An initial road map for doing business in Jingdezhen, China is generating enthusiasm for companies considering selling their goods in Door County's sister city. The Ad Hoc Jingdezhen Sister City Advisory Committee has started the effort to make it easier to export Door County products, with help from the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation. Committee member Laura Vlies Wotachek says potential exporters are attracted to growing their business modestly or being part of a cultural exchange.
Space is already in place for Door County products at Jingdezhen's main mall in a converted ceramics factory.
