Hear What Exhibitors Say |

 "We organised 11 Thai companies including three newcomers to the show this year. They represent various sectors from education, office supplies, stationery as well as lifestyle products. Our members are quite familiar with Hong Kong International Stationery Fair and many of them are loyal exhibitors to the show. As our association is committed to encouraging and supporting export business, we participate at the show because it’s an effective platform. Also, Hong Kong is an exhibition hub which attracts visitors from across the world to do sourcing. January is also a suitable month for us due to the fact that new products are launched around this time."
Mrs Kanya Panya-Arj-Ong, President, Thai Stationeries and Office Supplies Association, Thailand
 "This is the first time we’ve participated at the fair. We are here to promote our new stationery brand, Inozto, of which the concept and design are originated by our product designers in Japan. The iconic bright color combination with original design makes Inozto an increasingly popular brand in Hong Kong. We wish to bring it into the markets in America, Europe, Southeast Asia, as well as Japan and Korea. The fair is a good multinational platform for brand promotion. So far the visitors have shown interest in our products. We have received quite a lot of enquiries from professional buyers and distributors coming from our target regions, such as Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand as well as some American and European countries."

 “We are a long-term exhibitor here at this fair. We are in favour of the exhibition time now in January, when the sourcing season just starts. Hong Kong is a fantastic place for doing business. It is the heart of Asia where we can meet industry players from all around the globe. Overall the show is well-organised and well attended. I think it is important for us to participate at professional trade fairs like this, so as to effectively promote our products and keep up our brand’s awareness in the industry. We thank the organiser for offering this important event, allowing us to network with peers and acquire new business. We appreciate the effectiveness of this trade fair.”

 "It is my first time to visit the fair and I aim at sourcing filing products, desktop accessories and other related products. This fair is an ideal platform for me to learn more about the updated market trends which is beneficial to our business. I have met around seven exhibitors so far and I already have great interest in cooperating with five of them. I will get quotation from them after the fair. Overall, I am quite happy with the quality of the exhibitors. I think the market will grow steadily in the upcoming years, and there will be a great demand for high-tech products. I also think green and recycling products will become popular in the future. I am quite positive and confident about the market as well as the fair."
Mr Tony Wong, SBG Senior Manager, Merchandising Dept., Staples China, the Chinese mainland
"Our company has established since 1973 and we now operate 10 retailing stores for office supplies, stationery and gifts in Singapore. This is the third time we’ve sourced at the show. I mainly look for desktop stationery, filing stationery and interesting novelties. In Singaporean market, paper, filing products and IT products are in great demand. At the show, I’ve already found some interesting products, for example, a Korean exhibitor showcases products which are especially for female market. I’ve also found products with very good design from Korean and Japanese exhibitors. I’ve talked to four exhibitors so far. The contacts that I’ve collected so far are useful and some of them may become my potential suppliers. Overall, the show is practical for me because I can source attractive and competitive products. Hong Kong International Stationery Fair is definitely a leading and important platform for stationery and office supplies in the Asia Pacific region."
Mr Lim Phek Jin, Retail Head for Evergreen Group Pte Ltd, Singapore
