From September 16 to 19, 2023, the 20th China-ASEAN Expo (CAEXPO) was held at the Nanning International Convention and Exhibition Center in Nanning, capital of south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Shandong hopes to take advantage of the excellent occasion to promote "Premium Shandong Products" from agriculture to ASEAN countries and even the world and strengthen international trade in agricultural products and exchanges and cooperation in agriculture with ASEAN countries.

In 2022, Shandong's foreign trade with ASEAN countries totaled 37.26 billion yuan, of which 12.48 billion yuan was from imports and 24.78 billion yuan came from exports. From January to July 2023, Shandong's foreign trade with ASEAN countries amounted to 19.28 billion yuan, of which 6.39 billion yuan was from imports and 12.89 billion yuan came from exports.
