BEIJING, July 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — This is a report from China.org.cn:

At the 3rd China International Supply Chain Expo (CISCE), Canadian host Simon embarked on an immersive exploration of the advanced manufacturing zone—highlighting how global supply chains are accelerating the future of aviation, drones, and intelligent manufacturing.

At the PwC booth, Simon encountered the VERTAXI eVTOL (electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft), a new-generation passenger drone designed for urban air mobility. Capable of autonomous flight and rooftop takeoff, the aircraft represents a major step forward in the rapidly growing low-altitude economy. PwC also presented a panoramic view of this emerging industry chain, spanning aircraft development, infrastructure, and service platforms.

Simon also visited the JOUAV booth, where he explored how drones are transforming emergency response. From disaster relief and infrastructure inspection to unmanned flight systems, JOUAV’s vertical takeoff UAVs showcase how smart technologies are reshaping real-world applications.

At the Airbus booth, Simon explored a full supply chain ecosystem behind the company’s aircraft. Through conversations with representatives of Airbus and its Chinese partners—including suppliers of titanium alloys, aircraft seating, and recycled composite materials—Simon learned how Airbus has deeply integrated with China’s advanced manufacturing ecosystem. From lightweight ergonomic seats made by Hangyu Jiatai to sustainable recycling solutions led by HRC, each supplier plays a vital role in delivering world-class aircraft.

Through his journey in the advanced manufacturing zone, Simon uncovered a complete industrial process—from R&D and materials to precision parts and intelligent equipment—all enabled by supply chain collaboration. Whether in aerospace, low-altitude mobility, rail transit, or industrial automation, the success of advanced manufacturing depends on seamless global partnerships.

BEIJING, July 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — A news report from China.org.cn on China’s supply chain:

Jeff Bowman, a 72-year-old American CEO, is considering moving his factory to China.

Bowman’s factory produces a specialized compound used in textiles for garments and outdoor gear, with production spanning both China and the U.S. However, the tariff hike levied on Chinese goods by the U.S. government has disrupted what was once a smooth-running supply chain. The unpredictable and shifting U.S. trade policies have forced Bowman to rethink his supply chain strategy to avoid further uncertainty.

Contrary to the U.S. government’s hopes for industrial reshoring, many American business owners like Bowman are planning to shift parts of their U.S.-based production to China, to benefit from the country’s well-developed infrastructure and vast consumption market.

The 3rd China International Supply Chain Expo (CISCE) has drawn a crowd of domestic and international exhibitors, testifying to the strong appeal of China’s supply chains. This year’s event has attracted more than 650 exhibitors from 75 countries, regions, and international organizations, with the number of American exhibitors up 15% from the previous edition.

The ever-growing international presence at CISCE is owed to the stability, innovation, openness, and win-win cooperation that define China’s supply chains.

In recent years, China has focused on strengthening both the weak and strong links along its supply chains, a key driver of its stability and innovation. On the one hand, efforts have been dedicated to tackling bottlenecks in key technological areas like basic materials and core components, addressing vulnerabilities and boosting resilience. On the other hand, China is pushing its competitive industries such as machinery and new energy further up the value chain to become more cutting-edge. In a nutshell, innovation reinforces stability, which, in turn, fuels innovation.

Openness and win-win results are the defining features of China’s supply chains. One tree does not make a forest. All countries occupy different positions and enjoy varying comparative advantages within the global supply chain, and only through openness and collaboration can win-win results be achieved. At this year’s CISCE, Chinese and international exhibitors along the same supply chains have collaboratively set up joint booths to showcase key materials, technologies, and products across upstream, midstream, and downstream segments, facilitating resource coordination. Countries including Singapore and Peru, as well as multinational corporations such as Starbucks, Walmart, and Genertec, are hosting dedicated sessions at the CISCE, seeking friends, partners, application scenarios, and practical solutions.

Whether it’s Bowman who wants to move his factory to China, or the exhibitors who are closing big deals at the CISCE, they are “voting with their feet,” their choices speak for themselves. 

Supply chains that are stable, innovative, open, and built on win-win cooperation are a true common language. And that is precisely where the strength and appeal of China’s supply chains lie.
