The 51st China International Furniture Fair (CIFF Guangzhou) concluded on March 31st, setting a new record for attendance.
The eight-day event attracted 380,763 professional visitors from 166 countries and regions, a 27.88% increase from pre-pandemic levels in 2019.
The fair showcased approximately 4,000 domestic and international brands across five major themes, covering an exhibition area of 700,000 square meters. The three exhibitions of the fair included Home Furniture, Office and Commercial Space, and CIFM/interzum Guangzhou.
“The high attendance, professionalism, and business opportunities exceeded many exhibitors’ expectations, making it a resounding success for all involved,” CIFF said.
“As a leading home furnishing fair in China and around the world, CIFF Guangzhou has integrated the functions of both exhibition and conference, with 125 conferences and forums held this year to amplify its influence. This year’s fair also marked the debut of the first Global Furniture Development Forum. By bringing together industry leaders, experts, and professionals from around the world, the forum provided a platform for discussions and exchanges on the future of the furniture industry.
“CIFF Guangzhou has always been committed to meeting the growing demand for better living and promoting the high-quality development of the furniture industry. The next CIFF Guangzhou is scheduled to be held in March 2024.”
