Celebrating “Qingdao Entrepreneur Day”

On November 1st, with the arrival of the fourth official “Qingdao Entrepreneur Day,” Qingdao once again hosted a variety of events to celebrate entrepreneurs, offering holiday greetings and thanking them for their contributions to the city’s development.

The Chairman of HRL was invited to attend the “2024 Qingdao Dialogue on Promoting Entrepreneurial Spirit” and celebrate “Qingdao Entrepreneur Day” with peers from various fields. We deeply understand that every step of a company’s growth depends on a favorable business environment and the support from all sectors of society.

The dialogue was held under the theme “Strengthening Confidence to Lead, Innovating and Working for Development.” It included discussions on “Promoting Entrepreneurial Spirit,” sharing “Excellent Case Studies,” and deeper explorations by company representatives who summarized entrepreneurial and innovation experiences, reflected on industrial deepening reforms and development, and discussed entrepreneurial spirit and the development of new productive forces.

As the Chairman of HRL International Logistics Co., Ltd., Ms. Huang Jingyi advocates the company’s philosophy of “Leading for You” and has led her team to win the title of “Best Specialized Logistics Company” for three consecutive years. HRL has also ranked among the top 100 logistics brands in China by brand value.

HRL, as a local enterprise deeply rooted in Qingdao, has been working in international trade and logistics for nearly thirty years. From its beginnings as an international freight forwarder, HRL has expanded its operations to include upstream and downstream services, becoming a third-party logistics provider with capabilities in multimodal transportation (land, sea, air, rail), integrated warehouse management, and distribution services. Its efficient service network now spans the globe, supported by an advanced digital information system that fully integrates company and societal logistics resources to provide comprehensive logistics and value-added services for clients. HRL currently has seven subsidiaries in key domestic port and railway hub cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Shenzhen. It also has 15 overseas subsidiaries and warehouses in countries such as the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, Tanzania, and the Democratic Republic of Congo. The company owns 270,000 square meters of domestic warehouse space, and its global agent network covers over 95% of the world.

“The sunlight remains pure, the mountains and rivers still shine brightly. Let us shine, rather than be illuminated.” This statement is not only a vision for the future but also a profound understanding of the entrepreneurial spirit. As an outstanding company in the logistics industry, we continuously explore and innovate on the path of pursuing our dreams, supporting the global development of Chinese brands, and finding our own light in a constantly changing market.
