Buyers' Comments
"In business for 40 years, Lotte is Asia's no. 1 confectionary company. This is our first time attending this fair. We used to buy packaging materials through our agents in Korea, but the quality is not so good. So, we want to source packaging materials directly from reliable suppliers. I've come to this fair for the first time looking for new suppliers who can provide quality packaging materials. We are particularly interested in working with Hong Kong companies for better quality control. We have already identified some suitable suppliers for plastic cases and ice cream sticks. The business matching services offered by the HKTDC are also very useful. We've just had a fruitful meeting with a Hong Kong exhibitor. We like this fair because we have achieved the objective."
Mr Yoon Gi Woon, Assistant Manager, Purchasing Department, Lotte Confectionery Co., Ltd, Korea

"We are a fully integrated agricultural company which is listed on the Philippine Stock Exchange. We engage in the manufacture and distribution of fresh fruits, vegetables and beverages. Apart from the domestic market, we export to Canada, Hong Kong, the Chinese mainland, the Middle East and the US. It is my first time visit to this fair. I am particularly looking for packaging materials for juice and beverage production. The Hong Kong International Printing & Packaging Fair is a very specialised and informative show. We've seen a lot of potential here especially in the creativity and innovation being demonstrated by the exhibitors. We've found a very good supplier here and we're planning to place orders."
Mr Dennis S. Sia, Managing Director & Chief Operating Officer, AgriNurture Inc., the Philippines
 
Exhibitors' Comments
"Backed up by our parent, Leo Paper Group which has 30 years' experience in the printing industry, our company is a one-stop packaging solution provider that offers services from design, production, testing to logistics. Established in 2009, we export mainly Europe and the US. It is our first time exhibiting at this fair. In view of the growth potential in the Chinese mainland's packaging market, we want to ride on this fair to reach out to mainland buyers. Customers' responses are very good. So far, we have met with 60 new buyers, 50 per cent of whom came from the mainland and the rest from Europe and the US. We appreciate the follow-up services provided by the organisers. We are happy to participate in the open forum which is very helpful in promoting our packaging solutions to international buyers."
Mr Calvin Chung, Sales Manager, Leo Design & Packaging Solution Limited, Hong Kong

"We are the Hong Kong office within the Sun Studio network established by Russia's largest UV printers and inks manufacturer – Sun Innovations Company. We can print quality images on unconventional materials such as stones, wood, ceramic and furniture. Our clients include interior decoration companies and gifts and premium companies. We'll launch an online platform allowing consumers to place orders for our printing services. It is our first year at this fair. Many buyers are very excited about our technology - 50 per cent of the buyers come from Hong Kong, 40 per cent from the Chinese mainland and the rest from other countries. It is good because Hong Kong is our target market. We are very satisfied with the organisers' services as our printing services are promoted through different channels such as the Green Printing & Packaging Solutions Display Area, open forum and short video."
Ms Barbara Kukhno, Director, Sun Studio Hong Kong Limited, Hong Kong
