According to the latest statistics from Ningbo Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Bureau, in the first half of this year, 87 overseas trade offices for foreign trade enterprises were approved, in 17 countries including the United Arab Emirates, the United States, Germany and Nigeria and such regions as Hong Kong and Taiwan. By the end of June, there had been 1546 approved overseas enterprises and agencies with a total investment of $3.49 billion. Among them, there are 1159 overseas marketing outlets in 97 countries and regions.
