E-commerce booming after cross-border exchanges simplified

The inland city Zhengzhou, Henan province, is setting an example for the rest of China on how to make cross-border e-commerce simple and lucrative.

State-owned Henan Bonded Logistic Center, which started operations in 2014, has an innovative policy on cross-border e-commerce, which has shortened the waiting times for customers dramatically.

Instead of ordering a product from overseas and waiting the usual 15 days for it to arrive, it can be picked up almost immediately from a bonded warehouse, said Xu Ping, CEO of Henan Bonded Group.
