As one of the largest trade fairs for the cross-border e-commerce industry in China, CCBEC expects to attract 2,500 exhibitors and over 100,000 visitors from across the country. In support of the government’s anti-pandemic measures, and to safeguard the health and safety of participants, the organisers have decided to defer the trade fair after consultations with key stakeholders. The organisers are now coordinating with the venue and all involved parties to confirm new show dates, with an eye to provide the most effective trade fair as possible for the cross border e-commerce industry. The organisers would like to express their thanks to participants for their ongoing support and understanding.
To promote the development of trade and business services in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, the concurrent ‘Greater Bay Area Trade in Services Fair’ (GBATS) will also be deferred as CCBEC. GBATS will attract both overseas and domestic companies, particularly those from across the entire trade services chain in the Greater Bay Area. Exhibitors and trade visitors will be presented with a quality platform for demonstrating their products and services, as well as abundant investment and financing opportunities. Taking place under the same roof, the two trade fairs are anticipated to create high business efficiency and a huge synergy effect.
The China (Shenzhen) Cross Border E-commerce Fair is co-organised by the China Chamber of International Commerce, China Merchants Exhibition Management (Shenzhen) Co Ltd, Messe Frankfurt (Shenzhen) Co Ltd, Beijing Talent International Exhibition Co Ltd and Shenzhen OCT Greater Bay Development Co Ltd.
