LOUISVILLE, Ky., Oct. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- For the first time, the Children Baby Maternity Industry Expo (CBME) and UBM Asia will bring the "Unlock the Doors to China's Children, Baby and Maternity Products Market" business seminar to the United States.
Scheduled on October 15 from 1:00 to 2:15 in the afternoon at the Crowne Plaza Louisville Airport Hotel, Louisville Kentucky, the seminar aims to help American brands and suppliers gain a better understanding of China's children, baby and maternity products market. Mr. Yu Qing Shen, CBME founder, will be the special guest speaker.
The Seminar covers a series of topics, including:
"With 15 to 20 million babies born each year, China presents a young and growing children, baby and maternity products industry. China is currently the world's second largest consumer market for babies and children's products after the United States. The market demand is expected to hit US$304 billion by 2015," says Athena Gong, General Manager of CBME.
"Chinese parents want the best for their child. They are looking for high quality products from trusted brands. A China Academy of Social Sciences survey shows that most families spend 50% of their total family income on their child. There is much room for growth and expansion in this industry. With this seminar, we give international brands, suppliers and vendors a better understanding of the China market and explore business opportunities beyond the United States."
