Shanghai plans for agricultural throughput at planned logistics centre

Shanghai will build an logistics trading centre for agricultural produce from the Yangtze River Delta and other parts of the country in the western suburban area, Xinhua reported.
The new trading centre will become a platform of exhibition, wholesale, trading and distribution for agricultural produce when it's completed in 2010, the report said.
Investors from provinces including Anhui and foreign countries like Canada and South Africa have been contacting the trading centre for co-operation.
Shanghai aims to become one of the major agricultural product distribution centres in China with the new trading centre, the report said.
