China Supply Chain Expo in Beijing: A New Strategy Targeting Developing Nations
US-China Trade War Shapes Supply Chain Focus
China's upcoming China International Supply Chain Expo, scheduled from November 26 in Beijing, underscores a strategic pivot to engage with least-developed countries in response to the escalating US-China trade war. The China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT) expects over 600 companies to participate, marking a significant increase from last year's inaugural event.
Engaging Developing Nations
- Participation from nearly 190 foreign companies, with a focus on African nations
- Support for exhibitors from the African Union, including Ethiopia and Ghana
According to Yu Yi, head of CCPIT, the expo aims to facilitate networking and opportunities for developing nations, particularly during a time when global trade dynamics are shifting.
Chinese Companies Showcase Advanced Manufacturing
In addition to reopening connections with developing economies, the expo will spotlight China's advanced manufacturing sector. Notable exhibitors this year include Rio Tinto Group and Bosch, showcasing innovations in clean energy and digital technology, both vital in establishing competitive supply chains.
