To thoroughly implement the guiding principles of General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speeches and instructions on Hunan Province, Hunan is actively integrating into and contributing to China's new development paradigm. Leveraging the strategic positioning of the Changsha–Zhuzhou–Xiangtan National Comprehensive Logistics Hub and a national strategic hub for modern circulation, Hunan is accelerating the development of a modern logistics system featuring the integrated framework of "Corridors + Hubs + Networks."
At present, the China-Europe Railway Express (Changsha) has secured a position among China's leading international freight train services. Three national logistics hubs—land port, production-service, and airport logistics hubs—have formed a coordinated development pattern, creating strong synergies for regional logistics growth. Meanwhile, Changsha is advancing urban renewal through the spatial development strategy of "integrating southward, connecting northward, expanding westward, extending eastward, and optimizing the urban core," while accelerating the construction of its "Four Ring Roads and Six Radial Expressways" network to further enhance the city's international competitiveness and modern urban quality.
Against this backdrop, in order to align with major national development strategies, attract high-quality global resources, facilitate international logistics connectivity, and foster world-class logistics and supply chain service providers, the 2026 International Modern Logistics & Transportation (Changsha) Expo will be held from November 13 to 15, 2026, at the Changsha International Convention and Exhibition Center.
Under the theme "Connecting the World Through Logistics Hubs · Driving the Future with Logistics," the Expo will closely align with China's Transport Power Strategy and Hunan Province's "Three Highs and Four News" development strategy. Focusing on the integrated development of rail, waterway, air, and highway transportation networks, the event will comprehensively showcase the multimodal transportation capabilities of the China-Europe Railway Express (Changsha) Consolidation Center, the Xiangjiang Golden Waterway, the Changsha Huanghua International Airport Hub, and the Changsha–Zhuzhou–Xiangtan Inland Port Cluster.
The Expo will also promote the intelligent upgrading of logistics equipment, the large-scale deployment of green transportation capacity, and the commercial application of innovative "Single Waybill" (One-Document Transport) solutions, accelerating the transition from pilot projects to widespread industry adoption.
The exhibition will feature three themed exhibition halls and fifteen immersive live demonstration zones, covering the entire logistics industry value chain, including:
Smart and green logistics equipment; Comprehensive transportation and supply chain services; New energy commercial vehicles; and Low-altitude logistics and related emerging industries.
In parallel with the exhibition, a Main Forum and approximately 10 specialized parallel forums and business matchmaking sessions will be organized, bringing together government agencies, industry leaders, experts, and global enterprises to explore new opportunities for innovation, collaboration, and sustainable development in the logistics and transportation sectors.
