2017.10.31
on october 27, the 36th jinhan fair for home & gifts was successfully concluded in poly world trade center expo in guangzhou, china. the seven-day exhibition attracted 50,000 professional buyers and visitors from more than 160 countries and regions all over the world, which recorded a slight increase of 3% compared with that of last year. around 56% of the total visitors are from europe and america.
major markets in europe and american are under recovery and the global economy is showing an upward sign. many exhibitors said that the total turnover of products sending to the american market had maintained its increase rate at 10-15% during the first half of 2017, with a revival in the european market as well. under such intense competitions in the export market, exhibiting enterprises, which are confronted with uncertain factors such as the increased price of raw material, rising packing cost and fluctuating exchange rate, have all strived to change their business mode for new opportunities.
the stage of development that features ‘cost scale’ has passed, and the design and r&d have become the new prime driven factors to the enterprises’ development. exhibitors will invest more in design and r&d to raise the added-value of their products, and at the same time adjust the combined application of various materials to alleviate the impact brought by the fluctuating costs to pricing. an increasing number of enterprises are actively building up their core competitiveness by integrating design, quality and services together, paying great attention to clients’ demand as well as conducting consumer market survey, seeking to drive innovation by promoting r&d and highlighting the manufacture quality to extend further towards the upstream of the value chain.
meanwhile to help exhibits fully show their features and advantages within limited space, after several sessions of promotion by the organizer, more and more exhibitors come to realize the importance of using window display. this session’s booths appearance and window display design are refined and exquisite in various styles. the visual effect and color matching of this year’s arrangement give out a completely fresh look, which greatly enhance the attractiveness of the booths. the fair is crowded with good negotiation atmosphere and a full display of the charm of being a flagship exhibition in the industry.

“these years the
procurement that our company make in jinhan fair is more and more stable. in
the recent years, we have paid frequent visits to the chinese factories. in the

recent five years, it is the rising designing ability that truly surprises us.
such is an advantage of cost efficiency brought by the cluster effect in the
industrial district.”
