They chose two full plastic bags of food in less than 10 minutes.

Mr. Huang told Amanda reporter that last year his daughter’s friends sent a few imported food, among which there were Swiss cookies and zircon iron box packaged chocolate. The family tasted and felt pretty good, but at that time there were no such food in Yiwu. “This year we heard there is a European Pavilion so i accompany my daughter to come here to have a look. We did not expect there are so many fresh food. We buy a lot and if taste good, we’d like to come back to buy more before new year.”

In European Pavilion, imported food include cookies, sauces, macaronis, chocolate, candy, red wine, large-size canned beer etc., most of which are imported from Germany, Italy, Belgium and so on.
