Overview: Companies manufacturing in China must choose whether to ship through Hong Kong or the mainland. Business and government leaders in Hong Kong are promoting the territory as the better choice in supply-chain management. Hong Kong has given up trying to compete with mainland China for most manufacturing business. Never mind the territory's reputation for efficiency, stability, low taxes and minimal regulation - it simply can't match the mainland's army of cheap labor and booming factories, churning out every conceivable consumer and industrial product. But now, China is siphoning off business in a sector that Hong Kong considers vital to its future well being: logistics and supply-chain management.
