For the first time ever, Burundi is taking center stage at this year's China International Import Expo (CIIE) in Shanghai, running from November 5-10. 🇧🇮✨
Alfred Burimaso, First Counselor at the Embassy of Burundi in China, is thrilled about Burundi's participation in the country exhibition. 'CIIE provides a unique platform for African businesses to be noticed,' he explains. This expo, the world's first national-level event dedicated solely to imports, offers a vast marketplace where Burundi can showcase its unique products to a global audience.
One of the standout features attracting Burundi is China's zero-tariff policy for least-developed countries. Burimaso highlights, 'China's commitment to opening up benefits the world,' making it easier for Burundi to export its goods without the burden of high tariffs. 📈🌐
By participating in CIIE, Burundi is not only boosting its trade potential but also strengthening economic ties with China and the wider world. This move marks a significant step in fostering international partnerships and driving economic growth for the island nation. 🚀🤝
