swop 2017, to be held from November 7-10 in Shanghai, China, has joined hands with Packaging Family, a pioneering exchange platform established by a group of enthusiasts pursuing a dream of "big packaging", as long-term strategic partners.
According to the Chinese fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) Internet B2B Market report released by Kantar China in 2016, the overall transaction volume of the Chinese FMCG B2B industry in 2018 is estimated to reach RMB 20 trillion.
swop and Packaging Family are committed to building the "FMCG InnoZone" and serving all kinds of FMCG end users. In 2015, the two partners created the "Packaging Materials & Products Zone" which attracted more than 200 manufacturers of packaging materials and products.
Compared with the "Packaging Materials & Products Zone" of 2016, this year's FMCG InnoZone will be three times as large with a more distinctive theme. It is expected to attract more than 600 well-known manufacturers of various packaging materials and products both domestically and abroad, covering plastics, metals, glass, paper products, wood products, printing ink and adhesives.
Nearly 100 renowned packaging materials and products manufacturers have registered to take part in the exhibition, including Ningbo Color Master Batch Co. Ltd, Nanjing Hujiang Composite Materials Co. Ltd, Hebei Fangda Packaging Co. Ltd, Tianjin Zerpo Supply Co. Ltd. and ACMEPLAS System Technologies, Ltd.
At the same time, the Packaging Family will also hold a high-end FMCG forum during swop 2017, and invite its end enterprise members to conduct theme introductions, case analyses, interactive exchanges and so forth with packaging industry chain enterprise members regarding hot topics in FMCG industries like food, beverage, daily care, cosmetics, pharmaceutical, etc.
In addition to the "FMCG InnoZone", swop 2017 will introduce a new theme of "SAVE FOOD", aimed at exploring ways to extend the shelf life of food, guarantee transport safety and reduce wastage through intelligent & automated design of packaging equipment and innovation in packaging materials.
More than 30,000 visitors of the packaging, purchasing, engineering and other decision-making departments from the food, beverage, desserts, baked food, medicine, cosmetics, non-food consumer goods and industrial products industries are expected to visit swop 2017.
