International

By Tan Jin Shen Hong

The year 2011 was special for Yiwu, a trade city in central Zhe-jiang. In 2011, the aggregate trade volume of all the marketplaces in the city amounted to 67.785 billion, an increase of 9.13% year-on-year. Of all the marketplaces in Yiwu, China Small Commodities City, the major player of the trade powerhouse, scored a trade vol-ume of 51.512 billion yuan, up 12.95% year-on-year. This makes China Small Commodities City stay on the top of all the specialized wholesale markets in China in terms of annual trade volume for 21st consecutive years since 1991.

The year 2011 was doubly important because the State Council approved a general plan in March 2011 for Yiwu to restructure itself for going international. The trade powerhouse is going to undergo major changes in nine aspects so that it will turn itself into an in-ternational trade center. Yiwu has played a central role in China’s exporting household commodities for a long time. The new plan is designed to turn the export powerhouse into an international trade center adopting a full range of standard trade rules and practices.

It was in 2011 that the city government launched 15 new policies

45,000 commodities in 20 plus categories from 75 countries and re-gions across the world. The new policies aim to modernize and in-ternationalize Yiwu further and turn it into a high-tech trade center.

The first decade of the 21st century witnessed how Yiwu turned itself from a regional trade center into an international marketplace, giving a large number of small and midsize manufacturers in China a platform for international trade. From 2001 to 2010, the interna-tionalization of Yiwu went from less than 5% up to 65% and the trade volume soared from 24.12 billion to 62.116 billion.

Now, more than 400,000 overseas buyers visit Yiwu a year, Yiwu boasts over 3,000 representative agencies of overseas trade enter-prises, and about 13,000 foreign businesspeople live in Yiwu all the year round. These buyers help export more than 1.7 million varie-ties of commodities to 219 countries and regions across the world.
