Suzhou, which is adjacent to Shanghai, combines historic charm and a 21st century economy. It is hailed as the Venice of the East. With its rapid economic development, Suzhou is ranked as one of China’s top ten economies, second only to Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, and second in East China.

Waterways play an important role in Suzhou’s logistics and distribution sector. Suzhou Port joins Shanghai Port, the world’s largest port in terms of container throughput and cargo throughput, to become the only inland port among the top 10 ports in China.

It boasts well-developed 3C electronics, IT, healthcare and new energy industries. As an early pioneer in adopting the industrial park model for development, Suzhou is robust in attracting investment to its industrial parks. Suzhou is also an optimal investment destination for Fortune 500 companies.

Prologis owns and operates logistics and distribution facilities in Suzhou.
