Nansha emerges as frontline platform for Chinese companies expanding into Africa

To celebrate the 70th anniversary of diplomatic relations between China and Africa, Nansha hosted an exchange event for private enterprises exploring overseas opportunities on Jan 25, bringing together over 400 representatives from the government, chambers of commerce, and businesses to discuss cooperation.

During the event, multiple memorandums of cooperation were signed, the "China-Africa Non-Governmental Chamber of Commerce Scenario Release Station" was unveiled, and "Business Attraction Advisors" were appointed to strengthen service platforms.

Leveraging its advantages as a national new area and free trade zone, Nansha provides strong cross-border financial services and tax incentives, aligning with the needs of Chinese and African enterprises. Nansha Port currently operates 25 direct shipping routes to Africa, with improved customs clearance efficiency, helping companies connect quickly to global markets. Local enterprises, such as the brand APSONIC under Decent Group, have expanded into the African market, while products "Made in Nansha" are highly sought after.

Relying on platforms such as the China-Africa Economic and Trade Greater Bay Area International Business Center, Nansha has established cooperation with multiple African industrial parks and business associations, covering 15 African countries and regions. Through the "Going Global" comprehensive service base, it offers one-stop support for enterprises. In addition, Nansha is further deepening its "Five-Port Linkage" strategy, building a full-chain system from African demand to Chinese processing, and bringing China-Africa cooperation to a whole new level.
