Elders Primary Wool tour of China 2009

 

28th March - 8th April 2009

Get on board and gain a competitive edge

Imagine placing yourself in the heart of the world’s textile industry. Tour some of China’s largest mills, talk to key industry reps and gain first-hand knowledge that will help set your wool growing enterprise above the competition.

There is no better way to place your business at the cutting edge of the international market.

Elders Primary Wool has put together the ultimate business trip for wool growers. We believe that by bringing New Zealand’s woolgrowers together with China’s textile industry we will help keep our wool industry strong. We’re looking for progressive woolgrowers to help us reach this goal.

There are many ways you and your farm enterprise will benefit from a tour through China with Elders Primary Wool.

  • Understand the role and value of your wool in the global textile industry in order to identify opportunities and challenges;
  • Develop first-hand knowledge of China’s business methods and processes when you tour some of China’s largest wool mills, including Tianyu, Zhongxin, YBE Nanshan and Sanli Processing;
  • Build relationships as you banquet with key representatives from a number of mills and spinners that use New Zealand wool;
  • Gain insight into Elders Fine Foods, our food services company that imports and distributes premium cuts of meat and beverages to Shanghai’s high-end hotels and restaurants.

 And it's not all work!

While you’re in China, Elders have organised a truckload of fun things to do and enjoy. In addition to building opportunities and knowledge with local mills, we’ll be spending time in three major cities along the east coast of China, including Beijing, Shanghai and Yantai.

  • Explore the Great Wall of China
  • Visit the Forbidden City
  • Stock up on local delights while shopping in Shanghai and Beijing
  • Have suits and shirts hand tailored for a perfect fit
  • Enjoy the amazing food China is famous for – including an organised Peking Duck feast in Beijing
