Trading Update
Further to the announcement released earlier today, the Company
has been informed by the local Administration of Industry and
Commerce (the "AIC") of the results of their inspection last week.
Whilst the AIC is satisfied with the remedial work that the Company
has done to address the issues concerning the Company's systems and
filters raised by them last month, the AIC requires the Company to
carry out further training for the new staff that it has recruited
to strengthen its website monitoring activities. The Company
expects that this additional training will take place over the next
two weeks. In the meantime, the Company's operations remain
suspended.
The Board welcomes the increased investment in the training of
its employees which will further increase the Company's long term
effectiveness.
A further announcement will be made in due course.

About JQW plc
JQW is a leading domestic business-to-business e-commerce
provider based in the Chinese province of Jiangsu. The Group's core
business is its online B2B platform, www.jqw.com, which has been
developed to encourage domestic trade by connecting Chinese SMEs
with potential trade partners. Founded in 2004, the platform was
developed to help to market Chinese SME's websites. JQW has evolved
rapidly to become one of the top three B2B e-commerce website in
China in terms of traffic and operates, what the Director's believe
to be, the first dedicated B2B search engine, www.jqw.cn.
JQW offers a low-cost entry point for Chinese SMEs to promote
themselves and their B2B products to potential buyers. In order to
increase transaction opportunities, JQW offers its clients a broad
range of services including website design, commercial search
services and advertising.
There are approximately 50 million SMEs in China manufacturing a
diverse range of products, accounting for 60% of the country's GDP.
The number of mobile internet-access users in China stood at 871
million at September 2014 and investment in the country's
telecommunications infrastructure continues to accelerate. These
factors have driven an increased demand for domestic trade of B2B,
B2C and C2C e-commerce. With the majority of these SMEs requiring
the use of third party B2B e-commerce platforms to promote their
businesses and access trade partners, the Board believes that JQW
offers a robust and highly reputable branded platform. With
exposure in over 50 industry sectors and considerable scope for
future growth, JQW is in a strong position to capitalise on the
development of this market.
At the end of 2014, the Group had:
11 million Registered users
5 million Page views per day
1,046,000 Sheng-Yi-Tong members with website "shops"
241,000 Fee-paying members
600 Rated in the top 600 websites for global website traffic rankings
44 Sales agencies
