On March 17th, the 18th China Cixi International Home Appliance Expo, which lasted for 3 days, opened, and the Ningbo Cixi Intelligent Home Appliance Technology Innovation Center signed a centralized contract.
With the theme of "new creation, new intelligent manufacturing and new retail", this exhibition is based on "systemic circulation", "double cycle", integrating "online and offline", combining "promoting consumption and expanding the market", comprehensively demonstrating the new achievements of Cixi's home appliance industry development, trying to attract global buyers to "come in", and assisting home appliance enterprises to "rush out" in the whole process. 213 Cixi home appliance enterprises, represented by Fangtai, Bull, Abbott, Langmu, Jianshi, Baogong, SanA Group, Cartier, etc., gathered to participate in the exhibition. Cixi home appliance enterprises accounted for 82.41% of the exhibition booths. The procurement leaders of key institutions such as the Russian procurement team, the US DG procurement office in Shanghai, Southeast Asian cross-border buyers, and Shengguang Media visited the meeting. More than 1800 purchasers from Shanghai, Henan, Shaanxi, Xinjiang, Shandong, Hunan, Liaoning, and other places registered in advance, and heavyweight guests such as Yiyatong, BYD Electronics, Zhaoyi Innovation, and Shanghai Panqi Microelectronics attended the meeting to share.
As the first professional home appliance brand event in the Yangtze River Delta region after the epidemic, this exhibition not only showcases the resilience and vitality of the Cixi home appliance industry to the outside world, but also showcases the unique competitiveness of the Chinese home appliance industry cluster represented by Cixi, which is difficult to replicate and replace.
