Guangdong, bordering on Hong Kong and Macao, is located in the southernmost part of Mainland China, facing the South China Sea. Guangdong is at a forward position of China’s opening-up and modernization construction and it also boasts the most prosperous foreign trade and economy in Mainland China, establishing trade ties with over 200 countries and regions in the world. Enterprises from over 100 countries and regions have come and invested in Guangdong. Guangdong is one of the most important manufacture bases in China, with focus on nine pillar industries, namely, electronics and information, electric appliances and machinery, petrochemical, automobile, pharmaceutical, paper making, textiles & garments, food & beverage, and construction material. Modern service industry, represented by logistics and exhibition, has also embarked on a strong momentum of development. In Guangzhou, the Chinese Export Commodities Fair, which is held twice a year (spring and autumn) and the China Small and Medium Enterprises Fair (CSMEF) have provided a wide exchange and cooperation platform for foreign investors all over the world. Guangdong has great advantages of daily-improved infrastructure, highly developed telecommunication, well-organized transportation network and custom clearance. The economic laws and IPR protection systems have been instantly improved, and therefore the legislative interest and right of the foreign investors will be better protected. Today, Guangdong has become one of the most favorite destinations for the regional headquarters of the transnational companies and the world industry transfer.

Looking forward into the future, with accelerated paces in modernization construction and closer cooperation in the Great Pearl River Delta and the Pan Pearl River Delta, Guangdong will provide a wider development space for the foreign investors all over the world. We are eagerly looking forward to joining hands with all the investors home and abroad to realize a mutually beneficial and shared development.
