Hear what buyers say

“Wisely is an importer and distributor of licensed products and premium items in Thailand. We also operate 40 retail outlets in department stores. The Hong Kong Gifts & Premium Fair is an important annual trade show for us. We take the opportunity to source new products and we can always find many suppliers here. We have already identified five to six new suppliers from Hong Kong and the Chinese mainland for licensed Disney products and premium goods such as stationery and packaging bags. We expect to finalise deals after looking into the samples and catalogues. The orders will be in the region of US$500,000 to US$800,000.”
Koramith Tahvisavivit, Managing Director, Wisely Tradings Co., Ltd., Thailand

“In business for over 20 years, CleggPromo has established a strong presence in the promotional merchandise industry. We are particularly strong in light and sound-related items. We visit the Hong Kong fair every year. This is a good and well-organised trade event. I like the layout of the fairground, making it so easy to walk around and negotiate business. So far, I’ve found 15 potential suppliers from the Chinese mainland for some new products such as LED items, toys and sound products. We will send information and photos back to our office first. I expect to confirm pricing and orders in about four weeks’ time. The total amount of initial orders with the new vendors is estimated at US$80,000.”
Chris Hodge, President, CleggPromo, USA

Hear what exhibitors say
“We have been participating in the Hong Kong fair for more than 20 years. In conjunction with UK Trade & Investment, British Jewellery & Giftware International has brought together 19 exhibitors to showcase an exciting range of products in the UK Pavilion this year. We are renowned for our longstanding tradition of quality, design and innovation. This year, we’ve increased our presence with more exhibitors and the preliminary feedback from visitors has been overwhelming. We’ve been very busy making contacts with customers across the globe. The Hong Kong fair is the gateway to the world, not just to the Chinese mainland. We look forward to meeting with more buyers this year.”
Rebecca Gough, Senior Co-ordinator, British Jewellery & Giftware International, the organiser of the UK Pavilion, UK

“Established in 2010, we have created a lovable hand-knitted little bear to share your feelings under the HUGU brand. The 100% handmade bears are equipped with a high-quality audio system that can record your voice and message. They have been well received in Japan, USA and Russia. We are making our first-time presence in the Hong Kong fair to find high-end distributors and retailers for business expansion. The responses have been very positive. We’ve received serious interest from many potential partners including buyers from Korea, Australia, Taiwan, Japan, the Chinese mainland and UAE. Some of them are very keen to enter into cooperation with us. We will be highly selective in choosing partners to build long-term business relationship. This is a good fair. Everything is clear and well managed. It offers a great opportunity for us to explore the potential of business development in this part of the region."
Lauris Rasa, Creator, A. Dew Ltd., Latvia
