CICGF – China International Consumer Goods Fair Ningbo 22. – 25. May 2025 | China’s largest mid-year Foreign Trade Fair

The China International Consumer Goods Fair (CICGF) is China’s largest mid-year trade fair for consumer goods and a key platform for international trade and economic exchange. It takes place annually at the Ningbo International Conference and Exhibition Center—a modern exhibition venue located in the eastern Chinese port city of Ningbo, which plays a vital role in China’s foreign trade.

The CICGF is organized by China’s Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM) in cooperation with the Zhejiang Provincial Government. This partnership highlights the fair’s high political and economic significance. With a strong focus on the export market, the event is especially attractive to Chinese manufacturers as well as international buyers, traders, and distributors. It showcases a uniquely broad range of consumer goods within China—including household and consumer electronics, textiles and apparel, homeware, gifts, as well as products in the sports and leisure sectors.

A major emphasis is placed on aligning with global market trends. Themed areas such as “National Boutique Products,” featuring culturally inspired goods from around the world, “Home Furnishing” with innovative living concepts, “Smart Products,” and “Green Living Products” with cutting-edge technologies and sustainable solutions, position the CICGF as a hub for innovation and international exchange.
One of the event’s highlights is the presentation of intelligent robots, drones, and environmentally friendly high-tech products. These not only reflect China’s technological progress but also set international benchmarks. The fair attracts exhibitors from a wide range of industries—from electronics and textiles to leisure, outdoor gear, green technology, and digital solutions. Its primary visitors include international buyers, wholesalers, trading companies, and professionals from retail, import/export, and product development sectors.
The Ningbo International Conference and Exhibition Center is exceptionally well connected, easily accessible by train, air, and via the port. The host city, Ningbo—a dynamic and rapidly developing economic hub—seamlessly blends tradition and modernity, offering trade fair visitors a multifaceted insight into contemporary China.
The CICGF – China International Consumer Goods Fair will take place on 4 days from Thursday, 22. May to Sunday, 25. May 2025 in Ningbo.
