Shanghai is preparing to receive guests of the China International Import Expo, which is being held this year under the slogan “New Era and common future”, from November 5 to 10, 2024.
This event is the first import-focused exhibition at the national level in the world, which started in 2018 and has now reached its seventh session.
To highlight this distinguished global event, the Moroccan channel Aldar hosted Mr. William Lau, who is the head of the mission of the China International Import Expo “CIIE” to Morocco, where he revealed many points about this year’s session, especially that the Kingdom attaches great importance to the development of economic and trade relations with China.
In this context, William Lau said that he came to Morocco along with a very important delegation to promote the exhibition and invite Moroccan companies and platforms to participate in the seventh session, with the aim of developing existing partnerships between Moroccan and Chinese institutions and facilitating access to the Chinese market.
He added that this exhibition space consists of four poles, namely the Qatari pole, the trade pole, the hunshan Economic Forum, and the pole of institutions and international exchange activities .
As for the exhibition, it provides six exhibition spaces for food and agricultural products, consumer goods, automobiles, smart information technology, medical equipment and healthcare products, as well as trade and services, which are the six main topics of the exhibition . Besides, a special area has been allocated for startups focused on innovation products .
The Chinese delegation’s tour in Morocco aims to invite Moroccan companies and institutions to participate in this global event. In this regard, many meetings were scheduled with commercial institutions, businessmen, investment and export agencies in Morocco and invited them to participate, especially small and emerging companies.
According to William Lau, one of the most important products that the exhibition management wants to participate in is related to companies that market argan oil products because it is a very popular material in China and the Chinese are rushing to buy it, he said, along with many local Moroccan products to market in the Chinese market.
Faced with this growing domestic demand in China, Moroccan companies should seize the opportunity and explore the Chinese market through the China International Import Expo.
For her part, Ms. Ken Young, an official at the Exhibition, welcomed all participants from all over the world, especially Morocco, and stressed that the Exhibition Management conducts activities every year to help exhibitors find customers in their sectors and activities, and thousands of journalists are called to help companies in marketing their brands at a large conference on the sidelines of the exhibition .
The events of the seventh edition of the China International Import Expo will be held from November 5 to 10, 2024 in Shanghai, China, and the exhibition will witness the participation of more than 128 countries around the world, and the participation of 500 exhibitors around the world from leading institutions in their industry.
