Abstract

With the further development of the new round of urbanization in China, the logistics development of “third and fourth-class cities” is facing an important opportunity; but the impact of financial crisis hampered further development of industry in “third and fourth-class cities”. Combining the urbanization with the marching of the general merchandise industry and e-commerce towards “third and fourth-class cities”, this paper analyzes the logistics development opportunities and challenges based on SRCT. And put forward relevant countermeasures and suggestions to promote the coordinated development of the logistics industry of “third and fourth-class cities” and city economy under the market resource constraint.
