On the busy new land and sea corridor, on the one hand, "Chongqing-made" specialty commodities such as laptop computers, automobiles, smart wearable devices, etc. are constantly "going out", and on the other hand, Southeast Asian specialties such as Thai durian, Cambodian rice, Vietnamese balsa fish, etc. are scrambling to enter the Chinese market. ...... In the first half of this year, Chongqing transported a total of 78,000 TEUs of goods with a value of 12.28 billion yuan through the new western land and sea corridor, an increase of 36% and 14% year-on-year, respectively, showing a strong momentum of development.

Chongqing, which is at the junction point of the "Belt and Road" and the Yangtze River Economic Belt, is the main initiator and important builder of the new corridor, and naturally shoulders the important responsibility of the logistics and operation organization center of the new land and sea corridor. The construction of the new western land and sea corridor is of great significance to Chongqing, and the construction of the new western land and sea corridor cannot be separated from the key role of Chongqing.

Orchard Port not only realizes the interconnection of the three major channels of China-Europe liner, the new western land and sea corridor and the golden waterway of the Yangtze River in terms of geography and location, but also realizes the seamless connection of the three major channels in terms of logistics and trade. Over the past few years, the annual throughput of Orchard Port has grown from more than 1 million tons to more than 24 million tons, with a good momentum of development.

Thanks to Chongqing Customs' support for the China-European liner and the new land and sea corridor iron and sea intermodal liner arriving and departing from the Port of Orchard and realizing normalized operation, as well as the upgrading of the Port of Orchard Bonded Logistics Center (B-type) to a comprehensive bonded area, the Port of Orchard has been approved as the designated supervisory site for fruits, grains, and meats.
