Part 02There are so many exhibitions,Why participate in the 18th National Food Expo?

Currently, there are numerous wine and food exhibitions in China, leaving exhibitors overwhelmed. So, why choose the 18th National Food Expo in 2024?

Large market, wide coverage, and strong effectiveness

The 18th National Food Expo in 2024 is based in Shandong, a major province for alcohol, food, beverage, and catering consumption in China, and has a good market advantage in the exhibition venue. As is well known, Shandong Province has a developed economy, and the accompanying catering industry also occupies an important position in China.

The developed catering industry, along with a large population and favorable economic conditions, has driven the rapid development of the alcohol, food, beverage, and catering industries in Shandong Province, and has also given Shandong Province a unique market advantage in holding related industry exhibitions.

In addition, Jinan, the host city of the National Food Expo, has a good geographical advantage and can better radiate the markets of surrounding provinces and cities.

Jinan, as the intersection area of East China, North China, and Central China, is an important transportation and economic hub in China. It is connected to the Capital Economic Circle to the north, the Yangtze River Delta Economic Circle to the south, the Central Plains Urban Agglomeration to the west, and the Shandong Peninsula Urban Agglomeration to the east. It is an important intersection point on the Bohai Rim Economic Belt and the Beijing Shanghai Economic Axis, and has strong market radiation to East China, North China, Central China, and other regions.

At the same time, Henan, Jiangsu, Anhui, and Hebei provinces surrounding Shandong Province are important consumer markets for China's alcoholic food and beverage industry, as well as important sources of professional audience for the National Food Expo.

From the composition of professional visitors to the National Food Expo in the past, in addition to Shandong Province and surrounding provinces and cities, more and more professional visitors from farther provinces are coming to visit the exhibition. At each National Food Expo, there is a large crowd of visitors, providing reliable guarantees for exhibitors to achieve their exhibition goals.

It is thanks to the vast market space, good market radiation, and a wide range of professional audiences that the National Food Expo has achieved good effectiveness. More and more new and old brands have achieved good market breakthroughs at the National Food Expo. This is also the main reason why more and more enterprises choose to participate in the National Food Expo.

Old brands, well-known brands, and high quality

The National Food Expo has been successfully held for seventeen consecutive sessions (once a year), and is a well-known professional exhibition in the industry.

Not only that, the National Food Expo is also a brand exhibition certified by the Global Exhibition Industry Association UFI. Among the numerous wine and food exhibitions in China, there are not many industry professional exhibitions that have obtained this certification.

At the same time, the theme exhibition of the National Food Expo - CHICE China Hot Pot Industry Chain Expo and Qilu Hot Pot Festival is also the first professional hot pot industry exhibition in China to pass UFI certification.

As the organizer of the National Food Expo, the Nanjing Sugar and Wine Fair and Anhui Sugar and Wine Fair under Gaobo China International Trade Exhibition Group are also professional exhibitions in the alcohol and food industry that have passed UFI certification. This is not commonly seen in domestic alcohol and food industry exhibitions.

In addition, Gaobo China International Trade and Exhibition Group has always adhered to the professional nature of B2B exhibitions, strictly controlling the investment and viewing stages to ensure a good investment and visiting environment for exhibitions.

Before each CNFE National Food Expo, the organizing committee conducts a detailed review and screening of exhibitors, and strengthens inspection efforts during the exhibition to prevent selling behavior and ensure the purity of the exhibition.

At the exhibition site, the organizing committee will also design negotiation and tea break areas to facilitate better communication and negotiation between exhibitors and professional visitors.

The year 2023 has come to an end and 2024 is about to begin. If you want to experience the lively atmosphere of communication and negotiation at the exhibition site, and if you want to better achieve market development, please come to the 18th National Food Expo in 2024!
