Pazhou
Pazhou is an separate Island, which belongs to Haizhu District and is home to the foreign trade hub of Guangzhou as well as a large business district. The area is well developed and comes with many large hotels and parks. So in between trade show and meetings, you can have a stroll around and relax a bit
Trade Fair
The most frequent visited and probably most famous place in Pazhou is the Canton Fair Complex, including its neighbouring buildings which are the Guangzhou Poly World Trade Exhibition Hall as well as the Nanfung International Convention & Exhibition Center. All three of these buildings and fair complexes are host to various exhibitions throughout the year. They are also home to many companies in the trading business. From large inspection companies to sourcing giants. Everything you need for your supply chain in one area.
You can visit the Canton Fair website for more information.
Wester & Chinese Restaurants
Visitors to the Canton Fair are not in China for fun, they are here for business. They are not here for the culture and the food. That is fair and we know that a business trip, especially at the Canton Fair can be stressful and a very tight shedule does not call for experiments on your plate. Luckily the area around Pazhou has several small malls as well as many large Hotels. Just visit Xingangdong Station or better Wanshengwei and enter the malls there for large international food chains. Apart from that, the Westin and Shangri-La Hotels offer very nice western or international food.
Offices
Not only is Pazhou home to many supply chain related companies. It is also home to many large chinese brands that have their offies in the newly build business district. You can also find offices for rental or co-working places.
Sourcing new Products?
We know ourselves how time-consuming it can be to find the right supplier and then discuss prices, shipping times, sample pictures and furthermore in China. Especially with language barrier. For our e-commerce businesses we usually use Jing Sourcing, so we recommend them here with full heart.
Lab-Testing and Product Quality Control
Anyone selling on e-commerce marketplaces knows about how easy it can be to offend Amazon as well as the EU. To avoid bad reviews and problems with importing or Amazon delisting, we use QIMA since years.
