Your Internet gateway to the Far East

11.03.2008

There is no doubt that world economic trends indicate an increasingly more significant role of the Far East countries, and China in particular, in the global economy. Nowadays, it is hard to imagine a large-scale growth of international trade exchange without considerable involvement of Chinese partners. Therefore, for many years now, the Port of Gdansk Authority SA has strived to expand business contacts with Chinese business partners who have recognized the potential offered by the Port of Gdansk and the opportunities afforded by a market of tens of millions of consumers in the region benefiting from port operations. The location of the port is particularly conducive to trade and investment due to the economic growth observed in Central and Eastern Europe, growing purchase power of the population, projected and implemented road and rail investment projects in Poland and last but not least superb parameters offered by the Gdansk port and vast development land.

One of the measures aimed at addressing new challenges entails the PGA SA participation in the conference "China Ports Future 2008" on 19-21 March and in the trade exhibition "Transport Logistic China 2008" on 17-19 June in Shanghai. Ahead of these events we have launched the Chinese-language version of the Port of Gdansk website at www.portgdansk.pl/ch. Our goal is to provide our Chinese investors with enhanced and more friendly access to services offered by the Port of Gdansk as a compliment to our Chinese business partners and also as an invitation to participate in the development of the Gdansk port.
