Buyers from a total of 113 countries have already registered to visit CICCF.
This year the journey to CICGF will be easier and quicker. The region’s prestigious project: the 36 kilometre long Hangzhou Bay Bridge will open conciding with the fair. This spectacular structure connects Shanghai to the province of Zhejiang and cuts the journey time between Shanghai and Ningbo from four to three hours.
All foreign exhibitors will be picked up free of charge from the Shanghai airport and brought directly to Ningbo. Tickets for overseas visitors are also free when they register with the CICGF at trade1 ( @ ) cicgf dot com dot
