China Trade Fair in Egypt presents promising prospect
THE third edition of China Trade Fair Egypt, held at Cairo International Convention Centre, has attracted double the number of exhibitors with 500 Chinese leading companies displaying more than 20,000 products.
The major product sectors at the three-day fair include textile and garments, home appliances, lighting, building material, gifts, household, hardware, tools and food, Xinhua reported.
"This is the third China Trade Fair in Egypt, the growing exhibitor number reflects the keen interest of Chinese supplier to do business with their Egyptian counterparts," said Zhou Chunxiang, project manager with Meorient international exhibition company which organised the exhibition.
"We hope to build a platform not only in Egypt, but also in Africa and the Middle East to help the Chinese companies enter the market and satisfy the demand in the regions," she said.
China Trade Fair is a series of trade shows held in nine countries including Poland, Turkey, South Africa, Jordan, Brazil, Kazakhstan, Egypt, the UAE (Dubai) and India; it is a part of the official platform of China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative.
Mohammed al-Sayyed, an importer of home curtains, reached a business deal with a Chinese company in less than half an hour. He said it was the fastest business deal he has ever done as an importer, adding that the exhibition helped him save money as he planned to travel to China to order products for his business in Egypt.
"I have done this here... the real costs were the money I paid for the translator and the fuel for my car," he added.
