Since 2019, China International Consumer Goods Fair has been renamed as China-CEEC Expo & International Consumer Goods Fair. It is an annual event to be held in Ningbo from June 8 to 12, 2019, organized by the Department of Commerce of Zhejiang Province, Ningbo Municipal People’s Government, and Ningbo Municipal Commerce Bureau. 

So far, the event has been upgraded to a national-level exhibition, and during the event, the 21st China Zhejiang Investment & Trade Symposium will be held at the same time.

The event will become a new platform for China to carry out pragmatic economic and trade cooperation under a cooperation framework of 16+1 and a new window for different regions of China to cooperate with CEEC, as well as a new example for Zhejiang Province’s involvement in the BRI construction.

The first China-CEEC Expo will fully implement the national BRI Initiative and the consensus reached in the meetings of leaders of China and CEEC countries with a theme of “Deepening Opening up and Cooperation, Pursuing Mutual Benefits”, and focus on economic and trade cooperation. 

By organizing a series of activities such as conferences and forums, investment negotiations, signing ceremonies of projects, trade exhibitions and cultural exchanges, the event aims to establish a platform featuring negotiation, which is based on the prerequisite of shared benefits, enhance cultural and foreign exchange, thus improving the international image of Zhejiang.
