China has become a major producer and exporter of hardware products in the world.
It is reported that in order to build a platform for domestic hardware products, China Hardware Products Association started to establish China International Hardware Exhibition in 2001, and according to the obvious characteristics of China's hardware industry's export-oriented economy development, the development goal of the exhibition is locked as Professional and international. At the same time, the exhibition venue was chosen to be more easily radiated to Shanghai, where the Yangtze River Delta region is the core production area. "From the current development situation, China International Hardware Exhibition has initially achieved the purpose of the exhibition, that is, doing business at home and foreign companies." Shi Lanlan said
In recent years, China Hardware Products Association has expanded the international influence of China International Hardware Exhibition through various measures. For example, the association officially joined the International Hardware and Housewares Association in 2000 and successfully hosted the 49th World Hardware Conference in Shanghai in 2006. In the same year, it also co-hosted China International Hardware Exhibition with Cologne International Exhibition Co., Ltd.; in order to successfully host this year's exhibition, the association has made great achievements in Las Vegas, Orlando, Cologne, Germany and Thailand in Southeast Asia. The promotion has attracted international buyers and exhibitors to achieve the desired results.
Speaking of the reasons for the rising international influence of China International Hardware Show, Zhang Dongli, Chairman of China Hardware Products Association, summed up four points: First, it has seized the strong demand for hardware products and economic globalization in China and the global economy. The industrial structure adjustment and the opportunity for the production base to transfer to China; the second is to establish and adhere to the market-oriented and technology-oriented exhibition positioning; the third is to effectively use international resources, especially with the German Cologne International Exhibition Company to achieve complementary advantages; Fourth, the exhibition Strategic planning, organization and operation, promotion and service are in place.
Zhang Dongli also reminded domestic producers, especially those with the vast majority of products or 100% of their exports, to increase their independent innovation products and high value-added products in the current development environment of rising raw materials, RMB appreciation and export tax rebate rate. The listing efforts, while using the China International Hardware Show to open up the international market, must not ignore the domestic market, we must learn to walk on two legs, which is the development principle that the Chinese hardware industry should follow.
