For citizens of Zhengzhou now, it is really simple to purchase imported commodities.

Due to logistics difficulties in the development of China’s cross-border e-commerce, such as high price of delivery, uncontrollable timeliness, subcontract of logistics transit, geometrically-increased risk factors, delay, package loss and other problems, Henan has created a set of entirely new IT systems linking with Customs and General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of the PRC for the cross-border e-commerce. Once the consumers buy the commodities, the order, payment and ID information can be seamlessly submitted to the Customs for clearance so that to finally realize the rapid delivery of commodities.
Since the Fair won the cross-border e-commerce project, Tmall.HK, Jumei Global and other online platforms and offline experience stores have been established in Henan.
