China will hold the second China-CEEC Expo in Ningbo, Zhejiang province, from June 8 to 11, said the event's organizers.

The grand event, co-organized by the Ministry of Commerce and Zhejiang provincial government, is designed to explore more opportunities to boost trade in consumer goods and services with Central and Eastern European nations.

The expo's trade shows are grouped under three categories – the CEEC exhibition, the international consumer goods exhibition and the permanent exhibition of imported commodities, said Zhu Congjiu, vice-governor of Zhejiang province.

The total floor area of the exhibition is 200,000 square meters. More than 2,000 exhibitors and 6,000 buyers are expected to participate in the event.

Ren Hongbin, assistant minister of commerce, said the expo serves as an important platform to deepen economic and trade ties between China and CEE economies. China is well-prepared to host the expo this year as COVID-19 has been effectively put under control, while bilateral economic and trade cooperation is witnessing robust rebounds.

Bilateral trade between the two sides surged by 50.2 percent on a yearly basis to $30.13 billion in the first quarter of this year, while Poland, the Czech Republic and Hungary remained as China's top three trading partners, data from the Ministry of Commerce and the General Administration of Customs showed.
