  On August 18, 2026, the “Uniting China and Africa: Empowering Win-Win Cooperation” Ghana–Mozambique–Tanzania Economic and Trade Investment Matchmaking Conference and the Launch Ceremony for the Expansion Zone of the China–Africa Economic and Trade Headquarters Building were held in the Changsha Economic Development Zone. Zheng Ping, Member of the Party Leadership Group and Vice Mayor of the Changsha Municipal People’s Government; Wu Zhaoshu, Secretary of the Party Leadership Group and Director of the Changsha Municipal Bureau of Commerce; His Excellency NANA KWAME BODEI Ⅲ, a Ghanaian dignitary; and Peng Zheng, Executive President and Secretary-General of the Hunan Provincial Association for Promoting China–Africa Economic and Trade Cooperation, attended the event. Huang Jing, Deputy Director of the Free Trade Coordination Division of the Hunan Provincial Department of Commerce, and Zhao Wenjiao, Deputy Secretary of the Party Working Committee of the Changsha Economic Development Zone, also attended and delivered remarks. Wang Bin, Overseas General Manager of the East Africa China Industrial Park, was invited to participate in the conference, accompanied by He Yulong, Investment Promotion Director of the Hunan Jingdi Tanzania East Africa Industrial Park.

  At the event, industrial parks and cooperative projects in key countries such as Ghana, Tanzania, and Mozambique were prominently showcased. Wang Bin, serving as the Overseas General Manager of the East Africa China Industrial Park (Tanzania Blue Park), took to the stage to deliver a speech, engaging in in-depth discussions with chambers of commerce and manufacturing enterprises. He shared the park’s core advantages, including Tanzania’s local market opportunities, tax‑free incentives, and streamlined import‑export settlement procedures. Leveraging the Hunan China–Africa Economic and Trade Pilot Zone, the East Africa China Industrial Park continues to establish two‑way channels between China’s domestic industrial clusters and the East African market. Using the physical park as a bridge, it helps Hunan‑based companies sidestep intensifying competition at home, tap into East Africa’s trillion‑dollar blue‑ocean market, and deepen practical cooperation on industrial capacity between China and Africa.

  Hunan stands as a national hub for China–Africa cooperation. The expansion of the China–Africa Economic and Trade Headquarters Building has been established in Changsha’s Mingcheng Green Valley, bolstered by free-trade‑zone policies that pave the way and build bridges for Hunan enterprises seeking to go global. Within the comprehensive value chain of China–Africa economic and trade collaboration, the East Africa China Industrial Park serves as a pivotal nexus, facilitating the overseas development of Hunan’s diverse competitive industries. Leveraging its strategic location, robust market access, and favorable policy framework, the park provides end-to-end support for companies establishing operations abroad, thereby becoming an indispensable link in connecting domestic industries with East African markets and advancing China–Africa industrial capacity cooperation.

  This event has further established a China–Africa cooperation network featuring two-way linkages between China and Africa, centered on the “One Zone and Sixteen Parks” framework—where the “One Zone” refers to the China–Mozambique Economic Cooperation Zone, and the “Sixteen Parks” highlights key industrial platforms both at home and abroad, notably the East Africa China Industrial Park. This marks a formal shift in China–Africa cooperation, moving from isolated, point‑by‑point overseas expansion to a coordinated, integrated development strategy. Going forward, on the one hand, we will leverage Changsha’s platform resources to reduce enterprises’ upfront costs for market entry, policy alignment, and cross‑border services; on the other hand, we will rely on local African industrial parks to address practical challenges such as factory space, logistics, supply chains, government coordination, and localized operations, thereby providing comprehensive support to help companies not only “go global,” but also “stay put, operate effectively, and achieve sustainable growth.”
