China Post Packet Will Raise Prices, Spain Post Strike And Other Cross-Border Electricity Providers Are Very Upset.

Reporters learned that China Post packet will be fully raised in May 11th, while the Spanish post strike caused delays in parcel pfer and delivery, and also made China's cross-border e-commerce sellers upset.

It is learned that, as a strong logistics support for cross-border electricity providers, the China Post package will be fully increased from May 11th, although the gains in various regions are slightly different, but the average range will be around 15%.

In other words, Spanish post staff will go on strike in May.

The price will be raised by about 15%.

Recently, a seller broke the news to reporters.

The package will be fully increased in May 11th, and this information has also been recognized by multi-party logistics providers and platform providers.

In fact, the overall price increase is not new.

In August last year, the news of cancelling discounts in Southern China Post's small package caused a great stir, followed by a nationwide increase.

But unlike last year, the price increase this year is about 15% of the increase in the number of China post registration and peace post charges. The price increase is obviously higher than last year.

"

The peak season should be -12 months in August, so the adjustment of last year's small package discount is quite acceptable, but it's only May now, and it is adjusted on the basis of the original price. For the sellers who sell the packages under the line, they can either reduce the profit margins or reduce the competitiveness of the logistics cost for the sake of profit margins.

Seller Zhuang manager said.

Taking Russia as an example, she gave us an account. Without considering the E postal treasure, the basic price of the current packet of Russia is 96.3/kg, the average operating cost is 8 yuan, and the average freight discount on the market is 10 percent off, and the 1kg parcel freight is 94.67 yuan.

But if the price is raised by 15%, the freight cost will be increased by more than 13 yuan.

She said: "in the case of product homogenization, who can better control logistics costs?

For large sellers, online delivery or distribution through overseas warehouses has little impact.

But for a small seller with a small quantity, it does not have much decision power on the freight negotiation price. It depends entirely on the offline freight forwarder.

"

Many sellers are in a wait-and-see situation, and they are not aware of the implementation of the policy. Therefore, it is not urgent to change their shipping templates.

The industry also said that, with the further improvement of the rules of each platform, the gradual improvement of the market mechanism, and the overall price increase of small mail packets, some weaker sellers will be in danger, facing a new round of elimination of risk.

In addition, he added that due to the different price increases in different regions, Zhejiang and Guangzhou may be slightly lower, so the sellers of these two cities will be faced with the risk of explosion due to the rapid increase in the volume of packages. Therefore, it is suggested that multiple routes be shipped.

Spain post strikes in May

In addition to the increase in the price of the central post package,

The delay caused by the parcel pfer and delivery also made China's cross-border e-commerce sellers upset.

Reporters were informed that since April 30, 2015, the staff of the Spanish postal sector will continue to convene nationwide strike activities within the next month.

According to the news released by local trade unions, the main purpose of the strike is to protest against the new agreement and oppose massive layoffs.

In the past 5 years, the Spanish public postal service has laid off 15500 employees.

It is reported that on April 30th, the postal service in various parts of Spain conducted a two hour strike in Barcelona.

Subsequently, these postal workers will carry out nationwide strike activities in May 4th, strike in Madrid in May 13th, and national strike activities in May 14th -15 and May 22nd.

The industry insiders said that although the strike took place abroad, the service providers as head of the tour were not entirely without responsibility.

Take the China Post package as an example, whether it can better cooperate with the destination country post in clearing customs, pfer and delivery.

"In recent years, many overseas countries have launched strikes in the postal service. Apart from the service providers, the government, in addition to providing preferential benefits in the country, is able to reach the corresponding consensus with the target national government. In the event of an outbreak of force majeure, it is better to handle the package mail from China, and also make a good clearance for the Chinese sellers in the last kilometre link."

The reporter understands, although China postal packet is about to raise the price, but the insider said that the price increase is only under the category of online, and the online delivery is not affected.

In addition, this strike was not the first activity of Spanish post this year. In the beginning of April this year, Spain's strike activities led to the failure of the Madrid exchange office, processing center and delivery department to work normally, which had a great impact on the time limit for sending mail to Spain.

Affected by this, mail delivery and delivery services to Spain will be delayed, including China post parcel, EMS and SF European parcel. However, some of the special delivery services have little impact on SF European delivery.
