International events reflect a city's image and overall potential. Zhengzhou is gaining international recognition by hosting high-profile global events like the F1H2O UIM World Championship and the Global Cross-border E-commerce Conference. These events combined with growing international collaborations, are enhancing Zhengzhou's global presence.

In 2023, the China-Europe freight train import logistics channel for potash fertilizer in the Central Plains region began regular operations. The Henan Bonded Logistics Center integrates international fertilizer supply chains with bonded logistics services to support efficient agricultural production.

Residents now have a unique shopping experience with local cross-border e-commerce outlets selling nearly 10,000 international products for immediate purchase, thanks to Zhengzhou's Air Silk Road advantage.

The E-commerce Exhibition Trading Center in Zhengzhou Economic Development Zone offers approximately 10,000 products from 40 countries and regions worldwide to consumers.

China Gate Logistics Group is the nations leader in cross-border e-commerce charter services, offering six flights each week from Zhengzhou to New York as well as air routes to Brazil, Chile, Canada, Russia, and Mexico.

Zhengzhou has established a new industrial and trade integrated chain, boosting a cluster of cross-border e-commerce export industries and enabling Zhengzhou and Henan products to reach global markets.
