Aramex-Sinotrans, an international express and freight service provider, relocated its express center to the Shanghai Hongqiao International Central Business District in 2016, considering its advantages of being home to China's largest comprehensive transportation hub.

Being close to the airport, railway station, and ports allows us to offer diverse transportation solutions. At the same time, it also balances the transportation cost and the efficiency, said a senior executive of the company.

Over the following years, Aramex-Sinotrans continued to benefit from Hongqiao's fast development, as the five editions of the China International Import Expo made a great success and an increasing number of cross-border e-commerce companies and foreign trade businesses set up operations in Hongqiao, which has become an enormous client resource for the company.

In a strategic move to strengthen its collaboration with upstream and downstream companies in the region, Aramex-Sinotrans set up its China headquarters in Hongqiao in 2019.

"It's a win-win cooperation, as the trade companies can enjoy highly efficient international logistics services, which boosts our business simultaneously," said the senior executive.

Aramex-Sinotrans made remarkable progress in expanding its operations and enhancing its international delivery services. The company has successfully signed fixed cabin agreements with numerous domestic and foreign airlines, solidifying its partnerships and securing access to more than 20 air routes. This extensive network of air routes enables Aramex-Sinotrans to provide efficient and reliable delivery services on an international scale.
