展会简介
The Exhibition Value of the Hefei Nut Expo
- The China (Hefei) Nut and Dried Fruit Food Exhibition is the world’s largest, most attended, highest‑turnover, and most influential specialized trade show for the nut and dried fruit industry. Since its inception in 2006, it has been successfully held for eighteen editions and is widely recognized by the industry as a global benchmark for the nut and dried fruit sector and a central hub for the Asian nut market. Organized by the China Nut and Dried Fruit Food Exhibition Organizing Committee, the event takes place annually at the Hefei Binhu International Convention and Exhibition Center. Over eighteen years, it has evolved from an 8,000‑square‑meter showcase into a 110,000‑square‑meter integrated innovation platform spanning the entire industry chain, becoming a strategic venue for connecting global nut and dried fruit supply‑chain resources, showcasing cutting‑edge technological advances, and guiding industry development trends.
- The core value of participation lies in its platform‑based coverage of the entire industry chain and its highly concentrated pool of global buyers. The 2025 eighteenth edition will span over 150,000 square meters, with a product exhibition area of 120,000 square meters, comprising eight major pavilions and twenty thematic zones. It will bring together nearly 2,000 exhibitors from around the world, showcasing more than 10,000 products, and attract over 100,000 domestic and international suppliers and buyers to the venue, ensuring precise procurement matchmaking. Exhibitors cover the full spectrum of the industry—from raw material cultivation and processing equipment to packaging materials and finished‑product sales. Industry leaders such as Three Squirrels, Qiaqia Food, and Bestore have participated year after year, while producer delegations like the Bai Gua Seed Association of Baoqing County, Heilongjiang, make collective appearances. Qiaqia Food has achieved remarkable results in whole‑chain integration and intelligent transformation, having established 1 million mu of raw‑material cultivation bases and 11 wholly owned factories worldwide.
- The exhibition has established an international platform that connects to global markets, with its level of internationalization continuously rising. In 2025, a dedicated international zone will be set up, where exhibitors from nearly 20 countries will jointly present international reports on the development status, advantageous production regions, supply‑demand dynamics, and emerging trends in the global nut and dried fruit industries, thereby advancing the sector’s internationalization. With exhibitors from over 30 countries gathering under one roof, the scale of the event will reach a new historical high, paving the way for China’s nut and dried fruit industry to align with international standards and creating favorable conditions and an enabling environment for expanding into overseas markets.
- Keeping pace with three major industry trends—digital and intelligent empowerment, full‑chain collaboration, and quality and safety—the exhibition has built a technology‑driven hub fostering deep integration among industry, academia, research, and application. Qiaqia Food has achieved end‑to‑end intelligent automation across processes ranging from air‑sorting and boiling to roasting and packaging, ensuring consistent product quality. Concurrent with the exhibition, numerous specialized forums are held, covering everything from seed breeding, raw materials, auxiliary supplies, and processing equipment to market analysis and forecasting, as well as omni‑channel marketing strategies—making these forums an integral part of the event and a key highlight. A newly added seminar on food quality and safety risk prevention, along with a training session on interpreting GB 5009.34‑2022 and enhancing testing techniques, brought together over 70 authoritative testing institutions and industry representatives. Leading companies such as Qiaqia and Three Squirrels shared their experiences in managing sulfur dioxide levels throughout the entire supply chain, driving the industry toward higher‑quality development.
- The exhibition innovatively establishes on‑site sourcing‑supply matching zones and diverse themed exhibition areas, creating an efficient platform for precise connections between buyers and suppliers. At the 2025 edition, the Snack Seasonal Gift Pavilion makes its debut, highlighting nuts, dried fruits, and seasonal foods across the entire industry chain, encompassing items such as seasonal delicacies tied to the Twenty‑Four Solar Terms, four‑season teas, coffee beverages, baked and puffed snacks, candies and chocolates, and gift boxes. The organizing committee has specially invited supermarket chains and bulk snack retailers—including Sam’s Club, RT-Mart, Walmart, FamilyMart, Mingming Very Busy, Love Discount Snacks, and Meiyijia—to participate in sourcing‑supply matchmaking events, providing a precise platform for on‑site order placement between buyers and suppliers.
- For Chinese enterprises, this exhibition serves as a strategic gateway for opening up global markets, connecting with international resources, and showcasing innovative capabilities. Over the past eighteen years, the cumulative exhibition space has reached 457,000 square meters, attracting 583,000 professional visitors, bringing together 6,328 exhibitors from around the world, displaying and selling more than 100,000 products, and generating a total transaction value of RMB 3.5 billion. In 2025, the three‑day event drew 237,000 visitors, a 58% increase, and recorded RMB 1.96 billion in transactions, up 35.17%. Participating companies can leverage this platform to connect with core global purchasing networks, seizing early opportunities in the intelligent, branded, and globally oriented transformation of the nut and dried fruit industry.
