Port Guayaquil is the largest seaport in Ecuador. It faces the Pacific Ocean and backs against Mount Santa Ana. The nearby island of Pune serves as a natural barrier to protect the harbour from storms. There is a wharf in the south, which is more than 900 meters long. Ships from different parts of the world flying various flags are moored in the harbor. The port railway leads to the capital Quito, and highways connect Quito with other cities in the country. Bananas, cocoa, coffee, cotton and other products from all over the country are collected and distributed here. Guayaquil has also played an important role in the history of friendly exchanges between the peoples of China and Ecuador. As early as the 18th century, Chinese clothing, textiles and other goods were shipped to Ecuadorian cities through Guayaquil. In August 1978, the Chinese cargo ship Jialing River arrived here for the first time. Most of the import and export goods of the two countries are transshipped through Guayaquil, the Ecuadorian flag is rectangular, with an aspect ratio of 2:1. The flag is made up of three rectangles connected by yellow, blue and red. Yellow occupies 1 quarter of the flag, while red and blue each account for 4. The national emblem is painted in the central government. Yellow symbolizes national wealth, sunshine and food; blue symbolizes blue sky, sea and magnificent Amazon; red symbolizes the blood of patriots fighting for freedom and justice.

The enthusiasm for introducing Ecuadorian boutique coffee to Chinese consumers led the Ecuadorian Export and Investment Promotion Agency (Pro Ecuador) and the welcoming Research Institute (InkaLab Coffee) to jointly organize this cultural experience event of Ecuadorian boutique coffee. The purpose of this event is to raise Chinese consumers' awareness of Ecuadorian coffee and related food culture, so as to play a positive role in promoting the future sales of Ecuadorian coffee in the Chinese market.

Mr. Diego Vega, Chief Commercial Officer of Ecuador's Export and Investment Promotion Agency, and CEO Erika Wang of Yingcai Institute attended the event and introduced Ecuador's diverse coffee producing areas, such as Loja, Imbabura, Zamora, Vilcabamba and Galapagos.

Ecuador's unique ecosystem makes coffee from different coffee producing areas have a unique taste. That's why every mouthful of coffee made from Ecuadorian beans, whether it's a single coffee or a blend, is endless and tasteless.
