Hear What Exhibitors Say |

 “This is our first time joining the fair. The show has a great reputation among the industry so that’s why we are here to promote our newly-launched 3D image notebooks and customised kids’ backpacks. Our booth has drawn a lot of attention from international and local buyers, such as those from Asian countries, Canada and the US. At the first day of the fair, we have already received around 20 to 30 good business leads from distributors, wholesalers and shops. The result is satisfying. I think compared to other fairs, HKISF is more international and attracts better quality of customers. We will seriously consider coming back next year.”
Pierre-Emmanuel PETIT, La Compagnie BMC, France

 "We have been joining this fair since the very beginning. For us, it is one of the most important industry shows. We met most of our big customers through this platform and they made up a big proportion of our annual revenue. At the first day of the fair, we met customers from North America, South America, Europe and emerging markets like India, and received around 12 to 15 good contacts. For example, a customer from India has shown great interest in placing order with our stationery sets. Another Hong Kong-based customer is interested in our stamp markers. Those are all serious buyers for us. And we are definitely happy with the result. I think HKISF is very professional compared to other fairs and we will be here every year."
Scott Wen, Mirage International Industries Inc, United States

 “This is my second time here. I brought some companies from Korea to the fair and aim at attracting more buyers from Asian countries. This is an important fair for us as I can compare different countries’ products, quality, price and design in one platform and it provides us invaluable business networking opportunities. This fair is located in Hong Kong and this gives us a gateway to international markets. “
Dong-Jae Lee, President, Korea Stationery Industry Cooperative, Korea

 “This is my first time here at the HKISF. Our company is a stationery wholesaler. I am looking for new products and bring them back to Malaysia. I had also been to stationery fairs in other countries but I found the variety and the price of the products here fit the needs of the Malaysian market. The products here are more interesting and innovative than those in the Malaysian market. I have walked down two aisles and already found some interesting products such as some nice greeting cards and ball pens. Some of the exhibitors from the Chinese mainland have upgraded new products. I have met 3 to 4 potential suppliers here. I will definitely come back to the fair next year.”
Yu Chan Ng, Sales Manager, Lian Pang Stationery (M) SDN BHD, Malaysia

 “My company is a toy and stationery distributor based in Australia. I have been visiting this fair for many years as in HKISF, you will always find something new. This year, I am sourcing gift stationery, and have found a lot of high-quality brands that I will consider working with, such as a Vietnamese company that provides hand-made calendars and a Chinese brand that offers pencils with excellent designs. I think over the years, the show has maintained high quality and gives me a lot of ideas through its full demonstration of innovations. It is a fair that you will not miss. I will definitely come back next year.”
Keith Garrett, Bright Spark Enterprises, Australia
