On November 1, Moscow hosted the first import-export Forum. The exhibition-forum
"International Import and Export Day 2019" was created by an initiative group of professionals under the auspices of the Interregional Public Organization "Moscow Association of Entrepreneurs", Enframe company and the Association of Exporters and Importers.
The plenary session and sections of the forum were attended by the executives and members of the RAUIE.
Maxim Kuznetsov, Vice-President of the RAUIE, made a welcoming speech and noted that the task of developing non-primary non-energy exports is now particularly important, and there are a number of opportunities for Asian countries: export of agricultural products, food products, high-value products, including pulp and paper products. However, according to the speaker, there are a number of problems among which the lack of knowledge of the business culture, a misunderstanding of the PRC market and the problem of mutual distrust, as well as a lack of investment and working capital for trade, economic and investment projects.
A memorandum was also signed between the RAUIE and the Association of Exporters and Importers, which made it possible to make Russian-Chinese business cooperation more efficient.
Among the members of the Union at the forum were
Natalia Kolganova — the CEO of Food Audit, who took part in the Arctic development section, as well as
representatives and Rosbank management prepared a report on the topic: “FEA: new solutions for your business”.
