SHANGHAI, Oct. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- The 2014 Shanghai Private Label Fair (aka PLF) will be held in the Shanghai Convention & Exhibition Center of International Sourcing (SHCEC) from December 10 to December 12. It is the only authorized purchase and supply platform in China which is dedicated to the retailing of private label products. The fair is expected to attract hundreds of reputable manufacturers from various industries, including food, beverage, grocery, health and beauty care sectors from 29 provinces in mainland China and from 19 countries, as well as more than 15,000 professional buyers from all regions of the world.
With the support of the Ministry of Commerce, 2014 PLF is jointly organized by the Private Label Manufacturers Association (PLMA), which has over 34 years of experience in organizing exhibitions, and Private Label Specialty Committee of Shanghai Licensing Association (PLSC), which comprises an extensive membership of the very top quality suppliers. Collectively, both organizations have over 100,000 qualified suppliers in their data base that can be programed and accessed to effectively provide valuable and highly effective purchasing and matching services.
The future of the retailing industry will be dictated by market needs. In anticipation, PLSC will expand its participation scale in 2014 PLF. There will be one floor dedicated as non-food section (including non-food commodities and personal care), and two floors dedicated to food and beverages. This arrangement should hopefully provide easier access and more efficient time management for buyers to locate supplier resources that are in-line to their needs. For this important event, PLSC has carefully screened all manufacturers and only selected valued-conscious manufacturers with not only high quality products but also creditable and recognizable reputation from both home and abroad, most of which have already been cooperating with some of the world's largest retailers such as CR Vanguard, Wal-Mart, Audi, Woolworths, and more. These manufacturers offer the type of quality assurance as result of continuous industrial upgrades and export experience. 2014 PLF will provide a perfect opportunity for the global purchasers who wish to seek potential quality and reputable exportation suppliers.
Additionally, the 2014 PLF will take advantage of the three day gathering to organize valuable activities such as retailer training luncheon, theme forum, and specially organized meetings between specific purchasers and suppliers. These activities are expected to yield support and connection opportunities to the local Chinese retailers who desire access to new retailing channels.
Some examples of the type of values this event brings include comments from Manager Wu of private label products from CR Vanguard (the largest retailer group in China) who commented "It is very beneficial to participate in PLF because there are so many firsthand high quality suppliers who are very valuable to us."
And buyer head Marcia from Shanghai ART Management and Consulting Co., Ltd. who said "PLF is a great platform that gathered many people in the field, shared great international experience and is a one-stop service support, which will definitely enhance a better development of retailing of PL in China."
PLF has not only attracted attention from large retailers in the field, but has also been highly praised by dozens of media at home and abroad. The professionalism and contribution of the 2014 PLF will undoubtedly be recognized not only for its high quality manufacturers and suppliers, but also for the growth potential of retailing industry in China.
With the initiation of China (Shanghai) Free Trade Zone in 2013, the favorable policies such as the tax regulation and cross-border logistics tailored to ease trading needs will lead to the internationalization of China's Retailing Industry. In this golden age, to meet the need of overseas purchasers, the Chinese manufacturers are accelerating to upgrade their respective industry, improving product quality and service. 2014 PLF is poised to be the ideal platform to accelerate and strengthen the development of China's Retailing Industry, as well as an authoritative channel that cannot be missed by overseas retailers, import and export traders who aim to explore high quality manufacturers in China.
