Hear What Buyers Say

Hong Kong Electronics Fair (Autumn Edition)
"Hong Kong is the centre of the world as far as the electronics business is concerned, so I never miss the opportunity to come here. All of my suppliers are either from Hong Kong or Guangzhou in the Chinese mainland and it’s good to have face-to-face contact with them. And I can find new suppliers here, too. With technology changing so quickly, we don’t hold too much stock any more, so it is essential to source new items. I have already placed several orders with a total value of more than US$40,000 (HK$312,000) on the first day.”
Mr Ogulcan Cemen, Owner, Ardagul Cemen, Turkey

electronicAsia

Ms Ekaterina Nikolaeva, Purchase Director, Solmer Company Limited, Russia
