“The bright future is in our hand”
China’s fruit industry is flourishing, with the value of fruit imported from all over the world exceeding US$10 billion in a row. Despite the spread of the epidemic, domestic fine fruits have emerged one after another. China has become the center of the fruit industry in Asia Pacific and even the world. However, no high standard international fruit exhibition covering the whole industry chain has been held in Chinese mainland. The whole industry is looking forward to an influential international fruit exhibition in Chinese mainland. This exhibition brings together global fruit industry chain practitioners and global high-quality fruit resources, and is committed to building the most professional international fruit exhibition in the Asia-Pacific region.
