During the conference that included extensive promotion of Chengdu's business, tourism, convention and exhibition markets, a spokesperson for the Commission of Commerce of Chengdu highlighted the roll out of China Rail Chengdu-Europe Express and business opportunities brought about by the freight train service.
During the three-day Moscow-Chengdu Week, the "Silk Road on the Cloud"-themed cross-border e-commerce exhibition that was hosted by the Chengdu government in Russia for the first time displayed many made-in- Chengdu products, including textiles, garments and electronics, at Krasnaya Presnya Park in Moscow , attracting the widespread attention of local visitors.
By partnering with a Russian e-commerce platform, the event has not only brought made-in- Sichuan products to local consumers in
Moscow through a combination of physical exhibitions, online sales and trade negotiations, but has also helped brands in
Chengdu expand into international markets by promoting their products in
Russia , according to the spokesperson.
"Organized by the Chengdu government, local cross-border e-commerce and foreign trade companies have joined in a survey of products made in Russia, with the aim of boosting mutual trade," added the spokesperson.
Besides the e-commerce exhibition, an exhibit of Chengdu's non-tangible cultural heritage and a performance of traditional Chengdu dance and music held during Moscow-Chengdu Week showcased a variety of traditional wares and arts that are distinctive of Sichuan province, including Sichuan brocade, Sichuan embroidery, paper-cutting, bamboo weaving and tea art. The event was warmly received by the large crowd of local visitors.
