„In China, one of the country's largest annual trade fairs has opened in Shanghai. The East China Trade Fair features about 100 international companies seeking to enter the Chinese market, as well as more than 1,000 Chinese manufacturers looking for markets abroad. Organisers say this year's fair is the biggest in the event's history and hope it will exceed the $1.25bn in contracts signed last year. Everything from Inner Mongolian knitwear to teddy bears from Jiangsu province is on display in five huge exhibition halls at two separate venues in Shanghai.“

„Fortune's overseas adventures included investigations into the commercial opportunities in growing tea. Commissioned by the British East India Company, he disguised himself as a Chinese peasant as he smuggled out cuttings of the tea plant Camellia sinensis from China into India. These cuttings enabled India and Ceylon to become established as major growers and exporters of tea.“

„1600-1800s For 200 years East India sailing ships returning from China brought regular supplies. Although the steam ships bringing teas from India, Ceylon and Africa frequently berthed further down river, their cargoes would be brought up as far as London Bridge in the Clipper ships during the 1880's by barges. This area became the centre of the UK tea trade. The London tea trade has conducted the business of unloading ships, marketing and blending on both sides of the Thames at London Bridge and although the tea auctions were held north of the river, the South Bank boasted the most prestigious warehousing facilities.“
