Last Friday, news came from the Third China International Import Expo that a total of 289 enterprises of the Jiangbei Trading Group of Ningbo had registered participating in the expo. In addition, the project of the Zhejiang Representative Office of Ukrainian Chamber of Commerce and Industry and cross border e-commerce export logistics project will land in Jiangbei as is learnt from the investment docking conference and signing ceremony of major projects between Ningbo and “One Belt One Road” Initiative supporting countries, which was one of the activities held during the China International Import Expo. This will further promote Jiangbei to implement the “One Belt One Road” Initiative and develop platforms to cooperate and exchange ideas with Central and Eastern European countries. Jiangbei is actively making full use of the spillover effect of the China International Import Expo and giving full play to its role as a “fresh force” in the field of foreign trade.

In the morning of last Friday, the first group of buyers from the Jiangbei Trading Group arrived at the scene of the CIIE. “First, I’d like to go and visit some booths in the medical device exhibition area, and then go to the automation exhibition area to have a look…” Ling Feng with the Ningbo Yiweiou New Materials Co., Ltd. said, preparing in advance before coming to visit the expo. Yiweiou applies to be a buyer of the expo for the first time, “We’re mainly engaged in front-end medical devices. We come to the expo to learn about the latest products and advanced technologies in our industry.” As soon as he entered the exhibition hall, Ling Feng and several other persons in charge went straight to the exhibition hall where the medical equipment was exhibited, “We hope that we can have in-depth exchanges with well-known enterprises on latest products and most advanced technologies in the field of equipment manufacturing.”

Zhang Dongdong with the Ningbo Jieou Enterprise Management Consulting Co., Ltd. mainly focuses on the commodity exhibition area. As soon as he arrived in the exhibition area, he took photos and communicated with exhibitors, and he also replied in WeChat groups from time to time. “This is the third time that I participate in the expo on behalf of the China (Ningbo) Central and Eastern Europe Youth Innovation Center. We have come here with the intention of the center.” Zhang Dongdong said, “Most of the settled enterprises are more concerned about the products of daily necessities and cosmetics. We play a central role as a platform to help enterprises to join the expo and collect relevant information for their reference and selection.”
