Innovative Supply Chain Services at CISCE

The 4th China International Supply Chain Expo (CISCE) recently unveiled a dedicated area for supply chain services, focusing on specialized and high-value business services that support every phase of the supply chain. This area is built upon four fundamental pillars: Blue Channel, Integrated Logistics, Comprehensive Services, and Industrial Finance.

The Blue Channel section features leading global players in maritime transport, including China Merchants Group, Shandong Port Group, and major international carriers like Maersk, MSC (Mediterranean Shipping Company), and FedEx. Their exhibitions illustrate how China's port infrastructures connect all six continents, highlighting the vital role of maritime logistics in global supply chains.

The Integrated Logistics section unites both Chinese and international partners such as China Henan Aviation Group, YTO Express, Hebei Logistics Group, Nippon Express, and Top Ideal, providing a comprehensive overview of multimodal transport solutions. Presentations cover air freight hubs, smart cold chain systems, and the routes of the “China-Europe Railway Express,” demonstrating how land, sea, air, and rail networks work together to create resilient and adaptable supply chains.

In the Comprehensive Services area, exhibitors focus on business services that extend beyond fundamental logistics to include knowledge-intensive offerings such as legal consulting, data analysis, carbon market insights, and AI-based export tools. Notable participants include the integrated free trade zone of Beijing Daxing Airport and China Carbon Emission Registration and Clearing Co., Ltd.

The Industrial Finance section brings together industry leaders like China UnionPay, Visa, and Mastercard, aiming to establish a global payment ecosystem. The China Export-Import Bank, along with ICBC and Bank of Communications, showcases how public-supported loans and commercial banking activities can collaborate to aid Chinese businesses in their international expansion. Additionally, covers for risks associated with commercial credit and cross-border commitments can be found from firms like PICC.

The Singapore Business Federation (SBF) leads a delegation highlighting the growing trade finance capabilities in the Asia-Pacific region, alongside representatives from UOB, DBS, and OCBC.

From large vessels to cloud-based data platforms, and international trade financing to energy transition solutions, the supply chain services area gathers top-tier companies, both from China and abroad, to address a pressing issue of our time: how to make supply chains more resilient, smarter, and greener. This space serves not just as a collective showcase for companies but as a clear representation of the ongoing opening of the services sector in China, spotlighting the future directions for global supply chain industries.
