The Canton Fair, with its formal name Chinese Export Commodities Fair (Chinese: ???????????????????????????), is held twice a year in Spring and Autumn since Spring of 1957 in Guangzhou. It is China's largest trade fair of the highest level, of the most complete varieties and of the largest attendance and business turnover. Preserving its traditions, the Fair is a comprehensive and multi-functional event of international importance.
Fifty Trading Delegations, being composed of thousands of China's best foreign trade corporations (enterprises), take part in the Fair, including foreign trade companies, factories, scientific research institutions, foreign invested enterprises, wholly foreign-owned enterprises, private enterprises, etc.
The Fair leans to export trade, though import business is also done here. Apart from the above-mentioned, various types of business activities such as economic and technical cooperations and exchanges, commodity inspection, insurance, transportation, advertising, consultation, etc. are also carried out in flexible ways.
