SHENZEN, CHINA, BTNp: AT THE INAUGURAL show held in September 2021, CCBEC was a huge success with an exhibition area of 100,000 sqm establishing itself as one of the largest trade fairs of its kind in China, covering three major segments: suppliers, cross-border service providers and e-commerce platforms.
The ‘Greater Bay Area Trade in Services Fair’ (GBATS) will also be held online concurrently. The “physical + online” platforms offered by the two trade fairs will attract companies from the entire trade and business services chain, as well as quality local and overseas suppliers, e-commerce platforms and service providers.
This year’s CCBEC will serve as a convergence point for a large number of suppliers and buyers from across the country to conduct business. Together with the online format of GBATS, the two trade fairs will create additional business connections and help industry peers grasp the opportunities from the latest round of economic initiatives.

This involves supporting local districts to build one-stop cross-border e-commerce service platforms which will oversee preferential policy applications, logistics tracking, dispute resolution and other services. Solving product return and exchange challenges, and streamlining import procedures for faster customs clearance are also priorities.
