This first edition will take place at Shanghai Exhibition Centre from October 15 to 17, 2014. Trade is developing swiftly in China, which is the second largest retail market. The retail industry represents 9.7% of the Chinese economy and generates more than 60 million jobs, amounting to a total selling area of 250 million square meters. Bringing together 160 local and international exhibitors over 5,400 m², the trade show will host 8,000 local and international buyers. It will include all aspects key to attracting and to meeting the needs of worldwide retailers: fittings, equipment, logistics/supply chain, marketing/POS, agencies/consulting services, technologies, digital marketing and e-commerce providers. The aim of the new trade show is to become the leading international trade show for retail equipment and technologies, like Equipmag in France. (ank)
