Wenzhou'S Foreign Trade Has Exceeded Billions Of Dollars For The First Time To Achieve A Historic Leap.

For the first time, Wenzhou's foreign trade volume exceeded US $10 billion to achieve a historic leap.

According to the statistics issued by Wenzhou customs yesterday, China's foreign trade continues to grow rapidly on the basis of rapid growth in the same period last year. From 1 to October this year, the total import and export of foreign trade was $10 billion 173 million.

Since the beginning of this year, in the face of a series of unfavorable factors such as RMB appreciation, export tax rebate adjustment, trade barriers and so on, the import and export value of our city in the first ten months has achieved a 25.2% increase.

Of which, exports of US $8 billion 427 million, an increase of 26.8%, and imports of US $1 billion 746 million, an increase of 18.3%.

The trade surplus reached US $6 billion 681 million.

In 2006, the total import and export volume of our city was only 9 billion 894 million US dollars. It is understood that in order to adapt to the new changes in the international economic situation, Wenzhou's foreign trade enterprises timely adjust their business strategy, and adopt various ways to explore the international market according to the characteristics and trade habits of different markets.

For example, the import and export scope of our emerging markets such as Russia, ASEAN and the Middle East has already created a gratifying situation, and its growth rate is far higher than that of Wenzhou's foreign trade export in the same period.

"In the face of many unfavorable factors, under the benign guidance of the government, our city enterprises not only actively expand overseas emerging markets, but also create brand awareness and enhance the technological content of export commodities."

Wang Gailuo, director of the Department of foreign trade and economic cooperation of the Municipal Bureau of foreign trade and economic cooperation, said that at present, the commodity export of our city has expanded to 190 countries and regions.

The diversification of export market reflects the strong market adaptability of our export commodities.

At the same time, the municipal government has intensified the efforts of organizing enterprises to "go out" to participate in the exhibition. It has organized enterprises to participate in more than a dozen international trade exhibitions, such as the two Canton Fair, the China Fair, the fair, and so on.

Su Xiangqing, director general of the Municipal Bureau of foreign trade and economic cooperation, said that the total import and export volume of US $10 billion was a breakthrough, showing the good momentum of Wenzhou's foreign trade development. At the same time, this is also a new starting point, which calls for further changing the mode of trade growth in the future development and opening wider to the outside world, so as to enhance the pulling effect of our foreign trade on economic development.
