On September 9, 2025, Ansheng International, led by its chairperson YANG Tingting and CEO ZHANG Liqiang, was invited to visit the Botswana Investment and Trade Center (BITC).

Mr. Olebile, CEO of BITC, extended a welcome to the Ansheng International. He stated that Botswana has achieved rapid economic development and maintained a sound economic situation. Apart from the pillar diamond industry, the Botswana government is committed to developing industries of manufacturing, agriculture and husbandry, and tourism, striving to build a diversified economy. As a country with the highest sovereign credit rating in Africa, Botswana attracts international investors with its stable political and social environment. In addition, BITC is dedicated to expanding channels for Botswana's products to enter the international market and building a national brand for Botswana's products.

Yang Tingting, Chairperson of Ansheng International, said that the company has long focused on friendly cooperation with African countries, and particularly regards Botswana as an ideal cooperative partner and investment destination. In June this year, the Embassy of the Republic of Botswana in China officially issued a letter of support for the establishment of the JD Botswana National Pavilion. The preparation of the pavilion has entered a fast track and the online store will open up new channels for more authentic Botswana products to enter the Chinese market.

On the same day, Ansheng and BITC teams conducted a new round of detailed communication on product selection, achieving remarkable results. At the end of the meeting, Mrs. Yang expressed gratitude to BITC for its strong support and assistance in the product selection for the Botswana National Pavilion. She also expressed the hope to further cooperate with the Export Promotion Team of BITC to explore more symbolic products of Botswana and the company could be a guide for more Botswana commodities to enter the large-scale Chinese market.

The Botswana Investment and Trade Center (BITC) was established in 2012 through the merger of the former Botswana International Financial Services Centre (IFSC) and the Botswana Export Development and Investment Authority (BEDIA). It aims at promoting investment, supporting enterprise development, creating opportunities for products to enter the market, and facilitating industrial diversification.
