Bangkok--31 Oct--Asia News Center
Being in Hong Kong - a cosmopolitan city, one of the benefits is that there are many exhibitions. Some of them are not ordinary exhibitions but super-large international exhibitions which gather top suppliers from the Asia-Pacific region. Today, I have been to the AsiaWorld-Expo to visit the Global Sources Fashion Trade Fair and Global Sources Lifestyle (Gifts & Home) Trade Fairs which were opened on 27 October. In these two exhibitions, you can find gifts, premiums, home products, clothing, apparel and so on in one go. These products can satisfy your demands for fashionable clothing, innovative home products and daily necessities. People who are interested remember to grab your time and visit the exhibitions in these few days before the end.
Global Sources Lifestyle (Gifts & Home) Trade Fair is the one and only one sourcing show in Hong Kong which is specialized in creative, curated and innovative gifts, premiums and home products. It focuses on the attitude and concept of quality of life. Most of the products concentrate on sports, health and environmental protection. Apart from major exhibitors, I find the WOW Sparkle Hong Kong Smart Designs exhibition interesting. Those are products on the market now and some of them are creative with a great sense of localness. There are cutting-edge environmentally-friendly products as well, it is happy to see there are more and more people contributing to the protection of our planet.
It is important to be prescient when running a business. Therefore, a Colour Trends Area has been set up in collaboration with Pantone. You can check out the future market trends here and get ready for making big money.
Global Sources Lifestyle (Gifts & Home) Trade Fair is down to earth for showcasing the most useful items in daily lives, everyone can have a good time here. I have discovered a few booths with attractive and impressive products to share with you. The first one is a brand which is specialized in the production of water bottles and food boxes. Their products have diversified designs which suit people of different ages and have good quality as well. The marble cutlery set in the bottom right of the photo can catch up with the current trends.
Some featured exhibition products:
- The three-dimensional printed children's water bottles are cute and with a good texture. The graphics are designed by their company.
- They also provide customized service, you can appoint them to print specific wordings on the bottles. This service is useful for companies when they have to make premiums.
- Water bottles with simple and stylish designs are eye-catching too. The use of colours and the wooden texture of the cover are adding points. Bringing these bottles out to use would turn you into a stylish person.
- Cute animals hot water bags, in addition to their lovely appearances, they are practical too. Using them as hot water bags is already adorable, they can also be put in the microwave to heat and be used to support your wrist while using the computer. This product is now available in some places like Shanghai. It is undeniable that this item is going to be very popular in the coming winter.
- Among the household items, there are beautiful tablewares and some brands producing eco-friendly bamboo fibre tableware. Different from the ordinary bamboo fibre, their tablewares look like ceramic products even when we take photos. The design and pattern are trendy. Their products are lightweight too..
At the same time, Global Sources Fashion Trade Fair is running in the opposite pavilion. This exhibition is diversified and focuses on products like fashion bags, luggage, sports fashion and activewear, accessories, footwear, apparel and fabrics, etc. It gives you a sense of visiting a department store as it is easy to be dazzled and overwhelmed by all the different products. In addition to Mainland China exhibitors, there are suppliers from all over the world to facilitate buyers to purchase at once.
To promote local creations and works, the Rising Designers Corner has been set up. This corner is for students from local universities to showcase their own designs. The Pantone Trends Spotlight is also a zone that cannot be missed. It is surprised to know that these colours will be popular next year. There will be fashion shows in the exhibition hall too. If you are interested in watching models performing catwalks, remember to check the schedule.
