According to Wu Zhengping, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and Deputy Director of the China International Import Expo Bureau, speaking at the closing press conference, this year’s expo set multiple historical records: the intended transaction value, calculated on a one-year basis, reached $83.49 billion, a 4.4% increase from the previous session, setting a new historical high. The enterprise exhibition area exceeded 367,000 square meters, with 4,108 companies participating from 138 countries and regions, both setting new records in exhibition area and number of participating enterprises.

Wu also noted that among the exhibitors, 290 were Fortune 500 companies and industry leaders, while 180 companies have participated in all eight sessions, fully demonstrating the strong and sustained appeal of China’s vast market and large-scale economy.

This year, a total of 380 Hong Kong businesses participated, accounting for nearly 10% of all exhibitors, with the number and scale reaching a new historical record. The Hong Kong Trade Development Council stated that it arranged over 1,000 business matching events, allowing Hong Kong exhibitors to engage face-to-face with buyers and others. This year, a live broadcast room was also set up in the food hall to increase their exposure, leading to successful cooperation outcomes for multiple exhibitors.
