Jiujiang Municipal Government Delegation Holds In-depth Talks with Protus Group’s Singapore Headquarters to Explore New Chapters in Cooperation
Recently, in the vibrant business hub of Singapore, the Singapore headquarters of Protus Group hosted an important delegation from Jiujiang, China. Led by Chen Shuilian, Vice Mayor of the Jiujiang Municipal People’s Government, the delegation traveled specifically to engage in a thorough and productive exchange with Protus Group on key topics such as deepening cooperation and promoting regional economic development.
Protus Group, founded in 2013, specializes in operations and structural design within the supply chain industry. Its core businesses encompass trade, warehousing, logistics, procurement, and sales, with operations spanning Singapore, Vietnam, Laos, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Japan, and other countries and regions. The company’s cumulative transaction value has exceeded US$20 billion. As global industrial chains evolve, cross-border investment, consumption, and exports have become increasingly significant under traditional economic growth models. In 2019, Protus Group relocated its headquarters to Singapore to launch cross-border international supply chain Service and focus on supply chain operations and retail within the Southeast Asian consumer goods sector and its upstream and downstream industries. The visit by the Jiujiang Municipal Government delegation represents an important opportunity for Protus Group to expand into the Chinese market and deepen regional cooperation.
The visit by the Jiujiang delegation fully demonstrated the Jiujiang Municipal Government’s high regard for exchanges and cooperation with Protus Group. Led by Vice Mayor Chen Shuilian, the delegation included Shi Lan, Director of the Jiujiang Municipal Bureau of Commerce; Liu Yang, Chief of the Industrial Division of the Jiujiang Municipal Government Office; Chen Shuzhen, Director of the Lianshi District Bureau of Commerce in Jiujiang; and other heads of relevant departments.

During the exchange meeting, Vice Mayor Chen Shuilian took the lead in introducing to Protus Group the current status of Jiujiang City’s economic and social development, its industrial layout, and future plans. He emphasized that Jiujiang is situated at a crucial node within the Yangtze River Economic Belt. Leveraging its unique geographical advantages and abundant resources, the city is vigorously advancing industrial upgrading and opening-up, particularly in the fields of advanced manufacturing, modern logistics, and supply chain management, where there is a strong demand for innovative development. Vice Mayor Chen Shuilian expressed his sincere hope: “Jiujiang looks forward to Protus Group fully utilizing its global perspective and expertise in supply chain management to achieve complementary advantages with local enterprises, thereby jointly driving the local economy toward high-quality development. Protus Group’s leading experience in the industry is sure to inject new vitality into Jiujiang’s industrial upgrade.”

Through joint collaboration, both parties are sure to achieve mutual benefit and win-win outcomes.”
On Protus Group’s side, the company comprehensively showcased its core competencies in global supply chain management, cross-border resource integration, and technological innovation during the talks. Leveraging Jiujiang’s industrial characteristics, Protus Group put forward a series of targeted cooperation proposals. The head of the group stated: “Jiujiang’s industrial foundation and strategic positioning are highly aligned with Protus Group’s development direction. We plan to use digital supply chain solutions as our entry point to help local Jiujiang enterprises improve operational efficiency, expand into international markets, and actively engage in collaborative initiatives in the green and low-carbon sectors. Protus Group is confident that, through cooperation with Jiujiang, we can bring our advanced concepts and technologies to the city, thereby elevating its industries to new heights.”
During the talks, both sides engaged in in-depth discussions on specific topics such as logistics hub development, cross-border trade Service, and industrial chain collaboration, and reached a consensus on establishing a regular communication mechanism.

We look forward to Protus Group bringing more vitality to Jiujiang’s development and jointly writing a new chapter in government-enterprise cooperation. Of course, we also sincerely invite Protus Group to come to Jiujiang for an in-depth inspection.”
The participation of Protus Group will bring new opportunities and momentum to Jiujiang’s economic development.” In the future, the Jiujiang Municipal Government and Protus Group will take this exchange as a new starting point, continue to deepen mutual trust, actively explore multi-sectoral and multi-dimensional cooperation models, and contribute to Jiujiang City’s industrial upgrading and economic takeoff.
This in-depth exchange between the Jiujiang Municipal Government delegation and Protus Group has not only built a bridge for cooperation between the two sides, but also laid a solid foundation for Protus Group to further expand into the Chinese market and promote coordinated regional economic development.
