Study Tours and Business Development Missions

 

While the business opportunities in China is vast, capturing business opportunities and markets and sustaining market success in the complex Chinese agrifood market is not easy.

Business success with China is constrained by language and culture; shortage of quality information about China’s business and investment environment and rules and regulations, business know-how and skills and tools, and the lack of experienced Australia-China business facilitators with the needed China expertise and linkages in China to help foreign businesses to build business structures, mechanisms, channels, networks, relationships and partnerships essential to DOING and MAKING business happen between China and Australia.

To help foreign organizations and companies to capture markets in China, AgrifoodAsia regularly organizes familiarization study tours and high impact business development missions to China.

 

These study tours and missions are industry sector or objectives specific and are designed to focus on:

 

  • Developing sustainable linkages and relationships with major government and industry authorities/groups in key parts of China

  • Enhancing the knowledge and insights of mission participants of the current status and potential opportunities of the China horticultural market

  • Improving the skills of the mission participants on how to DO and MAKE horticultural business happen in China
