Special Introduction ▼ 2018 FMCG City Distribution Logistics Conference Time: October 23-24, 2018 Address: Changsha Gaoqiao International Commodity Exhibition and Trade Center Forum: 2018 FMCG City Distribution Logistics Conference New Distribution is organizing a 'FMCG City Distribution Logistics Conference' on October 23-24, focusing on in-depth discussions on city distribution logistics for FMCG distributors.

01 Three Core Topics

1. In city distribution, what exactly should you profit from? Currently, many distributors across the country have sensed the trend of unified warehousing and distribution, and are actively preparing or already on the path of transforming into warehousing and distribution platforms. The initial idea before transformation was to provide warehousing and distribution services to distributors and charge fees, but after actual operation, they realized that the profitability of warehousing and distribution services cannot support the high upfront investment in 'intelligence, technology, and equipment'. A 10,000m2 warehouse, dozens of vehicles, transaction flow exceeding hundreds of millions, but when calculating, revenue is only in the millions, and after deducting costs, net profit is less than a million. So, how should city distribution actually make money? Besides making distributors pay, who else is willing to pay? Can upstream brand owners pay? Can chain retailers pay? Can e-commerce giants pay for last-mile distribution? Additionally, can warehousing and distribution platforms extend other businesses, such as providing financial services like warehouse receipt pledge for distributors, or extending B2C to community and social e-commerce?

2. When distributors transform into same-city logistics, how to break through when peers refuse to join the warehouse? The first hurdle distributors face when transforming into same-city logistics platforms is that peer distributors refuse to join the warehouse! 'We've talked until we're blue in the face, but they just won't join.' Facing these 'stubborn' traditional distributors, what methods can we adopt to get them to join? Is it through multiple distributors jointly establishing a supply chain management company to achieve product density, distribution density, and network density, or through ground promotion teams rooting in small stores, serving them, or even rebranding them to force distributors to join? In addition, how to dispel distributors' concerns about their business being intercepted? How to resolve their distrust that the platform can provide incremental growth? Is it through guaranteed distribution income, or first establishing a 1.5-tier distribution platform to show distributors sales growth?

3. Launch Ceremony of the 'China FMCG Distributor City Distribution Alliance' From New Distribution's perspective, although FMCG B2B has developed rapidly in recent years, the warehousing and distribution of goods circulation has not been well resolved. The overall FMCG industry needs a national trunk and branch network to truly achieve the 'bus-ification' and 'routing' of warehousing and distribution logistics. In the past, whether it was self-operated B2B platforms or traditional distributors transforming into warehousing and distribution platforms, their fragmentation, locality, and singularity prevented them from undertaking the digital transformation of upstream brand owners' supply chains. Especially for enterprises with tens of billions in scale, brand owners have a strong demand for omni-channel supply chain services (warehousing and distribution). Based on this, initiated by the FMCG Branch of the China Electronic Commerce Association, the China FMCG Distributor City Distribution Alliance, a public welfare organization, is being established. It aims to leverage social forces to build a socialized, third-party national logistics city distribution alliance, empowering local regional warehousing and distribution platforms. This will help upstream brand owners achieve rapid implementation of warehousing and distribution through the 'City Distribution Alliance'. In short, under the guidance of the association, we will unite all city distribution companies and distributor-transformed warehousing and distribution platforms nationwide to establish an industry-wide 'order receiving platform'. This allows city distribution platforms (demand side) to not only receive local city distribution business but also connect to national city distribution business; and allows brand owners (supply side) to avoid searching for third-party city distribution platforms one by one, region by region. We hope that with the association's leadership, promotion, and advocacy, the alliance will become a highly influential industry platform for city distribution order supply and demand, and a 'bidding and tendering' center for urban supply chains. For specific details about the alliance, we will have Mr. Ren Xiaodong, Secretary-General of the FMCG Branch of the Electronic Commerce Association, give a special report and address on the morning of October 24.
