Participant comments

We gained strong exposure both at the fair and online. Overseas visitors from Italy, India, and South Korea showed genuine interest, which supported our international business goals. A JD.com live streamer showcased our products directly from the booth, helping to boost visibility and drive online sales. This dual impact made our participation especially rewarding.

Paperworld China went beyond our expectations in terms of both exposure and engagement. We connected with professional buyers and design-focused consumers who showed real interest in our products, while their feedback gave us valuable insights into current market needs. It’s clear that there is strong demand for cultural products that are both creative and practical, and the experience reaffirmed our focus on user-driven design and meaningful innovation.

I came to Paperworld China to discover new products and trends. This is the perfect place to explore product launches all in one go. This year, I noticed brands are putting even more thought into colour, materials, and detail, offering more refined and diverse choices. The fair always leaves me inspired.

As a first-time visitor, I’ve found the fair very productive. Our procurement focus includes pencil cases, folders, and writing instruments. We’ve already connected with five Chinese suppliers and are now in detailed discussions about pricing and order volumes, reviewing quotations based on our specific requirements.
