Yangcheng Lake Crab Season Begins, China Southern Air Logistics Facilitates Nationwide Distribution

As the autumn season deepens, the peak period for hairy crab transportation is unfolding. On September 25, the official fishing season for Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs commenced, with the distinctively marked crabs – green shell, white belly, yellow hair, and golden claws – reaching their peak shipping volume. On the opening day, China Southern Air Logistics Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “China Southern Air Logistics”) Shanghai branch transported 40 tons of hairy crabs, hitting a single-day peak for crab exports, primarily to Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and the Northeast regions.

According to crab vendors, this year Yangcheng Lake did not experience many high-temperature days, avoiding extreme heat, with water temperatures consistently maintained between 25-28°C, ideal for hairy crab farming. Consequently, the survival rate and growth condition of the crabs are better than in previous years.

In recent years, with the advancement of fresh logistics and the booming e-commerce industry, online purchasing of Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs has become commonplace alongside traditional supermarkets and distributors. As a fresh cold chain product, the high requirements for transportation timeliness are crucial to ensure that the crabs reach customers while maintaining high quality. To address this, China Southern Air Logistics launched the “China Southern Express” service, offering “same-day delivery” and “next-day delivery” options. Utilizing China Southern’s extensive airline network, customers can place orders in the morning and enjoy the crabs by evening.

To ensure efficient transportation of hairy crabs, China Southern Air Logistics’ Shanghai branch proactively communicated with crab farmers, end customers, and e-commerce platforms, refining the entire transportation collaboration process and ensuring the quality of fresh products. With the approach of the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day, the shipping volume of seasonal products such as seafood, aquatic products, and fruits from Shanghai is also on the rise. In response, the Shanghai branch has developed targeted transportation plans, based on the characteristics of holiday goods and fresh products, assigned personnel to strictly inspect packaging and shipping quality, and established a fresh product green channel to improve transportation efficiency, ensuring safe, efficient, and smooth transportation.

China Southern Air Logistics adheres to a customer-first service philosophy, aiming to “enable a better life.” The company continuously optimizes its product system to maintain a seamless air logistics supply chain, ensuring that people can gather and celebrate holidays with timely deliveries.
