The opening ceremony for the service interface of the North East Asia Logistics-Net, the first international logistics information sharing and cooperation system in the world, was held in east China's Hangzhou on Dec. 6, 2011.

With the opening of the interface, China, Japan and South Korea have officially realized information sharing regarding the dynamic conditions of containers and container ships in the three pilot ports of the Ningbo-Zhoushan Port, Tokyo-Yokohama Port and the Port of Busan.

COSCO Logistics is one of the enterprises participating in this pilot project. Before the project, COSCO Logistics had to establish electronic data exchange interfaces with the Ningbo-Zhoushan Port, Tokyo-Yokohama Port and the Port of Busan to master the dynamic conditions of the ships.

After the service interface was opened, COSCO Logistics will be able to link up with the three ports and get information as to the conditions of the ships and containers staying in the ports by simply adjusting their original interfaces.

Ship agencies, goods agencies, enterprises and clients using this platform will also be able to establish information sharing links directly with the ports.
