In 2023, the average delivery time of courier companies in key regions in China was shortened by more than two hours to 56.42 hours. Between 2020 and 2022, express delivery services in the country became significantly slower due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent travel restrictions. Every year, the regulatory authorities in China conduct large-scale online surveys and random tests to monitor the service of the country's major courier companies.
