Minsk, November 6 (Xinhua) — The China International Import Expo (CIIE) is one of the most important tools China uses to demonstrate openness and, in practice, enable countries to tap into the Chinese market. Sergei Vergeichik, an analyst at the Belarusian Institute for Strategic Studies (BISS), explained this in an exclusive interview with Xinhua in Minsk.

"It's no secret that China has developed into a very capacious market, which many countries want to enter," noted S. Vergeichik, emphasizing that China is not only developing itself but also offering development opportunities to its partners.

The expert noted that Belarus is also interested in promoting its products in the Chinese market. "Belarus is entering into economic competition with other global players for a place in the Chinese market in its traditional exports, such as food and timber products. All Eurasian countries, including Belarus, have the opportunity to prove their competitiveness and enter the large Chinese market. Moreover, this process is mutually beneficial," he explained.

S. Vergeichik also emphasized that Chinese-Belarusian relations have reached their highest level. "But I must add that they have reached their highest level since the establishment of diplomatic relations. This does not mean that we should limit ourselves in any way and not move forward," he noted.

According to S. Vergeichik, Belarus and China must develop traditional areas while simultaneously moving forward and exploring new vectors. "At the same time, we need to increase bilateral trade. China has a large market, and Belarusian export potential is great," the BISI analyst said.

The 8th China International Import Expo (CIIE) is taking place from November 5th to 10th in Shanghai. The exhibition once again brings together exhibitors from around the world. This year, both regular participants and new partners are eager to catch the "CIIE high-speed train," hoping to take advantage of the opportunities offered by the vast Chinese market.

Swiss elevator manufacturer Schindler Group entered the Chinese market in 1980 and has continued to expand and deepen its presence in the country for 45 years. "CIIE is a truly significant platform. We are extremely honored to have the opportunity to present our products and convey our brand philosophy here," said Meinolf Pohle, CEO of Schindler China. He noted that the company will be showcasing new products at the exhibition this year and plans to actively participate in CIIE events in various ways.

Panasonic Corporation, a regular participant in the CIIE for the past eight years, always views the expo as an important platform for announcing its corporate strategy and development directions. This year, Panasonic's exhibition booth covered 900 square meters, making it one of the largest in the consumer goods zone. Tetsuro Homma, Global Vice President of Panasonic Holdings Group and Chairman of the Japan Chamber of Commerce in China, said that, amid the serious challenges facing the global trading system and order, China's hosting of the CIIE year after year demonstrates its commitment to an open and stable global trading system. "This gives us great confidence, and actively participating in the expo is our duty."

Penfolds, part of the Australian Treasury Wine Estates group, is participating in the CIIE for the sixth time this year. "China is Penfolds' largest market," said the brand's managing director, Tom King. He explained that the CIIE serves as an important platform for promoting trade, investment, and global cooperation, providing Penfolds with a valuable opportunity to directly enter the vast Chinese market.

This year, Austrian company Zotter Schokolade will showcase 50 new products at the exhibition, as well as present a new product line. Acting CEO Julia Zotter noted that, amid growing uncertainty in the global economy, Zotter attaches particular importance to the Chinese market. "CIIE is a wonderful opportunity to showcase our products to Chinese consumers."

According to Federico Pasini, Chief Operating Officer of the Italian-Chinese Business Council Foundation (ICCF), approximately 70 Italian companies will participate in this year's exhibition, hoping to expand their presence in the Chinese market and identify new opportunities for cooperation. He believes that China is actively promoting international cooperation, focusing on technology and innovation, which opens up opportunities for Italian companies operating in high-tech manufacturing, design, agricultural processing, and medicine.

Colombia, one of the guest countries at this year's Expo, will present over 20 companies in its national pavilion for a collective display. The exhibition will cover sectors such as coffee, cocoa, beef, processed agricultural products, and tourism. Ingrid Chavez, Executive Director of the Colombia-China Chamber of Commerce, stated that the Import Expo is not only a platform for stimulating trade but also an important opportunity to strengthen mutual trust and cooperation. "As a guest of honor, Colombia has a historic opportunity to showcase its national image and product advantages to China and the world," she emphasized.

According to Dario Regalado, President of the Ecuadorian-Chinese Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai, the CIIE constantly generates new business practices. Ecuadorian companies attend the exhibition not only to showcase their products but also to explore new concepts and technologies, identify investment and collaboration opportunities, and further contribute to the transformation and modernization of Ecuador's national industry.

Kupakwashe Midzi, a representative of the Zimbabwe Trade Promotion Council, noted that, as "old friends" of the CIIE, more than a dozen Zimbabwean enterprises from agriculture, mining, and other sectors will participate in this year's exhibition. He emphasized that "China's provision of 100% duty-free preferential treatment on all tariff lines for least developed countries and African countries that have established diplomatic relations with China not only demonstrates China's support and assistance to countries in the Global South but also reflects the country's determination to accelerate the formation of a new, more advanced open economic system."

The 8th China International Import Expo (CIIE) opened on November 5th. In anticipation of the event, Li Yongkai, CEO of Johnson Health Tech's China division, has an increasingly busy schedule. Three previous participations have generated orders, strengthened his reputation, and opened up opportunities for collaboration—all of which has him and his team eagerly anticipating their fourth trip to the expo.

The expansion of the company's booth space is clear evidence of this. "Our booth at CIIE has grown from its initial 216 square meters to 500, and this year it will be 600 square meters," explained Li Yunkai. By January 2025, the company had already fully launched its preparations for participation, creating dedicated teams for booth planning, product development, exhibit design, and distributor relations.

Founded in 1975, Johnson opened a factory in Shanghai quite early on. Recalling his first encounter with the CIIE, Li Yunkai said, "At the time, a friend of mine received a large order for the CIIE. I immediately turned to him for advice. He told me that the exhibition was not only an effective advertising platform but also capable of quickly expanding sales channels and increasing brand influence. So we decided to give it a try."

At the fifth CIIE, Johnson, participating for the first time, showcased three key product series: high-end commercial fitness equipment, convenient home fitness devices, as well as professional exercise equipment and smart massage chairs.

To Li Yongkai's surprise, Johnson not only "won the first bid," receiving letters of intent worth over 500 million yuan, but also signed a series of cooperation agreements with key partners such as the Shanghai Jiading District Government and Huawei.

Following its participation in the fifth CIIE, Johnson expanded its presence in the Greater China market. The company opened a comprehensive strategic office in Shanghai's Hongqiao Business District and plans to expand its product demonstration and testing facility, contributing to the creation of a "permanent CIIE site."

At the 8th CIIE, Johnson will unveil a new home fitness ecosystem powered by AI and IoT, and showcase a range of innovative health products and solutions.

"The China International Import Expo (CIIE) brings enormous opportunities to the world, further demonstrating China's strong commitment to further developing international trade and cooperation amidst rising global protectionism," Standard Chartered Managing Director Bill Winters told Zhongxin in Shanghai.

"For Standard Chartered, the CIIE is an excellent platform that not only allows us to fully demonstrate our business strategy, build extensive partnerships, and share market insights, but also facilitates the company's engagement with clients, partners, government, and the community. By participating in the CIIE for eight consecutive years, Standard Chartered has reaped significant benefits," said Winters.

"Every time I visit China, I sense enormous opportunity. I hope that at this year's CIIE, by showcasing innovative products and services, Standard Chartered will be able to establish partnerships with more clients," Winters added.

According to Medtronic Chairman and CEO Jeff Martha, the CIIE is not only an important international economic and trade event, but also a key opportunity for medical device manufacturer Medtronic. Through the CIIE, Medtronic can build comprehensive relationships with patients, partners, and regulators in a region experiencing dynamic healthcare development.

Jeff Martha noted that China is not only one of Medtronic's most important markets but also a key driver of global innovation in medical technology. Medtronic actively promotes the global reach of locally produced innovative Chinese technologies, benefiting millions of patients worldwide.

"The CIIE is not only an opportunity to showcase China's continued expansion and opening-up, but also an important platform for promoting global exchanges and collaboration," said Sanofi CEO Paul Hudson. He added that Sanofi has been participating in the exhibition since its inception. "More than 40 years ago, Sanofi became one of the first multinational companies to enter the Chinese market, as well as one of the first to establish a complete manufacturing chain in China. Since then, China has become a key strategic market for Sanofi."
