With six months still to go before the 2006 Dongguan China Shoes-China Shoetec, over 90% of the exhibition area has already been booked. The organisers are expecting the show, which is being held April 21-24 at Dongguan International Conference & Exhibition Centre, Guangdong, to cover an exhibiting area of over 22,000m2, representing at least 15% growth.

The Hong Kong Footwear Association has signed a long term cooperation agreement with the organisers and it is likely the Hong Kong Pavilion will expand by at least 20% compared with last year. Portugal’s Pavilion, which debuted at the show in April 2005, has also confirmed participation again next year.

For the first time, the autumn edition of next year’s fair will also be held in Shanghai. The 2006 Shanghai China Shoes-China Shoetec will take place at Shanghai Exhibition Centre from October 23-25, 2006, and will focus on the domestic market, middle-to-high end products and trendy branded shoes.
