A total of 1,138 Jinhua companies with 1,998 booths are participating in the 140th China Import and Export Fair, also known as the Canton Fair, which opened on Oct 15 and runs until Nov 4.

This year's event, the fair's 70th anniversary, covers 1.55 million square meters with 75,700 booths and 32,000 exhibitors.

Design innovation is a highlight for Jinhua, with seven local companies winning 2026 Canton Fair Design Innovation Awards, including one gold, five silver, and one bronze.

Zhejiang Apollo Vehicle, which won gold, is displaying new products from its high-end off-road electric motorcycle brand RFN. Its products are exported to more than 80 countries and regions.

At Zhejiang Sanfeng Industrial's booth, smart lawn-mowing robots, push mowers, and lithium chainsaws are on display. Drawing on years of experience in garden tools, the company is advancing intelligent upgrades to offer efficient, eco-friendly solutions.

Innovation also extends to trade services. Zhejiang Kingston Group, a one-stop cross-border supply chain provider, has built the Sumaotong smart platform to help foreign trade companies reduce costs and improve efficiency.

During the fair, Jinhua is also organizing 63 quality companies to join the Jinhua Premium Goods (Guangzhou) Exhibition to showcase the strengths and advantages of Jinhua manufacturing.
