Canton Fair ready to go back offline after 3 years

Businesses and government organizations are increasingly confident of boosting trade and commercial activities during the upcoming China Import and Export Fair, as the trade event is scheduled to fully resume its offline activities in April.

The trade event, widely known as the Canton Fair, will resume physical exhibitions after three years of COVID-19 prevention and control measures, setting off a new chapter in China's global trade, said Chu Shijia, director of the China Foreign Trade Center.

The fair will include a venue expansion for the first time, with the accumulated exhibition area increased from 1.18 million square meters to 1.5 million square meters.
