Stationery Show Doesn''t Stand Still!
Whether it is keeping in contact with existing customers or seeking new buyers, the Hong Kong International Stationery Fair presents exhibitors with unbeatable opportunities to boost business. This lively show has stamped its mark on the region, and has become one of Asia''s best attended industry events.

Wide Agenda
The 2010 edition of the show featured 243 exhibitors from 10 countries and regions, who displayed a wide range of product categories, from artist supplies to computer peripherals, from school supplies to office equipment, from the fun to the functional, the practical to the decorative. The fair also entertained more than 14,500 trade visitors from 109 countries and regions. These buyers included retailers from a variety of outlets including chain and department stores, importers, service company representatives, exporters, distributors, wholesalers, and buying offices and cooperatives.

Trend Spotting
By keeping a close eye on the latest developments in the stationery business, the show is regularly enhanced with new features. The Gift Stationery Zone made its debut in 2010 and was well received by buyers eager to source top-quality, well designed products ranging from the classic to the funky. It makes a return in 2011, alongside the established themed zones of Children''s Stationery & School Supplies Zone, Paper & Printing Products Zone, and Office Supplies Zone. The segmentation of the show is a great help to buyers who find it easy to target their niche categories, giving them more time to conduct serious business negotiations with targeted suppliers.

Stars of the Future
The 2nd Hong Kong Stationery Award offers an opportunity for design talent to shine. The Winning entries will be on display during the fair, providing inspiration for all participants.
