（1） International Exhibitions Platform
Chinamex uses the platform provided by the China Machinery and Electronic Products Exhibition Center to regularly hold large-scale, high quality trade exhibitions. Up to this point, Chinamex has already hosted 21 events, including a wide variety of commodity exhibitions and trade fairs.
Since 2002, Chinamex and the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce, with the help of the Chinese Department of Commerce, have worked together in hosting the annual “China Commodities Fair Sharjah (CCFS)”. There have already been nine consecutive fairs held successfully.
CCFS has already become, up to this point, the largest scale trade fair hosted by China in the Middle East. It is also the largest overseas trade fair ever hosted by the Chinese Department of Commerce. The nine CCFS expos have hosted over 2,400 Chinese companies, with overseas companies procuring 155,000 RMB worth of goods. The overall amount of transactions taking place at the shows exceeded 3.5 billion USD, with contracts with intent to purchase amounting to approximately 20.5 billion USD.
Competition for U.A.E. market share at the exhibitions is fierce. CCFS has already become one of the most influential local brands in the U.A.E. It promotes the export of Chinese enterprises and Chinese commodities to the U.A.E. and the Middle East, and has brought thousands of Chinese companies directly to the markets of the U.A.E. and the Middle East, providing plenty of business opportunities.
“China Commodities Fair Sharjah” has earned high praise from all relevant Chinese government departments, companies attending the exhibition, local and foreign purchasers, as well as local and foreign media outlets.
（2）A Platform for the Internationalization of Chinese Cities and Companies
In 2009, Chinamex used its 10+ years of experience to help Chinese companies achieve their goals of going global. Chinamex has formally introduced the concept of the internationalization of cities.
The concept for the internationalization of cities: help Chinese cities combine with cities overseas to create friendly trade cooperation. According to the Chinese Ministry of Commerce, high-level meetings will be held once a year between Chinese and European cities. Through these high-level meetings, cooperation on trade, investment, projects, technology, branding, and exhibitions will be achieved.
The current status of the internationalization of Chinese cities is different all over the country. Chinamex has planned the internationalization of cities according to the requirements of the industrial structure of the city as well as the governmental development plans for the city. Chinamex takes advantages of its internal resources when trying to find cities for friendly economic cooperation in the Middle East, Europe, the U.S., Latin America, and other regions and countries. Using this method, Chinamex helps Chinese cities establish networks that are able to reach multiple markets, thus reaching their goal of helping Chinese cities internationalize.
At the same time, the internationalization of Chinese cities helps bring about internationalization services of the companies in these cities. The goal is to increase the grade and quality of Chinese companies “Going Global”, and on that basis, implement the “Go Global” strategy for Chinese companies.
Chinamex’s docking and operation services concept is to establish effective channels for Chinese companies to enter international markets and gain access to technology, branding, and capital. Chinamex helps Chinese companies enter their target markets for the lowest possible cost, and shortest time span possible. It implements targeted docking between domestic and foreign enterprises to realize win-win situations for both parties.
Currently, Chinamex has already set up marketing centers in the U.A.E., the U.S., and Holland, providing them with individualized services.
（3）Commodities Trade Platform
Chinamex’s planned construction of commodities trading platforms has received the support of all relevant government departments. It has organized Chinese production companies to enter different commodities markets, and allows companies to meet their expansion plans.
“Dragon Mart” in Dubai is a cooperative project between Chinamex and Dubai’s government. From concept, to planning, to the design of “Dragon Mart”, to construction, to organization of Chinese companies to be stationed there, to operation, to promotion, all aspects were independently undertaken by Chinamex. After completion, there were over 2,200 Chinese companies waiting to take part in the project. Up to this point, “Dragon Mart” is currently China’s highest quality, largest scale, best service-providing, most influential commodities trading platform.
Based on the desire for the huge markets in North, Central, and South America by Chinese companies and products, Chinamex’s many years of experience in North, Central, and South America has led them to the current plans for a “Dragon Mart” there as well.
