On August 19, 2025, the CR Logistics × GKE LME Hong Kong Delivery Warehouse was officially inaugurated. As one of the first key delivery companies for the LME Hong Kong warehouse, Mr. Li Zhihua, President of Eagle Metal, was honored to be invited to attend this inauguration ceremony.
The official operation of the LME Hong Kong Delivery Warehouse strengthens Hong Kong’s position as an Asian metals hub, enabling the practical implementation of its function as an LME delivery location. This will not only enhance the efficiency of metal resource allocation in the Asia-Pacific region but also, through LME’s strictly regulated warehousing and delivery system, promote deeper integration of the global metals market, establishing it as a critical bridge connecting China with the global marketplace.
By leveraging the Hong Kong platform for metal pricing and delivery, Eagle Metal can directly serve the physical delivery needs of metal trading in the Asia-Pacific region. The launch of the LME Hong Kong delivery warehouse shortens the metal delivery cycle within the Asian time zone (for example, land transport from the Yangtze River Delta to Hong Kong takes only a few hours), reduces logistics costs, and helps balance domestic and international price differentials through inventory adjustments, thereby enhancing market liquidity. Complementing the Shanghai Futures Exchange, it promotes the exploration of a “Shanghai-Hong Kong Connect”-style warehouse receipt mutual recognition mechanism, which is conducive to further strengthening enterprises’ strategic position in international commodity trade.
Eagle Metal’s close collaboration with the LME Hong Kong delivery warehouse not only demonstrates our deep integration with the LME system but also strengthens our competitive edge in the non-ferrous metals trading sector. Leveraging Hong Kong’s status as an international financial, shipping, and trade hub, we are better positioned to bridge China’s vast domestic metal consumption market with the global pricing system.
Looking ahead, we will adhere to our consistent principle of customer-centricity, providing clients with more flexible solutions for warehouse receipt financing, cross-border delivery, and risk management. Eagle Metal will also continue to strengthen strategic cooperation with the **LME**, global mining giants, and upstream and downstream partners, working together to explore a promising future for global non-ferrous metals trade!
