Promoting trade in wine |
| |
Many factors have contributed to Hong Kong's emergence as a wine trading and distribution hub in Asia, including the abolition of duty on wine and beer, and the creation of the HKTDC Hong Kong International Wine & Spirits Fair, both in 2008. Hong Kong's proximity to, and unique relationship with, the Chinese mainland are also important to international buyers. |
