The three-day 22nd edition of China Art & Frame Expo recently kicked off at the Yiwu International Expo Center on March 20.

The event saw a continuous stream of buyers, indicating robust business activity. Exhibitors like Song Haiying from Shijiazhuang, Hebei province, were thrilled with the response, constantly engaged in transactions throughout the event.

Bart, a Turkish buyer, was particularly impressed by the Chinese ceramic water landscape ornaments showcased at the exhibition. Expressing his admiration, Bart highlighted the uniqueness of the Chinese-style ornaments and revealed his intention to purchase framing materials, estimating a total expenditure of 3 to 4 million yuan ($416,728-$555,632).

For Bart and many other foreign buyers, the exhibition serves as a vital channel to explore Chinese manufacturing, enabling them to easily connect with suppliers and negotiate deals, thus saving significant costs.

According to organizers, this year's exhibition saw remarkable growth compared to previous editions. The exhibition space expanded from three to four halls, with the number of booths rising by 23 percent to around 1,600 booths. Nearly 500 brands from all over China participated, specializing in post-production of photo studios, decorative paintings, and photo frames.

With this continued growth, the exhibition has maintained its position as the world's leading professional exhibition in the frame and decorative painting industry for the 11th consecutive year.
