China News Service, Shanghai, November 10 (Reporter Xu Jing) From November 5 to 10, the 9th China International Import Expo was held in Shanghai. As one of the important conference activities of the 9th CIIE, the "4th Forum on Making Good Use of Hong Kong's Resource Advantages to Go Overseas Development and Hong Kong Products Supply Chain Cooperation Conference" was held in Shanghai. The conference launched the "Chinese Enterprises (Hong Kong) Exhibition and Trade Center - Good Things from Hometown·Supply to Hong Kong and Overseas".
Based in Hong Kong, this operation promotes the supply of goods from mainland counties to the global market through compliance certification, cross-border warehousing, procurement docking and brand marketing.
Chairman of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Hong Kong, Leung Wing-on, pointed out that the purpose of the Federation is to be based in Hong Kong, serve the mainland, and connect the world; supply chain cooperation with Hong Kong is not a short-term economic and trade activity, but an important step for the mainland's high-quality products to complete the standardization, branding, and international transformation. Making good use of Hong Kong's "super contacts" and "super value-added people" functions can help companies shift from single product output to in-depth operations that use standards, brands and channels to enter the international market.
Yang Xubo, deputy director of the Shanghai Hongqiao International Central Business District Management Committee, emphasized that the Hongqiao International Open Hub, as a node connecting two markets in the Yangtze River Delta, can provide location, policy and international resources for the Hong Kong supply chain. Shi Xiaoping, a second-level inspector of the Shanghai Municipal Commerce Commission, affirmed the supporting role of Shanghai-Hong Kong collaboration in the smooth supply of ports and seas from the perspective of Shanghai's high-level opening up to the outside world and dual-circulation economy.
During the ninth China International Import Expo, Hong Kong had nearly 400 exhibitors, the largest scale in history. For the first time, an "overseas services exhibition area" was set up to showcase professional service capabilities in finance, law, accounting, supply chain and other fields, and provide docking scenarios for mainland enterprises to "go global" through Hong Kong. This conference further deepens the previous three conferences. It no longer stops at "talking about going overseas through Hong Kong channels", but integrates testing and compliance, cross-border warehousing and distribution, brand exhibition and trade, listing financing and other links into an executable service chain for supplying Hong Kong and going overseas, so that high-quality mainland products can first complete the standardization and compliance transformation, and then enter the international procurement and capital market system through Hong Kong. This orientation coincides with the direction of the ninth CIIE to strengthen the professional docking of "overseas services".
At the conference, the Hong Kong Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry’s Professional Listing and Overseas Service Alliance signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou)-Ningbo Harbor Joint Innovation R&D and Transformation Center to jointly build the Ningbo Listing and Overseas Service Platform. The Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Hong Kong signed a memorandum of cooperation with the Heilongjiang International Chamber of Commerce and the China Enterprises Association for Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation.
During the free docking session of the conference, guests discussed on-site on testing and certification, supply channels to Hong Kong, overseas exhibitions and trade, and investment and financing services.
This conference is hosted by the Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Hong Kong, with the core of "building a supply chain cooperation platform for products supplied to Hong Kong". It brings together representatives from governments, trade promotion councils, federations of industry and commerce, business associations and well-known enterprises to carry out practical docking around Hong Kong supply compliance, supply chain exhibition and trade, and corporate internationalization services.
The Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Hong Kong stated that supplying goods to Hong Kong is not the end point, but the “first mile” for mainland products to access the international market. Based on the China Enterprise (Hong Kong) Exhibition and Trade Center and the Hong Kong Professional Listing Overseas Service Alliance, the Federation will link up with the Mainland Council for the Promotion of International Trade, the Federation of Industry and Commerce and the industry side to transform the forum consensus into trackable project docking, assist the mainland's high-quality products to complete standardization, compliance and brand transformation, and steadily enter the international procurement and capital market system.
