At 17:47 p.m. on September 24, a full cargo plane of Shunfeng Airlines, which took off from Lahore, Pakistan, landed steadily at Ezhou Huahu International Airport, loaded with 13 tons of "Pakistan Railway" pine nuts imported from western Pakistan. After customs clearance, it was sent from Ezhou to Yiwu, and then spread across the country. With efficient and stable logistics services, people across the country could eat fresh and high-quality Pakistani pine nuts.
Under the careful arrangement of SF Express, Songzi, which departed from Lahore, Pakistan, was able to reach its destination in China in just 24 hours, greatly reducing transportation time. Meanwhile, by optimizing its logistics plan, SF Express has successfully saved customers an average transportation cost of 20%, achieving a win-win situation for both economic and social benefits.
The "Ezhou Lahore" international freight route, which opened on January 13th this year, also provides an efficient and stable air logistics channel for economic and trade exchanges between China and Pakistan, opens up the Pakistani market for Chinese brands, and provides more logistics convenience for Pakistani products to enter the Chinese market.
The pine nuts in western Pakistan, abbreviated as "Brazilian pine nuts", are produced in the pine forests bordering Afghanistan in the west. The period from flowering to maturity of pine cones is about three years, and traditional manual harvesting is generally used locally. Pine nuts have high nutritional and medicinal value. Pakistan has abundant pine nut production, making it the fifth largest pine nut producing country in the world and the largest source of pine nut imports for China.
With the continuous advancement of globalization, SF Express will continue to leverage its efficient logistics network and professional transportation service advantages to further promote economic exchanges and cultural integration between China and Pakistan. In the future, we can foresee that more high-quality Pakistani pine nuts will continuously reach consumers through SF Express's fast channel.
