Jinan, the capital of Shandong Province, is an economic hub to the south of the Bohai Economic Rim and serves as a hub for railroads, highways and airlines in Shandong Province.

Jinan is one of the foremost industrial cities in China, whose six leading industries, such as electronic information, transportation equipment, home appliances, machinery manufacturing, bio-engineering, and textile and garments, play a pivotal role in the country. Jinan ranks fourth in China in terms of the aggregate economic output of its IT industry, thanks to its flourishing high-tech and information industries. The rapid growth of online retailing driven by consumption upgrading in recent years, coupled with an accelerating industrial development, has further swelled the demand for high-performance logistics and warehousing facilities.
