The 2024 edition of the All China Leather Exhibition (ACLE) opened in Shanghai on September 3. By Leatherbiz.
Speaking at the opening ceremony, president of the China Leather Industry Association, Li Yuzhong, said exhibitors had taken up a total of 92,000 square-metres of space at the event, with domestic companies occupying 75%.
He said the Chinese leather industry had experienced a good first half of 2024, with revenues increasing by 5.2% year on year. “In spite of obvious challenges, the leather sector is showing significant promise,” he said.
Grace Lee, Event director followed this up by saying ACLE provided a platform for showcasing the whole leather manufacturing process from end to end. In addition she said the event was an important international encounter. “It opens doors for knowledge exchanges between east and west,” she said.
We bring leather, material and fashion businesses together: an opportunity to meet and greet face to face. We bring them from all parts of the world so that they can find fresh partners, discover new customers or suppliers and keep ahead of industry developments.
We organise a number of trade exhibitions which focus on fashion and lifestyle: sectors that are constantly in flux, so visitors and exhibitors alike need to be constantly aware both of the changes around them and those forecast for coming seasons.
