Abstract
Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region, as one of the most robust regions in China with greatest potential, is the third growth pole after Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta. In 2014, the policy of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Coordinated Development became a major national strategy, instilling new dynamics into the region’s economic and social development. Owing to its considerable economic scale and well-developed open economic system, the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region has generated huge logistic demands which resulted in a most developed logistic industry. The Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Coordinated Development Strategy will provide superb opportunities for logistic development in the region while having far-reaching influence on it.
