CIIF reaffirms 'manufacturing edge'
Up to 500 new products and technologies made their debuts at the China International Industry Fair, which commenced in Shanghai on Tuesday. A majority of the products are tailored for the China market, reflecting the exhibitors' strong confidence in the domestic market and China's manufacturing capabilities.
The fair, which is being held amid China's ongoing efforts to regain industrial momentum since the COVID-19 epidemic, also saw several global debuts of products, according to Yao Chunyu, deputy general manager of Donghao Lansheng (Group) Co Ltd, one of the organizers of the CIIF.
The significant growth in new product and tech debuts is largely because there have been very few high standard industrial exhibitions this year, said Yao.
