Foreign Ministry: Ninth China International Import Expo Sets New Records for Exhibitors, Exhibition Area and Intended Turnover
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning briefed the regular press conference on November 13 on the close of the ninth China International Import Expo (CIIE) in Shanghai: the expo closed on November 10 with 4,142 exhibitors, more than 440,000 square meters of exhibition area and intended turnover of $85.45 billion on a one-year basis, up 2.3 percent from the previous edition, all setting new records, and 143 companies and institutions have already signed up for the next edition.
Mao said China is the world's second-largest consumer and import market and has hosted the CIIE for nine consecutive years, keeping its door open to share development opportunities with the world; the strong turnout of foreign companies, she said, is a vote of confidence in the Chinese market.
Asked what makes the Chinese market attractive, Mao said its appeal comes from both the size and potential of the market and China's institutional strengths, adding that stable policy expectations, a continually improving business environment and stronger legal protections are the most effective reassurance for foreign companies.
Mao said China will continue to host the CIIE well, uphold openness and win-win cooperation, and share the opportunities of its mega-market with all countries. The CIIE is a national-level, import-themed expo hosted by China and held each year at the National Exhibition and Convention Center in Shanghai, where foreign companies and institutions showcase goods and services to Chinese buyers.
