SHANGHAI, Aug. 6, 2020 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/--

The third China International Import Expo, to be held as scheduled at the

National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai) in November, features a

larger planned business exhibition space and is set to wow participants with

more amazing offerings.

"The third CIIE is slated to be held in Shanghai from Nov 5 to 10, and

preparations for the expo are all well underway," said Sun Chenghai, deputy

director-general of the CIIE Bureau at a briefing last Friday.

According to Sun, the focus of current preparations for the third CIIE has

shifted from attracting exhibitors to drawing in buyers and organizing the

expo. Strong progress has been made.

Undamped passion

The planned business exhibition space for the third CIIE spans 360,000 square

meters, 60,000 sq m larger than the planned business exhibition area of last

year and up by 20 percent.

The business exhibition area will be divided into six sections displaying food

and agricultural products, automobiles, the intelligent industry and

information technology, consumer goods, medical equipment and healthcare

products, as well as trade in services.

The number of Fortune 500 companies and industry-leading companies attending

the third CIIE almost equals that of the first and second edition, the CIIE

Bureau said.

A greater number of policies than last year have been released and is expected

to attract and better serve exhibitors and buyers. The General Administration

of Customs recently launched a slew of supporting policies to facilitate the

customs clearance of attendees at the expo.

Improved services for buyers

More targeted measures to attract buyers have been taken. Based on transaction,

customs clearance and credit data from the previous expos, organizers

identified and sent invitations to 40,000 import companies. Nine roadshows to

attract buyers have also been organized.
