Shanghai deputy mayor Lu Shan said at a State Council Information Office briefing that the 8th China International Import Expo showcased more than 3,400 new products, technologies and services. Shanghai has built a “6 days + 365 days” year‑round exhibition and sales mechanism: Hongqiao PinHui now aggregates goods from over 120 countries, 6,000+ brands and about 85,000 SKUs mirroring CIIE items; Greenland Global Commodity Trade Port has enabled first-time Shanghai launches for 200+ overseas brands across eight editions, and an online “365 exhibition & trade” platform links remote buyers. Lu said market feedback from these product debuts has led an increasing number of exhibitors to move from short-term participation to onshore investment, with some shifting from traders to investors and adopting “China production, supply global” industry models.
