This year marks the 10th anniversary of the initiative of jointly building the "the Belt and Road". Over the past decade, the joint construction of the "the Belt and Road" has gone deep and solid step by step, and yielded fruitful results. By the middle of February this year, China had signed more than 200 cooperation documents with 151 countries and 32 international organizations to jointly build the "the Belt and Road".

In the process of jointly building the "the Belt and Road", unimpeded trade is an important part. Data shows that from 2013 to 2022, the volume of goods trade between China and countries along the "the Belt and Road" has expanded from US $1.04 trillion to US $2.07 trillion, nearly doubling, with an average annual growth of 8%. In 2022, the scale of import and export trade between China and the countries along the "the Belt and Road" will reach a record high, accounting for 32.9% of China's total international trade, up 7.9 percentage points from 2013.

Standing at a new starting point, the 133rd Canton Fair continued to provide high-quality services to jointly build the "the Belt and Road". In an interview with a reporter, several foreign trade enterprise leaders who participated in the exhibition believed that the joint construction of the "the Belt and Road" has created an unprecedented opportunity for Chinese enterprises to better "go global", and the matchmaking of the Canton Fair has also provided an opportunity not to be missed for enterprises to explore the markets along the line. They will firmly grasp the opportunity and continue to contribute more "Made in China" power to countries along the line.

Wide market with infinite charm

Huida Sanitary Ware Co., Ltd. is an "old Guangjiao" company that has participated in multiple sessions of the Canton Fair. According to Zhang Chao, the person in charge of the company, Huida Sanitary Ware currently provides high-quality products and services to customers in more than 70 countries and regions around the world, including many countries along the "the Belt and Road". "We focus on the layout of markets along the line, continue to innovate marketing methods, and constantly improve brand influence and market share in the 'the Belt and Road' market," Zhang Chao told reporters.

"This Canton Fair has brought us a lot. In particular, we once again felt the enthusiasm of customers from countries along the" the Belt and Road ", and the number of orders the company negotiated with them exceeded expectations." Zhang Chao revealed his joy in his words.

For the first time participating in the Canton Fair, Zhongshan Aotepu Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. achieved some success. At this Canton Fair, AOTP Optoelectronics negotiated cooperation with old customers from Nigeria, South Africa, Zambia, Tanzania, the Philippines, Vietnam and other countries, and also met many new customers from countries along the "the Belt and Road".

"The company focused on domestic trade at the initial stage of its establishment. In recent years, we have found that the market of countries along the the Belt and Road has great potential, which is a rare historical opportunity for the company's development. This time, we benefited a lot from the Canton Fair, which strengthened our belief that the company will continue to promote its market layout in countries along the road." Shi Zhen, the head of Optoelectronics, told reporters.

Shi Zhen said that at present, AOTP Optoelectronics has stable customers in some countries along the "the Belt and Road", and has successively set up branches in several countries along the line. In 2017, we established our first overseas branch in Kenya and subsequently established branches in countries such as Nigeria. Now we plan to also establish a branch in South Africa

Like the two enterprises mentioned above, Ningbo Catmark Intelligent Kitchenware Co., Ltd. also focuses on the markets of countries along the "the Belt and Road". In the past two years, the enormous potential for economic and trade development between China and Southeast Asian countries has become increasingly apparent. In addition, Southeast Asian countries have a well-developed tourism industry and relatively convenient transportation, which is suitable for the transportation and sales of our products. Therefore, we hope to further explore the Southeast Asian market while taking into account the European and American markets. "said Wu Yuping, General Manager of the company's International Business Unit.

'Made in China' wins reputation

At present, high-end, intelligent and green has become the trend of global manufacturing development. Chinese enterprises have also made greater efforts in the above aspects, creating a new business card of "Made in China" in countries along the "the Belt and Road".

Shaoxing Xinye Foreign Trade Co., Ltd., which has participated in the Canton Fair multiple times, mainly engages in clothing export business. Its products are exported to 20 countries and regions, with over 50 long-term customers and an annual export value of nearly 10 million US dollars.

In traditional concepts, the clothing industry belongs to labor-intensive industries. Regarding this, Yu Jiangang, the person in charge of Xinye Company, told reporters: In the increasingly fierce international competition, we realize that the previous approach of 'winning by quantity' is no longer suitable for the current international trade market environment. In recent years, we have pursued high-quality development, continuously adjusted our research and development and business strategies, fully utilizing the advantages of China's complete range of industries and the deep advantages of the clothing industry, and pursuing higher added value by improving product design, quality, and grade

For a long time, environmental protection has been a key concern of the international community. In recent years, the company has adopted green and recyclable raw materials in its production process, not only practicing the concept of sustainable development, but also making our products meet the requirements and standards of more countries, winning a broader market, "said Yu Jiangang.

With the deeply rooted concept of green environmental protection, new energy products have also ushered in unprecedented development opportunities. Zhejiang A.D. New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. is an enterprise in the field of green energy. At this Canton Fair, the company was again favored by many customers in countries along the the Belt and Road of international trade with a variety of high-quality products.

"With advanced automated production equipment, our company can provide 1.5GW of annual production capacity to meet the needs of different customers." Liang Jing, the relevant person in charge of the company, told reporters, "The joint construction of the the Belt and Road has brought us great convenience in developing photovoltaic emerging markets. In our new international trade markets, such as Nigeria, Morocco, Armenia and other countries, the company's sales have maintained rapid growth every year."

Advanced technology and high-quality products have also made AD New Energy highly trusted by customers. "Whenever we mention our company, overseas customers will give a thumbs up." Liang Jing further said, "In the future, we will continue to increase the development and investment in the markets of countries along the the Belt and Road, and strive to provide more and better new energy products for countries along the road."
