Spring edition of China (Shenzhen) Cross Border E-commerce Fair to merge with September 2022 show

20 Apr 2022

In accordance with the government’s ongoing pandemic control efforts, the organisers of CCBEC Spring have decided to merge this year’s fair into the larger September show. The move will integrate industry resources in a more efficient manner.

The CCBEC organisers will merge the spring and September editions into one larger trade fair which will be held from 14 – 16 September 2022. The change will deliver the best possible show for both exhibitors and visitors, and will allow industry players to concentrate their resources on one trade fair this year amid the evolving pandemic situation.

In an effort to help business leaders seize every business opportunity and keep abreast of industry trends before the show opens, a new online service named ‘CCBEC 365’ has been launched. The digital platform includes an Online Business Matchmaking Service and Cloud Forum. Various online events to facilitate more business connections will be held throughout the year, with more details to be announced in due course.

As one of China’s largest and best-known cross-border e-commerce trade fairs, CCBEC in September is expected to attract 2,500 quality suppliers from almost every product category. The gamut of cross-border service providers as well as e-commerce platforms will showcase their competitive edge across an estimated ​​100,000 sqm of exhibition space, while a series of thought-provoking fringe events will also be lined up for participants. This year’s agenda will cover five major areas: industry development, policy and regulations, marketing strategies, supporting services, as well as investment and financing. 

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.
