Focused on high quality domestic furniture, the second phase of the fair began last Wednesday and occupied an area of 515 thousand square meters, with 25 thousand booths and the participation of 10,000 exhibitors-270 more than in the previous edition.
The event also registered a growth in the number of companies recognized for its excellence: more than 2,400 exhibitors are classified as high -tech companies of national level, “small giants” or national champions of the manufacturing industry, an increase of 100 companies over last year.
Organized in three phases, the Canton Fair takes place between April 15 and May 5 in the city of Guangzhou, southern China. The first stage focused on advanced manufacturing. The second privileged the furniture and household items segment, while the third will be dedicated to products aimed at improving the quality of life of consumers.
Considered China’s main commercial showcase, the Canton Fair not only reinforces the importance of the country in global trade, but also highlights its effort to add more innovation and quality to exported products.
