CHONGQING (CQNEWS) -- Qianjiang Crisp Red Plum is a bright pearl among Chongqing Qianjiang fruits. However, for a long time, limited by inconvenient transportation, it has a small sales radiation radius and limited product value. On August 23, the “Qianjiang Crisp Red Plum” Fruit Aviation Special Route was officially launched. It is expected that 1,600 boxes of “Qianjiang Crisp Red Plums” will be quickly sent to major cities across the country within 24 hours through the civil aviation.

It is understood that Qianjiang Branch of China Post Group Corporation has opened a temporary mail road to open up transportation nodes, and provided special truck for orchards to realize “zero-distance receipt and mailing”. Qianjiang Airport Company has formulated a special guarantee plan, and actively linked Chongqing Airport Ground Service Company and China Express Airlines in terms of cabin space and freight support to realize the aviation acceleration plan of Qianjiang Crisp Red Plums from “branch” to “table”.

Qianjiang, located in Wuling Mountain Area, has crisp plum planting area of 60,000 mu, annual output of 4,000 tons, and annual output value of 32 million yuan, covering more than 10,000 farmers in 28 townships and sub-districts. In 2018, through the review by the former State Administration for Industry and Commerce, it obtained “Qianjiang Crisp Red Plum” Geographical Indication Certification Trademark and the Title of “Township of China Crisp Red Plums” by China Fruit Marketing Association.

It is reported that Qianjiang Wulingshan Airport is the “Wuling Mountain Area Important Aviation Gateway and Tourism Transit Port” positioned by the State Council and Chongqing Municipality. Since 2010, it has opened flights to Beijing Capital, Shanghai Pudong, Guangzhou, Kunming, Chongqing, Lhasa, Hefei and other places, providing quality air transport services for people in Wuling Mountain Area, and being an air bridge for the export of high-quality agricultural products in the region.

The relevant person in charge of Qianjiang Airport said that the next step is to give full play to the advantages of “trunk and branch linkage” of Qianjiang Airport and Jiangbei International Airport, and sell more high-quality agricultural products throughout the country and even around the world by air, and strive to make each route of Qianjiang Airport become a gold line to help farmers get rich.
