With the opening of Port A of Hualong Toll Station in Chengdu’s Tianfu New Area, customers at Prologis’ Chengdu Longquan Logistics Center will be able to directly reach Chengdu Tianfu International Airport Expressway within 5 minutes, shaving at least 30 minutes off of every individual delivery.
The opening of Hualong Port A marks a further improvement to the interconnected transportation network around the Tianfu Airport. The upgrade significantly enhances traffic efficiency and further underscores the strategic location of the Prologis logistics center.
Previously, customer distribution vehicles that set out from the logistics center had to take the frequently congested Chenglong Avenue to enter the ring expressway, which often frequently resulted in travels times of more than an hour to reach the city. Now it takes 5 minutes to drive onto the airport expressway from Hualong Port A before reaching the ring expressway. The required travel time to the urban area has been shortened by about 30 minutes, significantly reducing the overall distribution time and freight cost of customers.
With geographical advantages, customers find support in improving their network of warehousing facilities
The Tianfu Airport and Shuangliu International Airport are working to grow into international distribution centers for air cargo. Owing to their strong ability to gather resources, the two airports are playing a crucial role in helping to promote the development of the manufacturing and logistics industries in their surrounding areas.
Located in the Chengdu Economic and Technological Development Zone, the Prologis logistics center consists of seven double-storey warehouses with a total area of over 262,400 square meters. It is a mere 2 km drive from the Tianfu Airport and a 33 km drive from the Shuangliu Airport. Adjacent to several expressways, the park is advantageously located. As an important logistics hub node that connects the two airports and covers the Chengdu-Chongqing area, the park is able to support customers from different industries to improve their warehousing networks in the southwest region.
The Prologis logistics center currently offers state-of-the-art logistics infrastructure and value-added services to customers across a wide range of industries, such as e-commerce, retail, FMCG, food, and third-party logistics. By providing exceptional support to customers, the center helps to elevate supply chain efficiency.
Dedicated logistics infrastructure platform facilitates the integration of the local manufacturing industry and the service industry
The Chengdu Economic Development Zone is home to the Prologis Chengdu Longquan Logistics Center, a significant manufacturing hub in China which is known for having a strong focus on the automotive industry. The area promotes synergies of resource elements across both the industrial and value chains. Premier logistics parks like the Prologis logistics center play an important role in gathering resources and facilitating industrial upgrades.
Relying on the strong customer resources available at the logistics center, with its superior transportation conditions and high-standard first-class infrastructure, has attracted the supply chain companies of globally renowned automobile brands to set up operations here. Moreover, the center is helping to support leading e-commerce platforms and third-party logistics customers in improving their logistics and warehousing networks in Chengdu and Chongqing. This is how the center works to upgrade and diversify local industries.

It has established an extensive infrastructure network spanning crucial logistics hubs and city centers throughout the country. While enabling its customers to enhance their supply chain networks, Prologis China also supports the diversified growth of industries in the regions and cities where it operates, thereby promoting the integration and transformation of the local manufacturing and service industry.
