2011年我国的粗钢产量接近7亿吨,铁矿石原矿产量超过12亿吨。然而中铁协统计数据显示,2011年国内大中型钢铁企业实现利润875.3亿元,同比下降4.51%;销售利润率为2.42%,同比下降0.59%。因此,控制物流成本、开辟钢铁行业新的利润增长点是新形势下的必然选择。 In 2011, China’s crude steel production was close to 700 million tons, and the output of iron ore ore exceeded 1.2 billion tons. However, according to the statistics of China Railway Association, domestic large and medium-sized iron and steel enterprises realized a profit of 87.53 billion yuan in 2011, down 4.51% from the same period of last year. The sales profit margin was 2.42%, down 0.59% from the same period of last year. Therefore, the control of logistics costs, open up new profit growth point in the steel industry is an inevitable choice under the new situation.
