Center from 12th

of Commerce of Guangdong Province (GD-DOC).
More than 180
companies from Hong Kong and Guangdong showcased products including electronics,
fashion, watches and clocks, household products and gifts and premiums.
According to the HKTDC, the total value of bilateral trade between Hong Kong
and Turkey exceeded US$1.2 billion last year - a year-on-year increase of 7%.
Andrew Leung, council
member of the HKTDC, commented at the opening ceremony,
“Trade between our two countries, Turkey and China, dates back centuries. This
Expo is an opportunity to build new B2B bridges along the new Silk Road.”
