The 57th China International Furniture Fair (CIFF Guangzhou) concluded at the Canton Fair Complex in Pazhou after an eight-day run, confirming its position as the world's leading sourcing platform for the furniture industry. Held under the theme “Connect · Create”, this year's edition drew more than 5,100 exhibitors — 93.8% of whom chose the fair to debut new products — and 353,106 professional visitors from 185 countries and regions.
International buyers return in force
International attendance reached 64,291, a 13.2% increase over the previous record set in 2025. Running alongside the fair, the CIFM/interzum Guangzhou components exhibition covered over 170,000 square metres with 1,750 exhibitors from 29 countries, underlining the growing importance of materials, hardware and production technology in the supply chain.
Why trade fairs still matter
For buyers, face-to-face sourcing events remain the fastest way to evaluate finishes, test products and negotiate factory-direct terms. For manufacturers, major fairs are where new collections are validated against real market demand. If you missed this edition, the next CIFF Guangzhou and Furniture China in Shanghai offer natural checkpoints for your 2026–2027 sourcing calendar.
