The 20th China Hardware Expo is currently in full swing for investment and exhibition. This expo is scheduled to be held from September 26th to 28th, 2015 at Yongkang International Convention and Exhibition Center. The China Hardware Expo was born in 1996 and is a well-known, dynamic, and large-scale industry exhibition in China. It has always been regarded as a barometer of the national hardware industry.
Last year's 19th China Hardware Expo attracted 1602 domestic and foreign enterprises to participate, with a transaction volume of 12.59 billion yuan, an increase of 8.7% compared to the previous edition. The first online goods festival had a visit volume of 654000 people, with a transaction volume of 159 million yuan, and the online hardware expo had a visit volume of 904000 people.
According to the statistics of the investment and trading team of the organizing committee of this expo, as of July 20th, there have been 1772 declared enterprises from provinces (cities) such as Liaoning, Guangdong, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Shandong, Fujian, Hubei, Hebei, Zhejiang, etc. Among them, 1482 enterprises have declared 2386 standard booths, and 290 enterprises have declared a special booth area of about 20000 square meters.
On the morning of July 1st at 8:00 am, the online booth application for the 20th China Hardware Expo was officially launched. Early in the morning, the phones in the office hall of Yongkang International Convention and Exhibition Center were ringing one after another, and various inquiries about the declaration of the Expo were constantly coming in, leaving the staff overwhelmed.
Within one hour of the opening of the online application platform for the 20th China Hardware Expo (www.chhwf.com), 466 companies applied for this expo, including 368 companies applying for 643 standard booths and 98 companies applying for 6962 square meters of special booths. With the data on the application platform constantly refreshing, a total of 1022 companies applied on the first day, an increase of 12.6% from the previous session's first day application of 908 companies.

The enthusiasm of enterprises to apply for exhibition booths has significantly increased, with the number of registered enterprises, the number of standard exhibition booths, and the area of special exhibition booths all exceeding the first day application data of the previous Hardware Expo.
It's said that it's hard to find someone at the Hardware Expo, and it's good to be able to grab one, "said Ms. Zhou, the head of a local electric tool manufacturing enterprise. When she saw the reporter, she raised her phone and told the reporter:" Just received a message that the registration for the China Hardware Expo is too hot. I officially registered at 8 o'clock, and I was just over two hours late. The registration order has already been arranged for more than 700 people.
Coincidentally, Mr. Li, who is also a manufacturer of electric tools, drove to Yongkang International Convention and Exhibition Center early in the morning. Mr. Li urgently asked the staff about the operation method for booth application at the 20th China Hardware Expo, saying, "There is no column display on the online application platform for booths with double-sided openings. How can I operate it?" He also informed the people in the factory who were applying for booths in front of the computer on his phone, fearing that the late application would delay the exhibition. Mr. Li left Yongkang International Convention and Exhibition Center with peace of mind only after completing all the declaration procedures and being informed by the staff that the declaration had been successful.
Exhibitor He Weijun, who has participated in the China Hardware Expo for four consecutive years, said that participating in the expo has played a significant role in promoting enterprise products and brand awareness. So I pay attention to the registration updates of the China Hardware Expo in advance every year, hoping to promote products through the unique and influential brand exhibitions in China. I hope that this year, the company can also achieve good exhibition results.
The exhibition area of this year's expo is expected to expand to over 80000 square meters, and the scale of the exhibition will be upgraded again. The supporting services of the exhibition hall will be more complete, and we will continue our professional and innovative service attitude at a new historical starting point, providing a more authoritative, influential, and professional business display platform for hardware industry enterprises to mature and connect with global buyers.
