Sixteen trade representatives from Indonesia, Ethiopia, Germany, and Vietnam arrived in Zhoushan, East China's Zhejiang province on Aug 3 for a three-day tour of the city.

These representatives come from embassies or consulates in China, overseas trade associations, as well as overseas liaison offices of the Zhejiang Provincial Committee of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade.

They all spoke highly of the favorable business environment in Zhoushan, as well as expressed their hopes to cooperate with the city in the marine fishing, marine electronic, and marine engineering equipment industries.

"I'm very optimistic about the business environment in Zhoushan and I'll invite Korean companies to visit the city next year," said director of the Hangzhou Business Center of the Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency.

Over the following two days, these representatives will visit Zhoushan Urban Exhibition Hall, Zhoushan National Distant-water Fishery Base, the River-sea Combined Transportation Service Center, and Zhoushan Marine industrial Gathering Zone.
