Shanghai's connection with Belt and Road nations has been further elevated thanks to a partnership to expand e-commerce ties with Serbia.

The "Silk Road E-commerce" Serbian specialty promotion opened on Saturday as part of the monthlong Shanghai Silk Road E-commerce Carnival.

It also follows a latest memorandum of understanding signed by China's Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Internal and Foreign Trade of the Republic of Serbia to deepen collaboration in e-commerce earlier this week.

The China-Serbia Free Trade Agreement is set to take effect on July 1 this year.

Shanghai has close ties with the central European nation and the trade volume between Serbian and Shanghai doubled over the the past five years.

Popular products include wine, honey, beef and lamb.
