Flash-express shows way to biz prosperity
China DailyA staff member prepares orders at a Feixiang Convenience Store in Harbin, Heilongjiang province. Each day, as this message gets played repeatedly on a loudspeaker, staff members at Feixiang Convenience Store in Harbin, Heilongjiang province, busy themselves, packing commodities according to their serial numbers and waiting for the delivery partners to pick them up. Teaming up with a childhood friend, 35-year-old Sun Zhang opened their first flash-express warehouse — an emerging business model for instant retail delivery — in the ice and snow city in March last year, and named it Feixiang. China's leading online delivery platform Meituan began the flash-express warehouse in 2020, mainly focusing on fast-moving consumer goods and general merchandise. "With the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, customers urgently needed a shopping model where they could place an order one day and pick up the goods from nearby convenience stores the next day," said Sun.
