Commodities, delicacies, creative products and souvenirs from Portuguese-speaking countries will light up the 30th session of the Dynamic Macao Business and Trade Fair, held in Guangzhou, capital of Guangdong province, from May 9 to 11.

The event will feature 200 booths at the China Import and Export Fair Pazhou Complex, with nearly 300 Macao trade delegation members and exhibitors to attend.

The event will also help promote cooperation between Macao and Guangzhou in conventions and exhibitions, technological innovation, youth entrepreneurship and tourism, said Fung Kin-syu, manager of the External Promotion Planning Division of the Macao Trade and Investment Promotion Institute at the press conference on Tuesday.

Macao is actively building itself up as a hub for food products from Portuguese-speaking countries and promoting other products from those countries in the Chinese mainland, Fung said.

Such products have great potential, as the goal is being fulfilled of reducing travel time among cities in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area to one hour, he said.
