The 138th China Import and Export Fair (Canton Fair)
The 137th China Import and Export Fair (Canton Fair) concluded on May 5th, having attracted a record-breaking over 280,000 overseas buyers from 219 countries and regions. The third phase, themed "Better Life," kicked off on May 1st with over 12,000 participating enterprises, setting the stage for companies like Anhui Feistel to showcase their innovative outdoor products to a global audience. A Strategic Presence in the 'Better Life' Segment During the third phase of the fair, which focused on quality-of-life products, Anhui Feistel Outdoor Products Company seized the opportunity to present its latest range of high-quality outdoor gear.
