China Yiwu International Commodities Fair Import Goods Exhibition opened on Nov 13, bringing more than 800 exhibitors from 69 countries and regions.

The fair covers 40,000 square meters and features 1,650 standard booths. Exhibits range from consumer goods and food to apparel and accessories, along with services related to cross-border trade and international business cooperation.

First launched in 2012, China Yiwu International Commodities Fair Import Goods Exhibition has aligned its schedule with the close of China International Import Expo in Shanghai since 2018 to make better use of the resources and exposure.

Yiwu's imports reached 77.21 billion yuan ($10.88 million) in the first three quarters of the year, up 31.3 percent year-on-year, according to Yiwu Customs.

A vibrant program of side events — including business matchmaking sessions — will create a multidimensional exhibition experience through trade talks, cultural experiences, presentations and interactive sessions.
