8 Hong Kong Fairs Back-To-Back-To-Back ....

Hong Kong recently offered a smorgasbord of trade shows with 8 different shows held con-currently in two huge venues, the Hong Kong Convention Center and the AsiaWorld Expo. We walked miles and miles of floor space to get the latest trends and to get ideas on further improving exhibit services in the country.

The Canton Fair in Guangzhou China is firmly established as one of the biggest trade shows in the world.

Thousands of exhibitors, visitors from all over the world, and literally millions of products to view, it is amazing that done twice a year, this fair is major business hub for the whole of China.
