The RAUIE actively supports Russian companies that are engaged in foreign economic activity: we have a program for free search of industrial equipment and goods from China, as well as a program for export to China with results-based payments. At the same time, the RAUIE tries to help all enterprises as much as possible, not only Union's members, this is our mission " - said Maxim Kuznetsov.
