A batch of Chinese-made mobile phones worth more than 20 million yuan ($2.92 million) was cleared on March 30 at Huanggang Port in Shenzhen city – in South China's Guangdong province – and shipped to Dubai and other countries.

The mobile phones were consigned by Qingtian Qiaoxiang Import Commodity City Group Co Ltd, a company based in Qingtian county, in Lishui city in East China's Zhejiang province.

The overseas business undertaken by the company is carried out in a cooperative manner – establishing cooperative relations with sales enterprises and jointly undertaking sales of various Chinese-made products. The products are mainly sold to Europe, Africa and other regions.

"We cooperate with mobile phone sales enterprises in Hong Kong and after careful selection we found a manufacturer in Shenzhen. Through our matchmaking, we sell these Chinese-made products to overseas markets," said Wang Jingfeng, head of the company.

He said that the second batch of Chinese-made products with a sales value of 22 million yuan would be shipped by sea next week.

Qingtian county has 381,000 overseas Chinese living in 146 countries and regions.

In recent years, the county has built a global overseas warehouse and supermarket sales network that integrates warehousing, logistics, customs clearances, wholesale and retail.
