Learn to understand advanced coffee planting, processing and trade experience, and promote the development of China's coffee industry. At present, Haiken is actively participating in the construction of Hainan free trade pilot zone and free trade port with Chinese characteristics, vigorously adjusting the industrial structure and cracking the situation of "one glue dominating" and "one agricultural monopolizing" situation. As one of the eight major industries in sea reclamation, coffee cultivation is an important industry in the tropical crop plate, and it is also a good carrier to participate in the construction of Hainan free trade zone (port). In the next step, Haiken will continue to speed up the development of the coffee industry, increase the publicity and promotion of "Mother Mountain Coffee", and constantly enhance the brand awareness and influence of "Mother Mountain Coffee". Hope that by holding more such events, strengthen the study and exchange with domestic and foreign coffee enterprises, at the same time continue to promote Hainan coffee from regionalization to internationalization, bigger and stronger Hainan coffee industry.
