We would like to inform you that the Commissioner for Agriculture and Rural Development of the European Union, Mr. Janusz Wojciechowski, is planning the 4th high-level Business Delegation to China between April 21 and 26, 2024, with the aim of promoting agricultural products from the European Union (EU) in the Chinese market.

The main objective of the mission is to meet with the Chinese Minister of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the Minister of Commerce, and other Ministers of the Chinese Government. In addition to discussing matters on the political agenda, contacts will be established between representatives of EU and Chinese businesses. The meetings will address issues related to facilitating market access and strengthening contacts between Chinese and European companies operating in the agricultural sector.

For this purpose, the Cyprus Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCCI) invites all interested businesses in the agricultural sector of Cyprus to express their interest in participating in the mission through the following link: https://ec.europa.eu/eusurvey/runner/HLM_China_April_2024, no later than December 19, 2023.
