Because of the complected and changeable international economic environment, the exports have slowed in recent years. But Chenzhou City has boosted the enterprises to "go out" through guiding and accurate policies. For example, Chenzhou has improved the function construction of Comprehensive Bonded Zone, highway ports, iron-sea combined transport, customs, and other open platforms to comprehensively upgrade the level of export-oriented economic services through the "Export-oriented Economic Services Year" and other activities; has introduced policies and measures in a timely manner to support the development of export-oriented enterprises.

It was understood that in the first half of this year, driven by the development of many export-oriented enterprises in Chenzhou, the city realized a total import and export volume of $2.2 billion, an increase of 45%.
