The ongoing second China International Import Exposition (CIIE) is providing an opportunity for Chinese companies to further cooperate with their international counterparts.
Since the expo opened on Tuesday in Shanghai, many Chinese companies have inked cooperation deals with enterprises from the rest of the world in a further step to promote global business connection.
The State Development and Investment Corporation (SDIC), one of the major state-owned investment holding companies in China, is one of the Chinese enterprises having a very productive time at this year's import expo. So far it has announced multiple deals with more than 20 companies from 18 countries.
Under the deals, the SDIC is committed to buying products such as corn, barley, seafood, cashew, cotton, yarn and industrial salt from countries like Indonesia, Spain and Uruguay.
Many of the companies, such as Olam - a leading food and agri-business company in the world, were present at the expo last year, and this year they came back in the hope of enhancing cooperation with their Chinese partners.
"Last year we had signed close to 35,000 metric tons, which we have executed completely during the year. And this time we are signing close to 40,000 metric tons," said Himanshu Chaturvedi, head of the China headquarters of Olam which began operations in China in 2003.
For the SDIC and its brand new partners, the CIIE is proving to be a useful platform to boost business and improve people's livelihoods in their countries.
"Normally every country usually is more interested in exports, but China is interested in imports also. So we feel very confident (of our future relationship). Hopefully China will keep on continuing with this and our volume into China will increase," said Nadeem Riaz, managing director of Riaz Textile Mills in Pakistan.
According to SDIC's chairman, Zhang Zhaogang, through CIIE, China is sending out a message that it will further open its door to the world.
