As one of the central cities and the economic and financial center in China, Shanghai is a thriving metropolis that is home to the first FTA in China mainland--China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone.
Located near the estuary of the Yangtze River, Shanghai borders the East China Sea to the east, with Kyushu, Japan, on the other side; Hangzhou Bay is to the south and Jiangsu Province and Zhejiang Province to the west, all of which make up the biggest economic zone--the Yangtze River Delta economic circle.

The Abrasives Industry Survey in Shanghai
There are not many abrasives manufacturers in Shanghai, and the largest number of business forms are switching process factories and merchants, a large number of which are internationally renowned abrasives enterprises, such as 3M, Saint Gobain, Klingspor, Munksjo, etc. A similar characteristic of those enterprises is that most of them are headquartered in Shanghai, China. Those agencies provide the best channel to achieve international communication. The information exchange and trade in Shanghai's abrasives industry has constantly promoted the abrasives industry level in China.
Strictly speaking, Shanghai is not a traditional abrasives manufacturing base in terms of raw materials, costs of production, or labor costs. However, Shanghai has its own advantages; namely, the developed economy. Since the opening and reform of China, the influx of foreign investment as well as the development of the Yangtze River Delta regional economy has boosted the growth of the abrasives industry in Shanghai, the geographical center of Jiangsu Province, Zhejiang Province, and the Shanghai region. Shanghai Grinding Wheel Factory has since gained considerable fame thanks to the unique status of Shanghai. Many other abrasives companies have sprung up as well.
Abrasives Exhibitions
The quantity of the exhibitions held in Shanghai ranks at the top nationwide, and the annual exhibition revenue accounts for nearly 50% of the entire country's exhibition revenue. The Hardware Shows in March and May each year are the professional shows that concern the abrasives industry, and abrasives manufacturers and hardware manufacturers from all over the world gather at each of these sessions. Besides that, Shanghai also holds machine tool shows, furniture shows, and woodworking machine tool shows that have continued to be popular among the abrasives industry. Shanghai's exhibitions have provided the best platforms for the abrasive enterprises in China and around the world.
Metal Market
There are several large-scale metal markets in Shanghai; the most famous markets are Shanghai Jiuxing Wholesale Market and Shanghai International Electromechanical Hardware City. Abrasives manufacturers from all over the world gather at the markets to do business, and they have become dependent on the convenience of Shanghai's information and transportation system.
