"
This is the fifth year we have exhibited at the show. This show here in Guangzhou is the most famous and popular show in this industry. As one of the top three lighting fixture suppliers, that’s why we choose this show for the past five years. We can meet many kinds of customers from all kind of verticals from different cities and Asian countries. So after the show GE sales can have many more sales opportunities. We have three different kinds of customers come to our booth. One is the designer, the engineer from the design institute or from the consulting company. The other is the end user from the factory or a project customer and the third customer is the distributor who attends this show to find new products. It’s a good event for China and for this industry. We have more than 10 sales people from three different reasons come to this event each year – 30 people altogether.”
Mr Qi Fei, Territory Sales Manager, GE Appliances & Lighting, China  


"We are here because it is the biggest show in Asia and every year it gets more international. I see a lot of people from Europe and North America. The market is getting more specific and want and customers more of what exactly fits in their applications. The show serves as a good platform for us to get a high volume of people through to have that opportunity to show them what it means. The show is just as much product and business promotion as it is education and showing where the market and technology is going. Our booth seminars were well received hopefully it’s helping with their LED knowledge and in turn our business as well .”
Mr Jacob Trost, Distribution Manager, Asia Pacific and Japan, Philips Lumileds, Hong Kong


"We have been exhibiting at the show for seven years. It’s an exhibition in the lighting field that is becoming bigger and bigger. When we saw it seven years ago it was not only smaller in terms of size but also in terms of visitors. Every year it is growing. It’s bigger than last year. We are here not to sell to China but to sell to outside of China – all over the world. We have just met with our customers from Spain and people from Iraq and Mauritius, and Syria. This show is becoming more and more professional. I think a show like this is good because here you can really find the manufacturers and not the companies that just trade and resell but here you can find the source, not only for finished products but also the source for components to assemble by yourself so it is a complete show."  
Dr Chaira Fumagalli, Developing Department, Manager, Fumagalli Srl, Italy
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

What visitors said

 
“I’ve been attending the show for 17 years. I’m looking for ballast drivers. The show is now much more focussed on export than the domestic market. We like this show because it is a lot more about the domestic market so a lot more of the factories come here and we like that. The show gives us an overview of what the Chinese manufacturing community looks like. The show is important because not only do we find new things here but we see a lot of the people here that we currently have relationships with so it saves us some travel. At this show we are seeing an evolution of products.”
Mr Allan Nelkin, Chief Executive Officer, Halco Lighting Technologies, USA

"It’s my second year at GILE. I came back because there were a lot of great exhibitors and innovative products at the 2011show. My main goal for coming this year is to source quality lighting products for residential use in my distribution business. Exhibitor quality this year is even better than the last. For me, GILE is the most important lighting show in China. The industry has quickly grown in the past few years from nothing. I will definitely come back next year."
Mr Gilberto Spiguel, President, Treelux, Brazil

"It’s my first time at the show. The quality of exhibitors is amazing! I’m here sourcing DMX controllers and a range of LED fixtures for my lighting business in Canada. Exhibitor quality is exceptional, especially with the larger brands. I came to GILE because after doing my research, I concluded there was no better fair for China’s lighting industry. The show has given me some great ideas on how to expand my business."
Mr Jeff Moss, Owner, Moss LED, Canada
