Zhu Yong noted that the Canton Fair Global Cooperative Partners Program advances
Premier Li Qiang’s vision of "following the trend of economic globalization and 
answering the call of the international community for joint development." This round
of signings, she said, marks a deeper partner network, more complete and effective
matchmaking services and higher, more substantive levels of cooperation.

Eugene Seroka described the agreement with the Canton Fair as a new beginning built
on mutual trust, one that drives business growth and promotes shared progress.

The Canton Fair signed memoranda with eight organizations, including six new partners:
Benelux Chamber of Commerce in China, Joinco, Palestinian Businessmen Association,
Rawalpindi Chamber of Commerce & Industry (RCCI), Polish-Chinese Chamber of Commerce
and the Port of Los Angeles, City of Los Angeles Harbor Department, and renewed 
ties with two existing partners, Lebanese Chinese Business Association and China
Information & Culture Centre (Kenya).

The new partners span key nodes, from a major North American port gateway to established
European markets and cover a diverse mix of shipping and logistics firms, business
associations and leading procurement enterprises.

As of the 140th session, the Canton Fair has partnered with 240 organizations across
112 countries and regions.

In his congratulatory letter to the 140th Canton Fair, President Xi Jinping noted
that China stands ready to join hands with countries around the world to jointly
uphold the multilateral trading system and expand the space for mutually beneficial
international economic and trade cooperation. Guided by this spirit, the Canton 
Fair will extend cooperation beyond goods trading to joint brand-building, shared
market development and shared services.
