Through Click2Match, I identified two potential suppliers for plastic boxes and food containers and have already placed sample orders. It was a brilliant idea to co-locate the Home Instyle and Fashion InStyle, that allows me to source fashion accessories under one roof.”Global fashion buyers flocked in for sourcing, Click2Match fosters business discussionsThe Taiwan Creative Industry Development Association brought five brands and two jewellery designers to exhibit at Fashion InStyle. According to Brian Hsueh, a supervisor at the Association, the exhibition allowed them to connect with over 30 potential buyers from Mainland China, India, Indonesia, Myanmar, Russia, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Vietnam and other locations. They estimated they can secure orders valued at over US$200,000. Mr Hsueh remarked: “This exhibition has met our expectations very well, proving it to be an effective shortcut for Taiwanese brands to engage with the world.”Tze Her Ying, Chief Operating Officer, Saturday Club, visited Fashion InStyle to source items for the Singapore-based online fashion brand specialising in ladies’ wear. She has identified two suppliers and made plan to order approximately 5,000 items, including sportswear like yoga wear, from a supplier within the Athleisure zone. She noted: “I was impressed by the fair, and the Click2Match business matching platform was very useful. It allowed us to identify potential suppliers before even arriving at the event. I highly recommend companies in the industry to visit this exhibition." Under the HKTDC’s EXHIBITION+ format buyers and sellers can network through the smart business-matching platform Click2Match after the fairs close.The Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) has a lineup of exciting exhibitions this month. The Hong Kong Gifts & Premium Fair will take place from 27 to 30 April at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.
