A<\/strong>bout All China Leather Exhibition (ACLE)<\/strong><\/p> \n

The All China Leather Exhibition is generally accepted as the premier event for international companies seeking opportunities in China's huge and, (for a short period remaining - perhaps!) still under-supplied, market.<\/p> \n

With some 16 years' experience no other event in the China leather sector provides a comparable opportunity for overseas companies to meet and greet, face-to-face, with potential Chinese partners, customers and suppliers.<\/p> \n

Held annually in Shanghai, in early autumn, ACLE provides the largest variety of leather, components and accessories, manufacturing equipment, tools, machinery, technology, and business services. There is a full programme of seminars and presentations, both off- and on-site, and a recently introduced a 24\/7 'virtual' exhibition keeps the event open from one year to the next.<\/p> \n

In 2013, 1,200 exhibitors from 36 countries and regions, were present. The forthcoming 2014 event is on track to improve further upon these numbers.<\/p> \n

APLF's partner in this prestigious event is China's only official recognised leather sector organisation, the China Leather Industry Association.<\/p> \n

The exhibition runs concurrently with CIFF and Moda Shanghai.<\/p> \n

Registered visitors can enter 3 exhibitions and attend all the conference, seminars, and attractions - visit www.aclechina.com<\/a> for more information.<\/p> \n
