I. Development Status of China's Logistics Distribution Center For a long time, affected by the planned economy, China's logistics has a low degree of socialization, chaotic logistics management system and diversified institutions, which makes it difficult to give full play to the advantages of intensive operation of socialized mass production and specialized circulation, and it is difficult to achieve scale operation and scale benefits, with low utilization rate of facilities, unreasonable layout, repeated construction and serious waste of funds. Due to the conflict of interest and the unsmooth information, the surplus and shortage of materials can not be deployed in time, and a large number of materials are stranded in the circulation field, resulting in capital precipitation and a large number of inventory costs. In addition, the overall level of logistics enterprises and logistics organizations in China is low, the equipment is outdated, the loss rate is high, the efficiency is low, and the transportation capacity is seriously insufficient, which forms a "bottleneck", which restricts the development of logistics and the logistics distribution is obviously lagging behind. The separation of commercial flow and logistics has seriously affected commodity management and scale benefit. Practice has proved that the market economy needs a higher degree of organization, scale and systematization, and it is urgent to strengthen the construction of logistics distribution centers with information functions as soon as possible. Developing a new logistics distribution center with informationization, modernization and socialization is an important content of establishing and perfecting a new circulation system under the conditions of socialist market economy. As a developing country, China should learn from the experience of developed countries and use modern facilities, but it is impossible to reach the modernization level of logistics distribution centers in developed countries at present. We can only proceed from the national conditions, regional conditions and enterprise conditions to develop a new logistics distribution center with China characteristics. With the increasing popularity of e-commerce, China's logistics and distribution industry is bound to develop towards a new logistics and distribution center. According to the forecast of relevant state departments, China plans to build 100 logistics centers and 7 trading centers in the next10 year. From this point of view, the development prospect of logistics industry in China will be very broad. In March of 20001,the State Economic and Trade Commission, the Ministry of Railways, the Ministry of Communications, the Ministry of Information Industry, the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation and the Civil Aviation Administration jointly issued the Opinions on Accelerating the Development of Modern Logistics in China. The State Planning Commission and the State Economic and Trade Commission jointly issued the Catalogue of Industries, Products and Technologies Encouraged by the State at Present, which listed the development of logistics distribution centers as a key project to encourage development. Under the guidance of our government's macro-policy of vigorously developing modern logistics industry, various localities have issued their own logistics development plans, which put the development of modern logistics on the important agenda. Second, the main problems in the development of China's logistics distribution center at this stage 1. The distribution center facilities have low utilization rate and slow development. For a long time, China's logistics and distribution infrastructure has invested less and developed slowly. Although some advanced storage and logistics facilities have been built in recent years, on the whole, China's logistics and storage facilities are still relatively old and backward, and many warehouses built in the 1950s and 1960s are still in use. Moreover, the structure of warehousing and logistics facilities is unreasonable, and freight yards and low-grade facilities are common. To speed up the construction and technological transformation of China's logistics distribution infrastructure, encourage and attract all sectors of society to invest in the logistics industry, the state should also increase investment in this area, give some low-interest or discount loans to support the construction of logistics distribution facilities. 2. The overall distribution ratio of the distribution center is low, and the procurement cost is difficult to reduce. Judging from the existing commercial retail enterprises in China, except for some large and well-known commercial enterprises, most general commercial "chain" enterprises have not established their own logistics distribution centers or used third-party logistics centers. Although these enterprises have established their own chain stores, in fact, the goods operated by the stores have not achieved "unified procurement, unified distribution and unified settlement", which makes the "chain operation" of some commercial retail enterprises exist in name only! In other commercial enterprises that have established their own logistics distribution centers or used third-party logistics centers to realize commodity distribution, the efficiency of distribution centers has not been effectively exerted, which has affected the comprehensive procurement cost advantage of chain enterprises, resulting in extremely low distribution ratio of distribution centers and difficult reduction of procurement costs. 3. The socialization, organization and specialization of logistics are not high. The development level of China's logistics and distribution industry is low, which is also manifested in the small and scattered logistics and distribution enterprises, low degree of socialization and organization, poor connection and matching of all aspects of logistics and distribution, imperfect service functions, and few enterprises can achieve "one-stop" service. Production enterprises, circulation enterprises and logistics storage and transportation enterprises still have the phenomenon of "big and complete" and "small and complete". Most logistics enterprises are small in scale and lack a wide coverage of logistics distribution service network. 4. Low degree of modernization and low level of informatization With the rapid development of information technology, more and more enterprises in international and domestic commercial logistics distribution centers use information technology to improve their management level. For example, many information management technologies are currently used, including product identification barcode (BC), enterprise resource planning system (ERP), management information system (MIS), electronic data interchange system (EDI), geographic information system (GIS), automatic sorting system (ASS), flexible logistics system (AGV), global positioning system (GPS) and warehouse management system (WMS). From the information level of international and domestic commercial logistics distribution centers, chain commercial distribution centers in the United States generally adopt the integrated operation mode of mechanization, automation and information systems, such as electric forklifts, conveyor belts, loading and unloading, cranes and other mechanical facilities with the use of various information systems, which greatly improves management efficiency and saves personnel costs. Many three-dimensional commercial logistics centers in the United States have established professional communication networks, and the storage, handling and loading of goods are completed by computer-controlled pallets, shelf forklifts and cranes. The computer robot logistics operation mode adopted in Japan has been widely existed. Comparatively speaking, the modernization of China commercial logistics center is relatively backward. According to the survey of Zero Research Group, at present, more than 58% of the commercial enterprises that implement logistics distribution in China hardly use information technology or information systems for logistics operations, while 72% of the enterprises that use information technology for logistics management still rely mainly on traditional manual operations, and information technology is only used as its auxiliary management means. For example, forklift and pallet operations in the distribution center are basically assisted by manpower; There is no professional electronic scanning equipment for arrival sorting, commodity assembly and inventory; The application of computers is limited to the transactional management of distribution centers (such as recording and archiving information on the purchase, sale, storage, distribution and delivery of goods). ); Internet, warehouse management system (WMS) and management information system (MIS) are still the main applications of commercial logistics information technology, while the application of supply chain management and enterprise resource planning is still in the primary stage. Third, the basic countermeasures for the development of China commercial logistics distribution center 1. Accelerate the construction of modern logistics infrastructure and improve the overall logistics distribution capacity. Since the implementation of the Eighth Five-Year Plan and the Ninth Five-Year Plan, China's logistics infrastructure has begun to develop significantly, such as the government's investment in railway and highway construction has increased; The increase in the number and scale of logistics parks across the country; The growth of production and sales of medium and heavy trucks; The gradual adoption of modern logistics equipment indicates that China's logistics distribution industry has entered a period of rapid development, but compared with the development requirements of China's commercial logistics distribution centers, the construction of these infrastructures is still relatively backward. Mainly manifested in the imbalance of regional logistics infrastructure construction, such as China's current western development, which is a great development opportunity for China and foreign-funded commercial retail enterprises, but the current logistics infrastructure construction in the western region obviously cannot meet the local logistics distribution of chain enterprises. Therefore, from the perspective of improving logistics infrastructure and improving logistics distribution capacity, it is necessary to further accelerate the development of highways and high-speed railways in the western region and other areas with relatively slow logistics development. Improve the smoothness of urban internal traffic and reduce traffic congestion; At the same time, speed up the development and introduction of high-tech logistics equipment such as containers, bulk carriers, various loading and unloading appliances and mobile transportation appliances, improve the modern logistics management level of commercial enterprises themselves, and then create conditions for the development of commercial logistics distribution centers in China from the external development environment and internal operation hardware. 2. Vigorously promote the development of "* * * the same distribution center" At present, the development of commercial logistics distribution centers in China is mostly concentrated in the fields of department stores, supermarkets, large stores, discount stores and other formats. The main business format of each commercial chain enterprise is different, so their ideas of building distribution centers are not exactly the same. Generally speaking, department stores are more likely to adopt third-party logistics because of the low proportion of self-operated goods; Supermarkets mainly sell or sell goods on commission, so it is more likely to choose a self-built distribution center. Of course, there will be some differences in logistics distribution modes of other different formats, but no matter what retail formats, with the increasing number of stores in enterprises, one question they must consider is: establish their own logistics distribution center, use third-party logistics or build distribution centers with other retail enterprises? In the planning and decision-making of distribution centers, enterprises often encounter such problems. The number of enterprise chain stores is small. If the investment cost of self-built distribution center is too high, the capital flow is difficult; If the third party logistics is used, it is not a particularly effective strategy for the long-term development of enterprises, and it will divert the profits of enterprises. From the analysis of these two levels, * * * building a distribution center is an economic choice that can realize profit sharing! * * * The same distribution center can not only effectively solve the problem of insufficient funds for enterprises, but also enhance the group competitiveness of enterprise alliances through alliances among different retail enterprises, which is a very favorable logistics distribution model for small and medium-sized investors. 3. Improve the socialization and networking of logistics distribution. First, vigorously develop the socialized logistics service system, support the development of socialized logistics enterprises, and improve the scale efficiency of logistics distribution. The second is to improve the degree of logistics networking and organization, organize logistics-related enterprises in an appropriate way, and form a relatively complete logistics service network. Logistics enterprises should pay more attention to network construction and constantly improve the network service function. Third, make full use of the resources of logistics distribution facilities in the whole society, encourage mergers, reorganizations and alliances, give priority to technological transformation, and try to avoid redundant construction of logistics facilities and waste of resources. 4. Renew traditional ideas to provide talent guarantee for the development of China's logistics distribution center. In the process of promoting the development of China's logistics distribution center, due to the influence of traditional concepts, people have not paid enough attention to logistics distribution center. Therefore, the theoretical research and practical exploration of China's logistics, especially logistics distribution centers, have developed slowly for many years. Talent has become the bottleneck of the construction and development of China's logistics distribution center. To change this situation, we should first renew our ideas, and at the same time draw the attention of all sectors of society to logistics distribution centers through concrete actions, encourage the development and promotion of socialized logistics management training, and learn from international advanced logistics management experience and management methods; Industry associations can organize relevant personnel of domestic large and medium-sized logistics and distribution enterprises and commercial chain enterprises to conduct centralized training and field visits. Government departments in various regions should invest a certain amount of manpower, material resources and financial resources, constantly enhance the informatization awareness of national logistics distribution centers, improve the quality of workers, make full use of various means and educational channels, and establish a team of high-quality, professional and reasonable-level informatization talents in logistics distribution centers. Through the cultivation of high-quality logistics talents, we will speed up the in-depth research and practical experience exploration of logistics distribution centers in China, thus laying the foundation for the development of logistics distribution centers in China.
