District readies for 2019 import fair
Minhang has started preparatory work for the second China International Import Expo in November.
The district formed five teams and offices for urban management, environment, traffic security, reception and promotion.
More than half of the key foreign companies in the district are planning to participate in the expo.
The district is also designing 13 side trips for expo participants to view its cultural, educational and business environment.
The district will improve the decorative lighting installed last year in a way that highlights local features.
The exposition will run on November 5-10.
Last year, Minhang District held 12 investment and trade promotion events during the first China International Import Expo, playing a big part in the success of the event.
Expo racked up deals for intended purchases of goods and services totaling US$57.83 billion, according to Sun Chenghai, a deputy director of the event.
About 30 companies in Minhang held in-depth talks with foreign participants. In addition, more than 100 South Korean enterprises attended a conference held in the Caohejing High-Tech Industrial Park, which was the biggest event sponsored by the district.
The district also fielded a trading union comprised of 913 enterprises and 5,461 dealers covering a wide range of industries to promote deals inked during expo.
The value of Minhang exports and imports reached 18.14 trillion yuan in 2017, ranking third in the city. There are more than 7,300 registered foreign-invested companies in the district, or 6 percent of all companies. They contribute 66 percent of gross domestic product and create many job opportunities.
