The First Exhibition of Ecuadorian Agricultural Products in Shanghai was held simultaneously in two Exhibition Centers for Agricultural Products: in Xijiao, exclusively for importers, distributors, wholesalers, retailers, representatives of hotel chains and restaurants, and in Shanghai, specialized in presenting new products to final consumers. Both centers are large platforms of exposure and important references for the diffusion of new products in the Municipality of Shanghai as well as the neighboring provinces such as Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Anhui, which represent 30% of GDP of the Republic of China.
The following Ecuadorian companies sent samples to this event: Agrícola Pitacava, Agroeden, Naturisa S.A., Frutierrez, Golden Value, Kiwa, Pacari and Snob.
The Ecuadorian Pavilion attracted the interest of Chinese importers and provided an excellent opportunity to promote the exportable offer of Ecuador.
The Embassy of Ecuador had the valuable collaboration of the Agriculture Commission of the Municipality of Shanghai and was supported by the Inspection and Quarantine Bureau of the Municipality of Shanghai, the Shanghai Expo Group and PROECUADOR for the event. PRESS RELEASE No. 1054 |
