The 136th China Import and Export Fair (Canton Fair), which attracted thousands of merchants, came to an end on November 4. The reporter learned from the Municipal Bureau of Commerce that at this Canton Fair, the Shaoxing trading delegation participated in the exhibition carefully and reaped a lot of rewards, and the companies reached an intended transaction amount of US$130 million.
It is understood that at this Canton Fair, a total of 626 companies in our city participated in the exhibition, setting up 1,012 booths, and the total number of booths set a new high. The Canton Fair has become a big stage for “Shaoxing Smart Manufacturing”, and various famous new products representing Shaoxing’s new quality productivity have appeared one after another.
The Canton Fair has always been the “barometer” and “weather vane” of foreign trade exports. Many industries in our city, such as fabrics, clothing and home textiles, have participated in the exhibition in groups with the advantage of clusters, further promoting the brand of Shaoxing’s industrial clusters. At the third phase of the Canton Fair, our city organized 184 booths in four exhibition areas, covering fabrics, clothing, home textiles and other fields, helping Shaoxing enterprises expand international trade opportunities and achieving remarkable results. There was a constant flow of people in front of the textile and clothing booths in Shaoxing, who stopped to ask about product materials or learn about product design. “Our old American customer, who we have been in contact with for more than ten years, came here from Los Angeles this time and placed an order for three containers as soon as he arrived at the booth.” The person in charge of Zhuji Butterfly Textile Co., Ltd. said that the notebooks recording customers and orders at the exhibition were full, and the company’s overseas sales this year are expected to usher in a new breakthrough.
At this Canton Fair, the number of national high-tech enterprises, manufacturing champions, and specialized “little giants” participating in the exhibition in our city has increased significantly, and they have launched new generation products with higher technological content and added value, showing the strong strength of Shaoxing’s new quality productivity. Zhejiang Senge Intelligent Kitchen Appliance Co., Ltd. has 10 high-end new products unveiled at the Canton Fair, mainly targeting the high-end market in North America, and has obtained more than 1.4 million US dollars in intention orders. The explosion-proof hoists and IoT cranes of Shaoxing Nante Hoisting Equipment Co., Ltd. have won more than 1 million US dollars in orders from customers in the United States, Australia, Brazil and other countries at the Canton Fair. “Only by continuous innovation can we win the market. Take the company’s newly developed IoT crane as an example. This product can manage the entire life cycle of lifting equipment, realize real-time monitoring, abnormal alarm and pre-processing functions, and is generally recognized by foreign businessmen.” Zheng Fanggan, the head of the company, said.
The relevant person in charge of the Municipal Bureau of Commerce said that in the future, the city’s commerce department will further analyze the market situation and market trends based on the orders and transactions of the exhibitors of the Canton Fair, and accurately guide the city’s foreign trade work. At the same time, we will further promote the “Ten Industries, Hundred Exhibitions, Thousand Enterprises” market expansion action, help enterprises open up new markets, improve the quality of enterprise exhibitions, and pave the way for foreign trade enterprises to continue to expand their “circle of friends”.
