Yongkang Hardware Exhibition – China Hardware Fair

Reasons to Exhibit at the Yongkang Hardware Fair

• China’s Premier Hardware Trade Show and a Nationally Recognized Authority: Founded in 1996, after 30 years of development, it has earned recognition within the industry as the largest, most prestigious, most effective, and most influential hardware trade show nationwide. For 20 consecutive years, it has been designated by the Ministry of Commerce as a key exhibition receiving prioritized support, and has repeatedly been honored as one of the “Top Ten Industrial Exhibitions” and the “Exhibition with the Highest Brand Value.” In 2025, the fair obtained certification from the Global Association of the Exhibition Industry (UFI), officially joining the ranks of world-class exhibitions.
• Backed by a World-Class Hardware Industry Cluster and a Fully Integrated Ecosystem: Yongkang proudly bears national titles such as “China’s Hardware Capital,” “China’s Door Capital,” and “China’s Cup Capital,” along with the esteemed reputation of being a “World-Class Hardware Industry Cluster.” It has developed an extensive, diversified hardware industry system and a complete supply chain, offering enterprises comprehensive resources spanning from raw materials to finished products.
• One-Stop Full-Chain Coverage and Precise Supply-Demand Matching: The fair features seven major categories—power tools, hand tools, daily-use hardware and electrical appliances, outdoor and leisure products, electromechanical goods, and machinery—covering all sub-sectors of the hardware industry. At the 30th edition, 1,610 companies participated, including 1,188 from outside the Yongwu-Jin region, representing 73.7% of the total, underscoring the fair’s nationwide reach.
• Highly Internationalized, Connecting Global Resources: With the mission of “Bringing Yongkang Hardware to the World and Gathering Global Hardware in Yongkang,” the fair exports products to nearly 200 countries and regions. At the 30th edition, an imported hardware boutique zone was introduced for the first time, featuring international brands such as Japan’s Takuma, U.S.-based DeWalt, and Spain’s Tumtec; a foreign buyer negotiation zone was also established, attracting nearly 300 overseas purchasers who brought orders to the event, thereby creating an efficient pathway for companies to expand their overseas markets.
• A Vanguard for Cutting-Edge Technologies, Setting Industry Trends: The fair consistently upholds its commitment to “Tech-Driven Hardware,” from launching China’s first-ever hardware industry index—the “Yongkang Hardware Index”—to pioneering the world’s first premium hardware exhibition zone, and now introducing the “AI+” high-tech product showcase, where advanced innovations like robotic dogs, drones, and autonomous sweeping robots are prominently displayed, providing enterprises with a prestigious platform to demonstrate their innovation and secure technological leadership.
• Dual Online-and-Offline Operations, Expanding Diverse Marketing Channels: Continuing its dual-platform approach, the fair collaborates with platforms such as Douyin and TikTok to host online promotional campaigns, global live-streaming procurement festivals, and cross-border collective sourcing events, opening new marketing avenues for exhibitors. Complementary activities include cross-border procurement matchmaking sessions and regional industry belt marketing initiatives, helping companies efficiently connect with domestic and international purchasing networks.
• Regional Synergy Benefits, Deepening Industrial Cooperation: During the fair, industry investment matchmaking events and project signing ceremonies are held, leveraging the exhibition to stimulate investment and foster industrial growth. The Yongwu-Jin region signed a framework agreement on industrial cooperation, jointly forging a new model of regional collaboration, providing a strategic platform for enterprises to access regional supply chains and share the benefits of coordinated development.
• 30 Years of Brand Legacy, Ensuring Proven Effectiveness: Over the past three decades, the fair has seen cumulative transaction volumes grow from just over RMB 500 million to more than RMB 15 billion, while the number of exhibiting companies has expanded from an initial 142 to 1,610. Exhibitor feedback indicates that the fair has helped them acquire new customers, explore fresh markets, and stay abreast of emerging trends, clearly demonstrating its role in driving business growth. The fair has thus become a strategic platform for companies seeking to deepen their presence in the domestic market and connect with global resources.
