A new opportunity for strengthening commercial ties with China
From November 5 to 10, 2019, the city of Shanghai, China, will host the second China International Import Expo (CIIE), a trade fair held annually since 2018 that creates new chances for Latin American countries to get a share in the growing Chinese market.

According to Xinhua, China’s official state-run press agency, the CIIE represents a great opportunity for El Salvador, specially for coffee products. “Ever since the two countries established diplomatic ties on August 21, 2018, China has been actively developing the relationship based on mutual respect, shared benefit, equal footing and non-intervention in each other's internal affairs”, said China's Ambassador to El Salvador Ou Jianhong.

In August, the first shipments of Salvadoran coffee embarked on trips for China through direct export. China has attached great importance to agricultural cooperation with El Salvador in developing bilateral ties, said Ou, who hopes “Salvadoran businessmen could make full use of the second CIIE, to better present their products and services to Chinese buyers”.
