The first China International Consumer Products Expo (Hainan Expo) will be held at Hainan International Convention and Exhibition Center from May 7-10, 2021. C&D Japan Inc. will be present with high-quality branded products from Japan’s three major Fortune 500 general trading companies, Marubeni Corporation, Sumitomo Corporation and Mitsui & Co., Ltd.

C&D Japan Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary in Japan of Xiamen C&D Inc., a core enterprise of the Fortune Global 500 C&D Group. Setting up branch in Japan is an important layout for Xiamen C&D Inc. to further “go global” and accelerate its internationalization. Adhering to the concept of win-win cooperation of Xiamen C&D Inc., C&D Japan will make full integration of the five major resources of logistics, information, finance, commodities and market. Based on the four types of services and elements of “logistics”, “information”, “finance” and “trading” (LIFT), C&D Japan will also offer customized “LIFT” services by planning solutions concerning supply chain operations for customers and partners.

In view of the hybrid market constituted by China, Japan, Southeast Asian countries and the entire RCEP member countries, C&D Japan’s supply chain operations business mainly consists of the following three dimensions:

(1) leveraging the status of its parent company, Xiamen C&D Inc., as the only listed state-owned enterprise in China having close supply chain cooperation with Japan’s five major general trading companies, recommending Japanese OEM & ODM for Chinese enterprises and helping them purchase Japanese manufactured goods and industrial raw materials;

(2) empowering the supply chain of Japanese consumer goods enterprises, and providing Japanese brands, manufacturers and retailers with one-stop supply chain operations services from brand building to online and offline full-link sales to help their digital transformation (DX) targeting China, Southeast Asia and the entire RCEP market;

(3) helping Chinese brands and manufacturers of advanced manufacturing and AI/IOT to fully go global based on the global business network of Japan’s five major general trading companies and their huge customer base.

Marubeni Corporation, a strategic partner of Xiamen C&D Inc., is a super-large Japanese general trading company standing ahead on the list of the Fortune Global 500. Xiamen C&D Inc. has a long-term and stable strategic cooperation with Marubeni for years in various business sectors such as agricultural products, metals, and chemicals, with an annual transaction scale of RMB 5 billion. Mr. Zheng Yongda, Chairman of Xiamen C&D Inc., and Mr. Shinoda Toshio, deputy chief representative of Marubeni Corporation in China, signed a strategic cooperation MOU at the 3rd China International Import Expo in 2020. Mr. Shinoda Toshio also paid a visit to C&D Inc. in January 2021 and met with Chairman Zheng to reach a consensus on the strategic cooperation of supply chain in more new fields in the future to achieve win-win results. On the Hainan Expo, C&D Japan will partner with Marubeni to present a variety of high-end consumer goods of Marubeni to Chinese consumers, including the Creekstone Farms Premium Black Angus Beef with 100% Marubeni’s investment, “ITTEKI” brand of drip bag coffee/baked beans, and “Café Iguacu”, a Brazilian original imported instant coffee produced by world-class IC manufacturer with 100% Marubeni’s investment.

Sumitomo Corporation is a super-large Japanese general trading company ranking 238th among the Fortune Global 500. Xiamen C&D Inc. has established close relationship with Sumitomo in terms of supply chain cooperation in timber, steel and mineral products. Riding on the “spillover effect” of this Expo, the two sides will actively explore ways to help more Japanese cosmetics brands provide one-stop supply chain operations services from brand building to online and offline full-link sales. During the event, C&D Japan will collaborate with Sumitomo to debut a number of products new in China for Chinese consumers, including HAKUZA, a well-known Japanese gold foil cosmetics brand, and a series of health care products from Japan Clinic, the largest producer of oysters in Japan.

Mitsui & Co., Ltd. is a super-large Japanese general trading company ranking 172nd among the Fortune Global 500, with which Xiamen C&D Inc. has cooperated in fields of energy and mineral products. C&D Japan and Mitsui & Co. will exhibit in the Hainan Expo a variety of sake produced in Saga Prefecture of Japan and the popular Sour3 for Chinese consumers.      

In addition, C&D Japan will organize a number of tasting, drinking, test marketing, trial use and sample distribution activities on site in collaboration with these three companies. Professional buyers are welcome to visit the booth to share business opportunities.

The China International Consumer Products Expo creates a global platform for the display and trading of international consumer goods, gathering high-end and high-quality resources from around the world. C&D Japan will seize this opportunity to actively bring more superior Japanese commodity resources and recommend Japanese OEM & ODM for Chinese enterprises. Besides, it will continue to deepen its cooperation with Japanese general trading companies and Japanese brands to accelerate the gathering of Japanese enterprises, brands and goods in China. Furthermore, C&D Japan will be committed to pushing more Chinese high-quality brands and manufacturers to go global and boosting domestic and international circulations, with every effort to build a high ground of quality consumption and a shared and win-win ecosystem with partners.
