With more than 200 booths spread across 3,000 square meters, the exhibition saw over 120 Chinese exhibitors showcasing a diverse range of products, from clothing and home textiles to bags and shoes. Notable Chinese brands like Peak, Aparso, and Mizuda were featured as part of a special promotion supported by China's Ministry of Commerce, highlighting their quality and expanding their international presence.
