The Guizhou International Center, a comprehensive foreign trade service platform, officially started operating on May 20.
The center is located in the Guiyang National High-tech Industrial Development Zone (Guiyang HIDZ) in Guiyang, the capital of Southwest China's Guizhou province.
It was jointly established by Guizhou Feiyu Aviation Co and Suge Trade Hong Kong Co in December 2021 with a registered capital of $50 million.
The center has so far set up economic and trade representative offices in 29 countries, covering Northeast Asia, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Europe, North America and Africa.

It has maintained close contact and information and cultural exchanges with governments, institutions and Chinese groups and business associations in the host countries.
In the future, the Guizhou International Center also plans to gradually establish overseas economic and trade representative offices, the Guizhou Chamber of International Commerce, the Bilateral Entrepreneurs Council and the Guizhou Overseas Exhibition and Sales Center in key regions such as Europe, North America, the Middle East and ASEAN.
In addition, it will build "six service networks" for foreign-related product marketing, overseas promotion of Guizhou brands, talent training for enterprises, legal support, financial support and introduction of brand technology and equipment in an effort to develop itself into a high-quality, efficient and professional international brand trade promotion agency.
The Guizhou International Center will also be committed to helping government departments understand industry-related information, explore innovative models of industry development, and promote Guizhou's export-oriented economy to accelerate its pace of transformation and upgrading.
