Intelligent logistics is the basis of modern logistics. Intelligent logistics uses integrated intelligent technology to make the logistics system imitate human intelligence, with thinking, perception, learning, reasoning judgment and the ability to solve some problems in logistics by itself. According to the statistics of China Logistics Industry Association, China's logistics costs accounted for 18% of GDP, compared with the United States and Japan and other developed countries, the proportion of logistics costs per unit GDP in China is 2-3 times that of other countries, and the trend is expanding year by year. We believe that intelligent logistics based on the Internet of Things is the basis of Industry 4.0, and is an ideal solution to improve the efficiency of modern logistics and reduce the rate of logistics costs in the whole society.
China's intelligent logistics market is developing rapidly. From 2007 to 2015, China's intelligent logistics market as a whole maintained rapid development. In 2012, the scale of China's intelligent logistics market exceeded 100 billion yuan, an increase of 13%, in 2014, the scale of China's intelligent logistics market exceeded 180 billion yuan, an increase of 26%, and the growth rate of unmanned intelligent production lines reached a high point in recent years. We believe that e-commerce and express delivery will be the decisive force to promote the further rapid development of intelligent logistics in the next few years, and China's intelligent logistics market will still maintain rapid growth in the next few years.
China's intelligent logistics equipment market has broad prospects, including transportation and three-dimensional storage. We believe that intelligent logistics is expected to become one of the general market segments in the field of automation in the future, and the strategic opportunity period for the development of the industry is still 3-5 years, and the overall is expected to maintain a rapid growth of 20%-30%. Among them, the intelligent logistics conveying system market needs to distinguish prosperity according to downstream demand, the potential industries in the future include: tobacco, e-commerce, express delivery, medicine, food and beverage, manufacturing, textile and clothing, etc.; The intelligent logistics warehousing system market is expected to maintain rapid growth in the next five years. The size of the automated warehouse market is expected to be between 15-20 billion yuan.
Logistics equipment production to replace the trend of The Times. Early in China to meet the needs of intelligent transportation complete sets of equipment, system integration packaging production line is mainly dependent on imports of foreign complete sets of equipment, at present, China's intelligent logistics complete sets of equipment industry about 2/3 market share occupied by foreign enterprises. In our country, there is no access restriction in industrial policy for the intelligent transmission of complete equipment industry, and market competition is full. We believe that in the future, domestic enterprises will replace foreign enterprises, and enterprises can obtain significant benefits in this round of localization.
Logistics equipment manufacturers to intelligent logistics system integrator transformation. At present, the traditional equipment manufacturers in the industrial chain in the lower gross profit; System integration, equipment customization and other services occupy the high profit margins of the industry, and traditional equipment manufacturers are developing into integrated solutions providers of automated logistics systems. Foreign automated logistics system providers have advantages in logistics hardware and software technology and industry experience, and domestic enterprises with better localized service advantages have strong competitive advantages in some low-end projects, and successfully entered the project field. At present, there are more than 20 major logistics system integration service providers with a certain scale in the domestic market, and they have their own advantages in different downstream application fields. Automobiles, tobacco, medicine, food and beverage are the advantages of domestic intelligent logistics system integrators. Overseas logistics equipment leading revenue scale of 17 billion, domestic enterprises can have great potential for development
