Shandong Province is China’s second most populous province with nearly 100 million residents, and the area is seeing remarkable economic growth, achieving a growth rate of 3.6% in 2020 and anticipating a rate of 6% or higher in 2021. The provincial capital, Jinan, hosts a cluster of IT, medical/pharmaceutical and heavy equipment companies, and there is rising demand for logistics services that satisfy industry-specific needs.
