The World's Largest Trade Show
Held twice a year (April/May and October/November) in Guangzhou, the Canton Fair is massive. It covers millions of square meters and features tens of thousands of suppliers. Going in without a plan is a mistake.
Expert Tips for Success
- Pre-Register Online: Apply for your Buyer Badge online before arriving in China to save time and money. Use the Fair’s invitation to support your visa application.
- Know Your Phase: The fair is split into 3 phases (e.g., Phase 1 is Electronics & Machinery, Phase 2 is Consumer Goods, Phase 3 is Textiles & Medical). Only travel during the phase that matches your industry.
- Wear Comfortable Shoes: You will walk over 10 kilometers a day.
- Bring a Trolley Bag: You will collect hundreds of heavy catalogs and samples.
