train routes, transportation channels have become more diversified, and the scale of trade has shown a trend of gradual expansion. This series of developments has not only accelerated logistics efficiency but also promoted the vibrant growth of the regional economy.
