In order to promote the international trade, technology exchanges and cooperation between the Chinese and international vending manufacturers and operators, the China International Vending & OCS Showcase (Beijing) 2016 will be held November 16-18, 2016 alongside with the ANUFOOD China 2016 – powered by Anuga at China International Exhibition Center (NEW), the largest new convention center in Beijing, the capital city of the People’s Republic of China.
The China International Vending & OCS Showcase (Beijing) 2016 (hereinafter referred to as “the China Vending Showcase”) is sponsored by Koelnmesse Co., Ltd. and China Chamber of Commerce of Foodstuffs and Native Produce (CFNA), administrated by Shanghai WeShow Events Ltd. and Shanghai Highlights Business Management Consulting Co., Ltd., and supported by NAMA (National Automatic Merchandising Association), EVA (European Vending Association), Japan Vending Machine Manufacturers Association (JVMA), Spanish Vending Association (ANEDA) and many other international vending associations and media around the world.
The China Vending Showcase, formally named “China Vending Show” can be traced back to 2003 when the vending industry in China was still in its infancy. In 2006, with the support and participation of NAMA, EVA and JVMA, the China Vending Show became an international annual event with good reputation in the vending industry. By summarizing the valuable experience over the past ten years, the Organizers of China Vending Showcase, Shanghai WeShow Events Ltd. and Shanghai Highlights Business Management Consulting Co., Ltd., are determined to create an entirely new edition of vending and OCS trade showcase in Beijing by taking effective measures to promote international participation, creative innovation, and international trade.
In order to encourage more international companies to exhibit at the China Vending Showcase, the Organizers will provide international exhibitors with the most competitive exhibit space rates and premium booth furniture packages. Secondly, the world’s leading high-tech companies will be recruited to demonstrate the most-state-of-the-art products, hottest technologies and latest trends of the industry on the site. With the reliance upon the buyers’ database established by the Organizers over the past ten years, 5000+ professional buyers and vending operators will be officially invited from home and abroad to make trade negotiations and place purchase orders on the site. Especially, the China International Vending & OCS Showcase (Beijing) 2016 is the ONLY vending and OCS exhibit event in China obtaining the official support from the two world’s leading vending associations, NAMA (National Automatic Merchandising Association) in America and EVA (European Vending Association) in Brussels.
What is more significant, the China International Vending & OCS Showcase (Beijing) 2016 will share the same exhibition floor with the ANUFOOD China 2016 – powered by Anuga, the largest food trade fair in northern China. ANUFOOD China 2016 is organized by Koelnmesse Co., Ltd. with 700+ exhibitors occupying a total exhibition floor area of 30,000+ sq. m., covering all the supply chains of the food retail and hospitality industries including dairy, sweets & snacks, catering, beer & wine, meet & sea food, and organic food, etc. and attracting 25,000+ visitors from home and abroad.
With the steady growth of China’s economy (the world’s second largest economy with its GDP growth rate in 2016 >6.5%), the Chinese vending & OCS industry has just passed through its infancy stage and is entering a new era of robust development. According to the recent market survey, there are currently 1000+ vending operators and 200,000+ vending machines on location in China. It is confidently predicted that China will become one of the largest vending and OCS markets, next to USA, Japan and the European developed countries in the next 3-5 years. Backed by the world’s leading vending associations and international allies, the China International Vending & OCS Showcase (Beijing) 2016 alongside with the ANUFOOD China 2016 – powered by Anuga is undoubtedly an international gala event with its global impact upon the vending and OCS industries.
