BEIJING, Sept. 25 (Xinhua) — Business talks were held between enterprises from Heihe and Jinhua, east China's Zhejiang Province, in Heihe, northeast China, on Sept. 23. The talks were titled "Heilongjiang and Zhejiang Provinces Join Forces to Enter International Markets."
According to the Heilongjiang Provincial Government website, the event aimed to deepen cooperation between businesses in the two cities and Russia, as well as to create an effective and practical platform for joint efforts to develop international markets. The meeting was attended by approximately 60 representatives of businesses from both cities and Russian businessmen.
As a key hub for China's opening up to Russia, Heihe is located opposite Blagoveshchensk, the third-largest city in the Russian Far East, and offers unique advantages for trade with Russia. Last year, Heihe's trade volume with Russia exceeded 30 billion yuan, an increase of 15.9 percent and accounting for 96.8 percent of the city's total imports and exports.
Heihe has now established a system of cooperation with Russia focused on energy imports and agricultural and engineering exports. Last year, engineering exports totaled 5.05 billion yuan (up 17.6 percent), while agricultural exports totaled 560 million yuan (up 100.5 percent).
Jinhua boasts a vibrant private economy and a strong industrial base, occupying a key position in the global small-commodity trade market. Representatives from over 20 high-quality Jinhua companies attended the talks, drawn by Heihe's unique advantages and favorable policies, hoping to leverage this opportunity to deepen cooperation with Russia.
The free trade zone's preferential policies and development opportunities were presented in detail during the talks. Companies from both cities reached a number of cooperation agreements and signed various contracts. Participants noted that the meeting allowed them to better understand Heihe's strengths, the political environment, and market demand, laying a solid foundation for future activities in import and export, cross-border e-commerce, and cooperation with Russia.
