Recently, the Barra do Dande Development Company (SDBD) held a roadshow in the People's Republic of China to present the Barra do Dande Free Trade Zone and Dande Park 1. 

The mission comes days after the groundbreaking ceremony for Dande Park 1 on November 10, in a diplomatic and economic offensive aimed at attracting Chinese investment and highlighting the industrial and logistical potential of the project. 

The agenda began with an official visit to the headquarters of BESTOO, a leading Chinese company in the energy sector and a strategic partner of the Free Trade Zone. The delegation was received by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chunlong Zhang, who expressed interest in setting up in the Barra do Dande Free Trade Zone as soon as possible.

The interactions reinforced the growing interest of Chinese businesses in expanding their operations in Angola, helping to create a favorable environment for the formation of new partnerships and the advancement of projects in Barra do Dande.
