Setup, in the details
The fair begins long before the doors open. Our procurement team spent the week before pulling samples, cross-referencing each SKU against the shipping manifest, and labelling units one by one — no skipped lines, no shortcuts.
On the ground in Guangzhou, the team arrived early to dress the booth across the four product walls — household cleaner, reed diffuser, plug-in air freshener, and seasonal collections — calibrating lighting, fitting shelf risers, and rehearsing the visitor flow before the doors opened on Thursday morning.

On the floor — new collaborations
Booth 16.3 D30 E14-15 sat in Phase 3 of the fair, the household consumer goods phase. Across the five days the business development team walked buyers through household cleaner ranges, hand-care formulations, and the plug-in air freshener wall — covering private-label scope, MOQs, certification packs, and lead times.
Several first-time visitors turned into program conversations on the spot: spec briefs taken at the table, sample requests written up, and follow-up windows scheduled before the day ended. We're grateful to every buyer who spent time with us — and especially to the partners returning from prior fairs whose programs are still growing with our team.

Wrap-up
Each evening ended at the negotiation table: a quick debrief, a tally of leads, and a triage of which follow-ups would go out before the next morning. By Monday's close, the team had logged conversations with buyers from across Latin America, the Middle East, Europe, North America, and Southeast Asia.
Now the work moves home — samples shipped, follow-up briefs drafted, quotations turned around inside the week. If we spoke at the fair, your specs are already in motion. We'll see you at the spring edition in April.
