International freight forwarding business blooms
In the first half of this year, the environment of the international freight forwarding business in Xiamen city improved.
Enterprises were increasingly interested in this business, and the amount of enterprises coming to apply for the business increased significantly, according to the Xiamen municipal bureau of commerce.
To cope with the fervent application, the city’s commerce bureau took active measures to serve the enterprise, compacting the legal workday from five days to two days and improving the business procedure.
By the end of June, there were 183 enterprises filling the International Freight Forwarding Business Record Table, up 23.6 percent compared with 148 in the same period last year.
