"Wheeled excavators are our flagship products, and orders for both production lines are full until March this year." At the Dezhou (Yucheng) National High-tech Industrial Development Zone in Shandong Province, all production lines at Dimeng Heavy Industry Machinery Co., Ltd. are operating at full capacity. General Manager Wang Rongliang said that the company's products are mainly used for road maintenance, earthwork construction, and forestry construction, and exports in 2023 increased by 90% year-on-year. Wang Rongliang said that as a private enterprise, focusing on international markets, optimizing products, and expanding markets is a common understanding of the company and its more than 200 parts suppliers for future development. In 2024, the company's management has planned overseas visits, and developing markets in countries participating in the Belt and Road Initiative is a key direction. "I plan to spend most of this year abroad, mainly visiting clients, understanding their needs, and exploring broader markets." In recent years, the role of the private economy in driving the development of foreign trade in Shandong has become increasingly prominent. In 2023, there were more than 68,000 foreign trade operators with import and export records in the province, an increase of more than 4,000 compared to the previous year. Among them, there were 62,300 private enterprises, with a total import and export value of 2.42 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 3.9%, accounting for 74.3% of the province's total import and export value, and maintaining its position as the largest foreign trade operator in Shandong for 12 consecutive years. Shi Yong said that from a market perspective, Russia is the largest incremental market for private enterprises in Shandong. In 2023, Shandong's import and export trade with Russia reached 229.6 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 31.8%, accounting for 9.5% of the province's total import and export value of private enterprises, a net increase of 55.45 billion yuan, and contributing 60.7% to the growth of private enterprise foreign trade. As a major agricultural province in China, Shandong exported 147.6 billion yuan worth of agricultural products in 2023, a year-on-year increase of 6.3%, setting a new historical high and accounting for 21.2% of the country's total agricultural product exports, maintaining its position as the largest exporter of agricultural products. Zhang Yibing, deputy director of Jinan Customs, said that among the agricultural products exported by Shandong in 2023, the export growth rate of deep-processed products with higher added value was 6.6%, and their proportion increased to 47.9%. "The company's development has exceeded expectations. In just six months, durian sales reached 50 million yuan, and the total import and export value is expected to exceed 500 million yuan in 2024." Shanbei Gigi (Shandong) International Trade Co., Ltd., located in the Weifang Comprehensive Bonded Zone in Shandong Province, is a cross-border e-commerce company engaged in the sales of tropical fruits, frozen meat, and other products. General Manager Hu Wen said that with the help of the cold chain warehouse and smooth logistics of the integrated operation center, the company's operating costs have been greatly reduced, and this year, all processing and logistics businesses previously conducted elsewhere have been transferred to the Weifang Comprehensive Bonded Zone. Yu Fengjie, deputy secretary of the Party committee and chairman of Weifang Comprehensive Bonded Zone Investment Development Co., Ltd., said that the "four-in-one" integrated operation center of the bonded zone can realize the same-site supervision and one-stop customs clearance of four business types: cross-border e-commerce 1210 and 9610, international express, and international mail. From January to November 2023, the cross-border e-commerce import and export volume of the bonded zone increased by 49% year-on-year, accounting for 56.8% of the total volume in Weifang City, and the 1210 export business volume ranked first among comprehensive bonded zones in Shandong Province. Diverse trade forms continue to add new "channels" to the development of foreign trade in Shandong. In 2023, Shandong's general trade import and export reached 2.13 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 2.4%, accounting for 65.2% of the province's total import and export value. Among them, bonded logistics import and export reached 532.01 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 2.2%; processing trade import and export reached 514.37 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 1.8%. In the view of Shi Yong, deputy director of Qingdao Customs, Shandong's export-oriented economy is mainly supported by manufacturing, and intermediate goods import and export have become an important driving force for the province's foreign trade development. In 2023, Shandong's intermediate goods import and export reached 2.04 trillion yuan, accounting for 62.6% of the province's total import and export value, 1.5 percentage points higher than the national average. In terms of exports, in 2023, Shandong exported 963.18 billion yuan worth of intermediate goods, accounting for 49.6% of the province's total exports. ASEAN is the largest market for Shandong's intermediate goods exports, with exports reaching 159.88 billion yuan in 2023, accounting for 54.2% of the province's total exports to ASEAN; exports of intermediate goods to Vietnam, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, and Singapore all exceeded 200 billion yuan. In 2023, Shandong imported 1.08 trillion yuan worth of intermediate goods, accounting for 81.8% of the province's total imports, including 376.73 billion yuan of energy products, 195.3 billion yuan of metal ores, and 154.88 billion yuan of electromechanical intermediate goods. Shi Yong said that as a coastal province, Shandong has imported a large amount of raw materials and components through seaports, playing an important role in ensuring the stability and smooth flow of industrial chains and supply chains in Shandong and even China, and also providing broad market space for global suppliers. According to customs statistics, in 2023, the export value of Shandong's "new three major items" reached 9.39 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 47.3%, among which the growth rate of lithium-ion batteries and electric passenger vehicles both exceeded 100%. Shi Yong said that electric passenger vehicles, lithium-ion batteries, and solar cells, as the "new three major items" of foreign trade, have become new trends in Shandong's industrial development and new drivers of foreign trade growth.
