Phase 1 is the industrial and technology-intensive part of the Canton Fair. Consumer electronics and appliances sit with manufacturing equipment, machine tools, industrial automation, new-energy products, vehicles and parts, motorcycles, hardware and tools, giving importers a broad first-pass view of China's electrical, mechanical and mobility supply base before moving into narrower specialist fairs or factory visits.
As the 140th Canton Fair, this phase belongs to China's largest long-running comprehensive trade-fair system and uses fixed product phases to make its exceptional breadth navigable.
