On the afternoon of March 2, 2022, the first international freight train of the China-Laos Railway (Jiangjin-Vientiane) in the new land-sea corridor officially departed from the Xiaonanya Railway Logistics Center in the Luohuang Logistics Park area of Chongqing Jiangjin, carrying a total of 37 containers with a value of about 400 10,000 yuan, including chemicals, building materials, general machinery, daily necessities, etc.

In the past, Chongqing's products exported to Vientiane, Laos could only rely on highways to go through Mohan Port in Yunnan to Vientiane, Laos, and the whole journey took 10 days. With the opening of the China-Laos Railway, the transportation time of Chongqing's export goods has been shortened to about 5 days.

"Railway transportation can save a lot of time and logistics costs, and the safety of goods is more guaranteed. The CEP will be officially implemented in 2022, coupled with the opening of the China-Laos railway, our company is more confident to explore the Southeast Asian market and enhance the international competitiveness of the brand. ” said Jiang Nan, head of Jiangji Winery, an enterprise in Jiangjin.
