Goodfarmers was also at the opening and would like to also promote imported fruit from the Netherlands on Tmall.com. "We held a Conference pear tasting activity outside the meeting room. Both guests and employees from Alibaba appreciated the flavour of the conference pears. Many of the guests and employees asked us where they could buy the pears and if Tmall will carry them from the 11th of November online as well," said a spokesperson from Goodfarmer.
