Amid the turbulent landscape of global trade, Yangpu's foreign trade enterprises in Shanghai have emerged as beacons of confidence and innovation. A case in point is Oujian Group, a leading foreign trade firm in Yangpu. By launching the "Yun Mao Tong" platform and refining its integrated supply chain of "trade + logistics + finance + data", the company has flourished under the government's targeted policy support, becoming a model of resilience for the region's export-oriented economy.

In parallel, Yangpu has been strategically guided by a "scientific and refined" approach. Initiatives such as hosting the "Export-to-Domestic Transition Forum" and smoothing the interface for dual circulation have provided a powerful impetus to foreign trade enterprises. The harmonious synergy between the government and enterprises is steering Yangpu's foreign trade towards steady progress, undeterred by the waves of challenges.

Harnessing the "bridge and link" strategy to break new ground, digital services fuel the upgrading of foreign trade

Oujian Group, a model foreign trade company in Yangpu, attributes its robust emergency response capabilities to government support.

Recently, a Polish-origin chemical shipment was under return threat for non-compliance with enhanced customs controls. Xinhai Customs Broker rapidly mobilized an interdepartmental task force. Leveraging its extensive expertise in customs declaration, the team managed to resolve compliance issues within only 48 hours, thereby averting substantial losses for the company. The emergency response not only validated Oujian Group's integrated supply chain of "trade + logistics + finance + data" but also showcased the efficiency of Yangpu's government-enterprise partnership model in trade facilitation.

"The targeted government support has bolstered our confidence, enabling us to confront challenges head-on in times of crisis," said Ge Jizhong, Chairman of Oujian Group. Oujian's "Yun Mao Tong" platform offers digital customs declaration services online for small and medium-sized enterprises. The group's subsidiary - Hub Trade Company leverages tariff planning to support exports to Belt and Road countries. Ougao Logistics, another subsidiary, has garnered acclaim through its Saudi project. All these highlight the group's commitment to "full-chain support" in foreign trade.

This successful mitigation of the Polish chemical import crisis showcases Yangpu's institutional strengths in global trade risk management. Xinhai Customs Broker's emergency intervention demonstrated its "expertise + digital platform" operational model. Additionally, the resilient government-enterprise supply chain has provided a reliable shock absorber for local enterprises navigating volatile international trade environments.

Currently, with government backing, Oujian Group is employing a variety of strategies to expand its presence in international markets. "The government-enterprise collaboration has boosted our confidence to forge ahead," said Ge in an interview. "Looking to the future, we'll deepen supply chain innovation and connect the key nodes of domestic and international circulation."

Government-enterprise collaboration boosts domestic sales, while e-commerce platforms fuels "dual circulation" growth

Amid global trade headwinds, Yangpu has recently launched a precision-support initiative for foreign trade enterprises.

The "Export-to-Domestic Transition Forum", initiated by the Yangpu Commission of Commerce, has emerged as a vital instrument for hedging risks and tapping into domestic demand. E-commerce platforms like Meituan, Douyin, and OCJ have forged deep connections with companies including CP and Oujian. By leveraging innovative approaches like green channels and multi-screen interactions, they are facilitating the rapid delivery of foreign trade products to domestic consumers.

This initiative has effectively eased the pressure of order outflow while simultaneously stimulating the domestic market through high-quality offerings, thus achieving a harmonious synergy between stabilizing foreign trade and boosting consumption.

In addressing the crisis of shipment return and bridging the dual circulation, Yangpu has established an ecosystem for government-enterprise collaboration in foreign trade expansion, underpinned by precise policies, data-driven momentum, and innovative services. As Secretary Xue Kan noted during his inspection, "The resilience and dynamism of Oujian Group shows the strength of Yangpu's export-oriented economy." With the concerted efforts of the government and enterprises, the regional foreign trade is advancing towards a new hub of high-quality development with a proactive and forceful approach, breaking through challenges and forging ahead.
