Established in 1989, Rio has been providing top-quality commercial lighting products. The Autumn Lighting Fair is celebrating its 25th edition this year and we have been participating in this fair since its first edition. As one of the world’s most important lighting fairs, the Autumn Lighting Fair has helped us to establish a steady distribution network in Europe and South America. The fair provides a perfect platform for us to meet with our exclusive distributors and also look for new distributors. At this year’s fair, we have met with potential buyers from our new markets such as Australia, New Zealand and Southeast Asia. The number of new buyers visiting our booth has increased by 30% as compared to the 2019 edition. Buyers from Australia and South America have placed onsite orders for our commercial lighting products. We expect the amount of our onsite orders will increase by 50%.

We specialise in the design and production of commercial lighting, residential lighting, solar lighting and ceiling fans with lights and provide ODM service to big brands such as Philips and OSRAM. We are returning to this year’s Autumn Lighting Fair to meet with our old customers and find new buyers. We are showcasing our latest products including Matter-based ceiling lights and ceiling fans with lights in the debut Connected Lighting zone. We have received favourable responses from large customers who are brand owners from Europe and the US. We are happy to meet them in person and see that they accept our new products. Business atmosphere is vibrant. We expect the fair will generate US$1 million in sales turnover to our company.

Founded by several architects in 2020, Dearborn Sourcing imports building materials and lighting products and supplies to catering and entertainment companies in the US. I took three business trips to Mainland China this year to look for reliable OEM suppliers who can produce customised lighting products for our company, but I couldn’t find any suitable manufacturers. I am so happy to have attended the Hong Kong International Lighting Fair (Autumn Edition) for the first time because I have found five potential suppliers who can meet my requirements through the HKTDC’s Click2Match service. These potential suppliers offer track lights, optics and drivers for track lights, decorative lights and LED strips. I will purchase US$500,000 worth of lighting products through this fair. The Autumn Lighting Fair is an efficient and one-stop sourcing platform for all kinds of lighting products. I’ll definitely come back next year and also recommend this fair to other lighting companies in the US.

ELEMAC is a wholesaler and supplier of electrical devices and lighting, with GCC countries as its major markets. I have visited the Hong Kong International Lighting Fair (Autumn Edition) and the Hong Kong International Outdoor and Tech Light Expo for several times. At this year’s twin fairs, I am looking for flood lights, stadium lights, high bay lights, solar lights and smart city lights. The twin fairs are huge and bring together a lot of suppliers and new products. At the Outdoor and Tech Light Expo, I have decided to buy US$700,000 worth of smart city lights from two suppliers. At the Autumn Lighting Fair, I have found two to three potential suppliers from Mainland China for the supply of stadium lights and multi-purpose solar lights with CCTV cameras and wireless charging function. I am still looking for new suppliers of recessed downlights, panel lights and high bay lights. I plan to place onsite orders worth US$300,000-350,000 at the Autumn Lighting Fair.
