Trade fair industry in Hong Kong 

Hong Kong has officially taken steps to open up to tourists. The quarantine related to Covid-19 is no longer required. Along with the news, many trade shows in various industries not only offer remote exhibitions, but it is finally possible to come and see the products with your own eyes.

Popular imports from Hong Kong

The most popular items imported from Hong Kong are electrical machinery, equipment, and computers. Optical, technical, medical apparatus, perfumes, cosmetics, and plastic articles are also imported. Art items, including antiques, are imported from Hong Kong as well. Equally popular are gems and precious metals.

Hong Kong’s achievements in the congress and exhibition area

In 2020 Hong Kong was granted the title of “Best City for Meeting in Asia” by the Smart Travel Asia Awards. The same year, it received the “Most Anticipated Overseas Meeting & Incentive Destination (Short Haul)” award from China Travel Industry Awards.

Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC)

Hong Kong Trade Development Council, or HKTDC for short, is an organization established in 1966 to facilitate international trade for Hong Kong companies. One of its tasks is also to promote a positive image of the city. Thanks to HKTDC and its over 50 years of experience, many small and medium-sized businesses have a chance to develop in the international arena and gain business partners from around the world.

Hong Kong Development Council is responsible for organizing most of the events in this region.

Why should you go to trade shows in Hong Kong?

Hong Kong is a fantastic place, different from the Western cities. Going there means we will get to see things we have yet to come across before. Hong Kong will provide you with many new cultural experiences, making the trip even more enjoyable.

Apart from the cultural aspect, it should be mentioned that fairs in Hong Kong are always organized at the highest level. The exhibition centers are modern and spacious. The most popular Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center can accommodate up to 140,000 people daily.

Being the main center of international conventions and exhibitions in Asia, we can be sure that we will meet exhibitors from various countries all over the continent at trade fairs. It will provide a wide range of products and services and can be a great opportunity to trade and expand potential business networks.

We can easily communicate in English there, as it is next to Chinese, the second official language of Hong Kong. It is another advantage of holding fairs in this place, as it will make it easier to conduct business talks.
