Visitors from Japan, USA and Germany etc developed countries are partly parts purchasers and partly machinery manufacturers with the purpose of investigating Chinese market. Visitors from India, Viet Nam, Saudi Arabia, Poland, Turkey etc are mainly parts makers, aiming to purchasing machine tool from china.
3.2 Domestic visitors by provinces
Due to the favourable geographical position, visitors from Beijing and Tianjin occupied more than on third of the totality. And the rank of the metalforming manufacture capacity displayed clearly on the graphics: Jiangsu, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Hebei, Shandong, Liaoning etc. As Guanggong is far from Beijing, the visitors number is not so many this time. These two exhibitions have considerable influence in these developed regions.
4. Visitors'''' Origin by Industries
Metalforming parts makers and their purchasers are the target visitors of the exhibitors, which reach more than 50% of the totality. And another 33% are equipment, tooling & die or auxiliary device companies that investigated the show and seeked for partners here. Deduct the 15% of ambiguous visitors, the rate of professional visitors reach to 85%. This year we have paid much attention to recruit top 20 purchasers from automotive, ship-building, construction machinery, aviation etc 26 industries, and this effort got good response as a result.
5. Annual Purchaser Amount of the Target Visitors
This statistics only aimed at target visitors, namely the statistics didn’t include the data of visitors from equipment, tooling & die and other companies like them. The rate of annual amount over 50 million is 15%, the rate of 5 million to 5000 million is 23%, and other 62% are mainly annual amount below 5 million. The statistics means the proportion of visitors from large, middle and small sized companies is 1:1.5: 4. If comparing this data with the visitors'' origin by province, we will find that nearly 60%of visitors come from north China, where there are giant state owned corporation or tiny start-up family owned work shops. And in Yangtse Rive and Pearl triangle region where large and middle sized companies with more then 10 year experience are main stream of all the manufacturing industries. And it is anticipated that in a few years, the north market will be much better than it at present.
Summary:
Many exhibitors regretted that they didn''t expect that there are so many professional visitors, so they did not have enough space to showcase more products and brought no enough brochures this time. Astonished by the prosperity of the show, many visitors decided to take part in the next show demand us to inform them as soon as possible.
Forging, stamping and fabricating are the milestone of manufacturing and , however, they are always in the shadow of OEM. Metalform China and ChinaForge Fair offer a stage specially for professional counterparts to communicate and display their image. It has a bright future, and we will struggle to promote it.
