Shanghai gears up for the 4th CIIE
Shanghai is gearing up for the upcoming China International Import Expo scheduled to be held in China's financial center from Nov 5-10.
As world's first national level expo with imports as its theme, CIIE has witnessed three years of fruitful achievements, expansion and highlights.
Many exhibitors and purchasers have become old friends by attending the event each year, while newcomers are continuously joining in as China opens its doors wider.
This year's CIIE is expected to attract nearly 3,000 business exhibitors from 127 countries and regions with a total of 58 countries and three international organizations participating in the country exhibition.
Around 39 trading groups and 599 subgroups have been drawn to the fourth CIIE for professional procurement.
The total exhibition area of this year's CIIE will reach 366,000 square meters, 6,000 square meters larger than that of last year.
Jinbao, the panda mascot of the China International Import Expo, as well as all the staff members preparing for the event are ready to welcome guests from home and abroad.
