We are a Vietnamese printing and packaging factory established in 2006, mainly targeting the U.S., Europe, and Asia markets. The fair helps us reach new customers and understand market trends. HKTDC's Click2Match platform connected us with two potential customers from the Middle East and Asia, which was very useful. We have already received interest from customers in South Korea and other markets, with potential orders estimated at around USD 20,000.  

Founded in Hong Kong, we made our debut at this fair last year and have returned this year aiming at identifying high-potential buyers. Prior to the fair opened, we had already received contact information for 80 buyers from Turkey, Australia, Malaysia, and other regions through the Click2Match platform. During the fair, we also connected with buyers from Sweden, Australia, Japan and Korea, and attracted major UK retailers, leading Asian fashion brands, emerging businesses and hotel chains with specialised bag requirements, a diverse buyer mix of strong calibre. Notably, we observed a significant increase in Australian buyers this year. In addition, the organiser introduced a Green Solutions leaf label at our booth this year to highlight our green solutions, enabling buyers readily identify us as a green packaging provider.

Our company mainly produces stickers, packaging boxes and trading cards, a category that has surged in popularity in recent years. Through Click2Match and Scan2Match platforms, we secured pre-show matches with over 15 buyers from the UAE, Europe, the Americas, and Asia. The Green Solutions leaf label at our booth, which flags exhibitors offering green solutions, has proven especially valuable for European and American buyers. With their local markets now mandating eco-friendly packaging for imports, these buyers would only source from suppliers with recognised environmental certifications. As an international trading hub, Hong Kong brings our products to a global audience of buyers and creates the space for meaningful conversations, a real catalyst for closing deals. Our target for this fair is to gather 30 to 40 new client contacts, and expect an estimated HK$1–2 million in orders.

In the past, most of the buyers we reached came from Chinese Mainland or Hong Kong. However, through this fair, the buyer delegations organized by HKTDC helped us develop customers from many different regions, including Indonesia and Malaysia, allowing us to tap into markets we had rarely accessed before. Through this fair, we also observed that the European market, due to the implemented plastic tax, has an urgent demand for eco-friendly alternative materials. The Green Solutions leaf logo has been very helpful, with many European buyers specifically visiting booths displaying this logo for a closer look. In addition, through the Click2Match and Scan2Match platforms, we received contacts from buyers in Australia, Russia, the UAE, and many other countries, making post-fair follow-up very convenient.

At this fair, we connected with several promising buyers from Australia who have the potential to become our overseas agents, helping us expand our international reach. At the same time, around 4 local buyers expressed strong interest in our products. We also met visitors from Sri Lanka, Cambodia, Vietnam, and other countries, reflecting the fair's high level of internationality. As a global platform, this fair successfully brings together a strong mix of buyers from Chinese Mainland and overseas, making it exceptionally appealing.

Through the Click2Match platform, we secured meetings with 5 buyers from Russia, the UAE, and other regions, who visited our booth during the fair for in-depth discussions on order details. We anticipate the fair to generate an additional revenue of approximately HK$2 million. Furthermore, the fair’s international reach allowed us to capture the growing demand from Australian, European, and Japanese markets, while we successfully expanding our buyer network into new regions such as Sweden, Russia, the UK, and Australia.

We mainly provide enterprises with one-stop warehousing, packaging, and transportation solutions. Our main objective at this show is to acquire new clients, and we have already connected with several Hong Kong buyers who expressed strong interest in food logistics. Our on-site re-packaging service has also been well received by buyers. In addition, we noticed that many visitors were using Scan2Match, a practical tool for exhibitors, as it allows us to instantly capture buyer information and identify their regions, helping us tailor the most suitable logistics solutions to meet our clients’ market needs.

The fair brings together clients from different places, including Australia, the US, Hungary, the UK, and Italy, making it one of our core channels for reaching overseas buyers. The buyer missions arranged by HKTDC further create numerous high-quality business opportunities. Based on past experience, we typically secure around two long-term clients at each edition of this fair, with each client placing annual orders exceeding US$100,000, and in some cases, reaching several hundred thousand dollars. HKTDC’s platform plays a pivotal role in our business growth, contributing approximately 3% of our annual revenue.

We have connected with 10 buyers from Brazil and other Asian markets, two of them have already planned a visit to our company after the fair for further business discussions. The Green Solutions leaf label on our booth also facilitates buyers recognise us as a partner focused on sustainable materials and eco‑friendly packaging. This fair brings us new product inspiration, connections, and business opportunities, we definitely plan to return next year.

Through the Click2Match platform, we were able to easily identify certified green suppliers and successfully met with 8 exhibitors, with a view to fostering future collaboration. At the same time, the fair enabled us to expand our supply network, especially connecting with exhibitors from Hong Kong, Dongguan, and other cities in the Chinese Mainland. Our total procurement value for this year is approximately USD 300,000.

We are specialising in hospitality packaging and industrial packaging. We came here specifically to source new suppliers with more competitive pricing, as well as discover innovative products for the Australian market. During the fair, I spoke with around 25 suppliers from Hong Kong and the Chinese Mainland, now moving towards actual orders. The first potential order could be approximately USD 70,000. This fair offered us a one-stop view of the offerings from suppliers across Hong Kong and the Chinese Mainland, providing an excellent opportunity to connect with the targeted suppliers. I used the Click2Match platform throughout the event, which saved me a great deal of time and made the entire sourcing process more efficient and productive.

I connected with around 12 new suppliers from the Chinese Mainland. We expect to place initial trial orders for innovative corrugated paper bags and other sustainable products, with an estimated value of US$35,000 to US$75,000. We plan to introduce corrugated paper bags, biodegradable moulded fibre products and bagasse paper bags to the e-commerce market in the UAE and across the Middle East as greener alternatives to traditional plastic packaging.

We come from Beijing, aim at identifying suitable partners for gift boxes and other paper packaging, to support our development of export markets. During the fair, we’ve met packaging suppliers from Shanghai, Huizhou, Shenzhen, Cixi and Qingdao, and shortlisted 3 to 4 companies with strong potential for cooperation. If the discussions progress smoothly and develop into long-term partnerships, our annual procurement could exceed 500,000 units, representing over RMB 1 million in business each year.

This is my first time attending this fair, having come on the recommendation of other Turkish companies. So far, I have visited eight exhibitors, several of which are outstanding. We plan to shortlist four suppliers for our annual stretch film orders, with a projected purchase volume of two tonnes per month at around USD 1,800 per tonne. The Scan2Match is very easy to use and effective, making my sourcing process very smooth.

The fair offers an impressive range of content, covering the entire packaging supply chain — from brand design to gift box production — which made it easy for us to explore a wide variety of products. We identified two to three potential suppliers, and expect to place follow-up orders of at least 10,000 boxes per gift box design. We will definitely be back next year.

I've spotted around 30 potential new suppliers here, and expect about five to turn into long-term partners. We’ve set aside a budget of roughly USD 2 million for orders with new suppliers. I've been to this fair several times, and it's still the best place to discover new suppliers, see products up close, and keep on top of market trends. On top of that, the business matching service and digital tools have made it so much easier to capture and manage supplier information for follow-up, no more lugging around a thick notebook or piles of business cards.

Prior to the fair, I had shortlisted 8 potential suppliers through Click2Match and arranged onsite visits, ultimately identifying 3 promising exhibitors, this helped me efficiently pinpoint my targets. I also came across a very interesting metal printing company at the fair, which I hope to develop into a new partner. The expected total procurement amount is substantial. The fair offers a wide variety of products, especially with many exhibitors from Chinese Mainland, it’s my target market. The fair experience has been excellent.

I came across many new technologies at the fair, such as new ink coatings on tin cans, as well as eco-friendly materials like compostable options. The Scan2Match platform is very useful, I simply scan the QR code to capture company information. I have already found a highly potential supplier from Chinese Mainland, I expect to work with 3 to 4 suppliers in total, with very substantial order volumes.

Prior to the fair, I had already used the Click2Match platform to identify 6 exhibitors and schedule onsite meetings, which significantly boosted my efficiency. Among them, I have shortlisted two as promising potential partners. Many exhibitors at the fair placed a strong emphasis on sustainability, which I found highly inspiring. Overall, it has been an excellent sourcing experience.
