When HKTDC Hong Kong International Wine Expo makes its debut in August 2008, Hong Kong will move into a key position as a trading platform for fine wines in Asia. For wine producers and traders, this is the Open Sesame to Asian markets of huge promise, especially in the Chinese mainland.

All the stars are in alignment for the creation of a fine wine trading and distribution hub in Asia and where better than Hong Kong.

Hong Kong has abolished import duty on wines.

The sophisticated Hong Kong market is already a major consumer of, and investor in, fine wines.

The market in the Chinese mainland is burgeoning and Hong Kong is its gateway.

Dealers, consumers and investors all over Asia will welcome the convenience of trading in centrally located, ultra-efficient Hong Kong.

The market is waiting. Ready to meet this market at Hong Kong International Wine Expo will be:

Wine dealers and cellars from Hong Kong and Asia;
Wine producers and dealers around the world including Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Chile, France, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Portugal, Spain, South Africa, the Chinese mainland, the U.S., etc..

Exhibitors can meet trade buyers, importers, wholesalers, retailers, distributors, brokers, hotels, restaurants and catering companies, with particular emphasis on the Chinese mainland and Asian markets. As well as creating a professional environment for negotiations, the fair is the place for interaction with the global industry and updating market knowledge.

Wine Expo will open its doors to the public on the last day of the fair. This will give exhibitors a rare opportunity to gain direct feedback from a broad cross-section of the public as well as raising consumer awareness of their brands.

Wine Tasting events will be an integral part of the fair's programme. Seminars are held in conjunction with Wine Expo to disseminate the latest industry developments.

Hugely popular Food Expo 2008 is being held in HKCEC at the same time. In 2007, 8,549 trade buyers visited Food Expo.

Hong Kong International Wine Expo will be the key that unlocks the door to the Chinese mainland market for suppliers of wines and spirits. Hong Kong enjoys a unique and close relationship with the Chinese mainland market and the fair's organiser, the Hong Kong Trade Development Council, has 11 offices in the mainland through which it will aggressively promote Wine Expo.

In addition, with 40 offices overseas and a network of professional representatives, HKTDC will reach out to thousands of quality buyers all over Asia and beyond.
