今天,2011年11月11日,在網(wǎng)絡(luò)上被人戲稱為世紀(jì)光棍節(jié),或者這一天是讓那些至今還單身的朋友們愁苦的日子,但同樣愁苦的是為電商光棍節(jié)大戰(zhàn)送貨的快遞們!
據(jù)測(cè)算,今年“光棍節(jié)”期間,快遞的業(yè)務(wù)量單日增幅將在20%以上,僅申通一家就預(yù)計(jì)每天的增量或達(dá)50萬(wàn)—60萬(wàn)單,總量預(yù)計(jì)將達(dá)到370萬(wàn)單—380萬(wàn)單。制約國(guó)內(nèi)電子商務(wù)市場(chǎng)發(fā)展的一大瓶頸,就是快遞變慢遞,貨物不能按時(shí)到達(dá),甚至出現(xiàn)丟貨現(xiàn)象,讓電商與消費(fèi)者頗為頭疼。此次光棍節(jié)狂歡,更是讓網(wǎng)購(gòu)市場(chǎng)的物流供應(yīng)鏈遭遇大考。

世貿(mào)組織總干事帕斯卡爾·拉米當(dāng)天向俄羅斯代表團(tuán)贈(zèng)送了一件球衫,上書(shū)“歡迎加入WTO”,俄入世談判的龐大工作組解散前獲贈(zèng)的球衫上則寫(xiě)著“功成身退”。
