In 2009, the competition in Chinese warehousing industry was intense. Warehousing enterprises were generally of small scale and low profit. The market assumed low concentration and placed low entry barriers. By contrast, the market exit barrier was high due to the specificity of assets and the national restrictive policies.
In 2009, the warehousing industry showed uneven development in different regions of China. Most warehousing businesses concentrated in eastern areas, especially the Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta. The market share in Northeast China was the lowest with less than 10%. The development of warehousing in Central and West China was similar. The unbalanced regional development of the warehousing industry is closely related to the unbalanced development of the national economy.
The warehousing industry in Chinese eastern areas takes a leading position in the whole industry of China. It ranks the Top in China in employee volume, total output value and operational efficiency. Moreover, it will maintain the dominant status for a long period in the future.
In 2009, the value-added service still dominated Chinese warehousing industry, of which the revenue accounted for 57% of the total revenue of the warehousing industry.

The construction of new types of logistics centers and logistics parks is booming. Some international giants of warehousing estate are accelerating the construction of logistics network in China. Meanwhile, some domestic-funded and private enterprises have also established the development objectives and plans and present outstanding development trend. The warehousing estate industry has broad development prospect. However, it is also confronted with threats like obsolete equipment, low quality, limited land resource and large-scale entry of foreign logistics estate giants.
In 2009, the supply in Chinese warehousing industry was increased. The supply structure underwent obvious changes and value-added businesses took the dominant position. The proportion of foreign logistics giants in Chinese warehousing market also rose continuously. Meanwhile, the demand in the warehousing industry also enjoyed progressive growth.
