Boosted by recent innovations, the aquarium industry is experiencing a period of rapid development in China both for export and the domestic market, urging the need for a modern, reliable trade platform that listens to the professionals and understands the changing dynamics of our industry.

Aqua Fair Asia (AFA), is created by industry professionals and held in Guangzhou, at the heart of the global aquarium industry. It meets these needs and brings the business to the next level. Designed to be not only an exhibition but a comprehensive business accelerator ecosystem, Aqua Fair Asia combines high level conferences, business talks, trade match-making, factory tours and educational programs.

Aquarium industry leaders, including HAILEA, Minjiang Aquarium, BOYU, RESUN, SUNSUN, Chuangxing Electric, JEBO, Lenyo Aquatics, have expressed strong support. Many more will exhibit at AFA, after many years away from any exhibition in China. The president of the Guangdong Aquarium Industry Association, Yang Qinquan, recently declared: “The existing aquarium trade platforms were relying on old models that failed to modernize and do not fit our industry any more. Let us seize the opportunity of this modern trade event to revitalize the aquarium industry, promote better practices and develop a sustainable and healthy global aquarium industry.”

Aqua Fair Asia makes business happen. Its modern approach to trade breathes new life into the aquarium industry and brings three key elements to the equation that professionals expect from a trade show: the right audience, forward-thinking content and high level of service. For overseas buyers, it’s the chance to discover the new face of the Chinese aquarium industry, better identify their future suppliers and develop their business with innovative and affordable solutions. Major buyers are encouraged to contact the organizer to learn about the programs (hosted buyers, factory tours, etc.)

Jointly hosted by VNU Exhibitions Asia and the Guangdong Aquarium Industry Association, Aqua Fair Asia will take place on October 8-11, 2015 at Guangzhou Poly World Trade Center Expo (PTWC – Next to the Canton Fair Pazhou Complex). The show is expected to attract 300 exhibitors and over 12000 aquarium professional visitors from China and overseas.
