YiWu, as part of an experiment regarding the comprehensive reform of international trade, is the first city to lead the revolution in e-commerce in China. Therefore, the JUFE Research Team proceeded to visit the ‘Fei Tian Mai Guang Guang’ Group, an advanced commodity export enterprise in the e-commerce industry. Following an introduction by the CEO, the international students applied their knowledge on details of the Group's development progress, its market share of products, international trade payment procedures and e-commerce development trends.

After the research visit, all students appreciated this experience for deepening their understanding of Chinese enterprises, commodity market and e-commerce.
