For exhibitors, this means a highly targeted gateway to international cooperation. **Hall 16:** Here, you'll find renowned exhibitors from both China and abroad. The show caters to both domestic and export markets. A diverse lineup of themed events will run concurrently to keep foot traffic high and boost brand visibility. It's a lively space where deals get done and networks expand. ### Exclusive Perks for Global Professional Sourcing Delegations To make international sourcing more efficient and attractive, SZI EXPO is rolling out some serious perks for Global Professional Sourcing Delegations.
