LUSAKA, Nov. 5 (Xinhua) -- A Zambian company specializing in precious stone mining, honey production and handmade crafts aims to leverage the 7th China International Import Expo (CIIE) to tap into China's vast market.

Gilly's Trends Enterprise, one of nine Zambian companies participating in this year's CIIE, said that the expo is among the largest in the world, attracting extensive participation from diverse sectors. The company said the event is an invaluable opportunity to network with a wide array of enterprises.
