High praise from international buyers

We got a lot of information and many supplier for our business from METAL CHINA 2023. There are a lot of factories and agents with steel raw materials we are finding. Hoping to join in the next event.--Thailand Visitors

We have achieved our goals as expected. China has developed exceptionally rapid in recent years. During the last three years, although there were signs of decline in the manufacturing industry, it provided more space for high-end enterprises to rise through industry integration. Technically, the independently developed products in China’s foundry industry have emerged at a fast pace and low cost, which has better stabilized China's position as a leading foundry nation. At the same time, the strong demand for new products and processes from various foundry enterprises has also attracted more attention of the world to the Chinese market.--Japan Visitors

It was good. We achieved all the goals we had set out to do. Overall an eye opening experience I think. We're in the process of negotiating some deals, mostly for raw materials, but there's some for machinery as well. Thank you for the top notch service.--Vietnam Buyers
