What does EMS mean?

1, EMS is an express mail service and a service product of China Post. It mainly uses air transportation to speed up delivery. Generally speaking, it takes 1-4 days according to the distance of the area.

Taobao's express delivery refers to other express delivery companies except postal services in the domestic market, and also uses its own network for express delivery business. Companies in the market mainly include: ZJS, Daejeon, SF, Shentong, etc. There are 1 000 express delivery companies in China.

Their service is the same in nature, and they all deliver goods to you. The difference is that one is a state-owned enterprise and the other is a private enterprise, each with its own advantages.

Here is a brief introduction to the major express delivery companies:

Domestic enterprises:

1, China Post EMS,

Advantages: the network is strong, with more than 2,000 outlets nationwide, which makes all competitors far behind, and these more than 2,000 points are all our own, not to mention the county town, even the village can do it.

Disadvantages: slow response speed, difficult to track the query.

Price: 20 yuan /500g, the price of certificate and package is different.

2. SF Express,

Shunfeng Company from Guangdong has developed rapidly in recent years. From a workshop-style company to a larger company, the achievements are obvious to all.

Advantages: the speed of express delivery to the Pearl River Delta is similar to EMS, and the price is lower than EMS.

Disadvantages: The quality of service sent to other regions is average.

3. shentong express,

Enterprises from the Yangtze River Delta started as couriers around Shanghai, and now they are doing business in Beijing.

Advantages: the express mail sent to the Yangtze River Delta is similar to EMS, and the price is lower.

Disadvantages: Like SF, there are geographical restrictions, and the quality of express mail service sent to other regions is average.

4.ZJS

The largest private express delivery company in China has more than 500 outlets, but most of them are cooperative outlets, and its own outlets are estimated to be around 100.

Advantages: the speed is similar to EMS, and even faster in some areas. You can also do freight.

Disadvantages: no file transfer.

Foreign-funded enterprises:

Since last year, foreign-funded enterprises can also do domestic express delivery market, and now global express delivery giants TNT and DHL are also opening domestic express delivery business.

Advantages: As a global express delivery giant, although it conducts business in China, speed is still the biggest selling point. In their service outlets, the speed is much faster than EMS, and the query is also in place.

Disadvantages: there are few networks, which can be reached in about 100 cities, and the price is expensive without documents. DHL is much more expensive, and sending it to Guangzhou is almost the same as sending it to Hong Kong. But the price of TNT is similar to that of EMS, and some cities are even cheaper.

To sum up, it is suggested that:

If your company often sends small cities, then EMS is the first choice, and other companies might as well go to small cities.

If your company only distributes to dozens of economically developed cities, such as Shanghai and Guangzhou, I suggest you use TNT, which is different in strength. It's really fast! I use them. DHL is fast, but it's just too expensive. Their roads are also very suitable for heavy goods.

If it is relatively cheap to go to Shanghai or Guangzhou, you can also choose SF Express or Shentong, but you will have to check out separately.

If you have dozens of tons of goods, you can find China Railway and ZJS. Their railway line is very reliable.

2.EMS, also known as enhanced SMS, can send simple pictures and sounds in addition to ordinary text messages. Based on ordinary network, the charging method is similar to ordinary SMS, and is generally calculated according to the number of bytes sent. In general, sending an EMS containing a simple picture is charged according to 2 ~ 3 ordinary short messages.
