I haven't been here on the #MarketFriday movement by in the last weeks. I hope you don't miss me that much. Here again to share another awesome Market experience. I don't want to bore you with another tour around my all-time favorite Carbon Public Market that's why I'm sharing something different this time.
A few months back, I started sharing my experience in China's biggest trade show, Canton Fair. In my last write-up about my Day 1 in Canton Fair, I've narrated how it feels like to be in the middle of a massive fair that occupied thousands of square meters for the first time. Believe me, it was life-changing; I couldn't stop highlighting that indeed everything could be sourced out from China. Whatever you think you need or even those things you haven't figured out you'll need in the future, they have it in the fair. I wish I could bring the entire fair here to you but I'm only limited to the photos I've haphazardly taken during this work trip. Of course, it's not like I'm here to take photos for leisure, I gotta work, too! 😅
It was Day 2 and I might have calmed down after a dope Day 1. But I can remember the excitement is still as high as Mt. Everest's summit when I entered Canton Complex that morning. We were scheduled to explore the remaining stalls in the same hall. As expected we weren't able to finish stall hopping an entire building filled with exhibitors. For first-timers like me, Canton Fair offers the kind of excitement you feel when betting in the lottery; you'll never know what you'll see in the succeeding stalls you'll visit.
There's no one unifying theme to the items I've found in the fair although I've seen them in the same exhibition hall. From cute, comfortable slippers to some weird comfort room essentials to huge (and I mean huuuuge!) wall clocks, tumblers, food containers, notebooks. I still have a lot of photos but at the moment, I can only upload 10 photos. I'll share the rest some other time.
