The 4th Linyi Trade City International Sourcing Conference is set to kick off in Linyi, Shandong province, on Oct 28. A series of side events will link with the main venue to boost the city's international trade and logistics profile.

Preparations, including buyer invitations, and on-site organization, are in full swing. A South Korean delegation, led by former Incheon City Council member Cho Kwang-hwi, will attend to connect with quality Linyi enterprises and expand "Made in China" products in the South Korean market.

The Lanhua Group session, covering over 2,000 square meters, will showcase home furnishings, auto supplies, hardware tools, and outdoor products. It has invited over 110 international buyers from South Korea, Malaysia, and other regions, along with more than 50 local enterprises. The event will provide nine South Korean and five English interpreters, alongside business forums and market tours.

The city's Lantian international auto city will host over 130 international buyers for precise matchmaking, featuring a used-car export launch ceremony and a cross-border procurement fair. On-site service windows will offer policy consultation, customs logistics, and cross-border settlement. Used-car export orders are expected to reach 400 units.

As one of the three key events, a precise procurement matchmaking fair will welcome 50 international buyers from Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Central Asia, Africa, and Latin America, all carrying real purchase orders. Sixty quality suppliers from Shandong will participate, with 60 product booths for on-site sample inspection and negotiation.
