The China Sourcing Fairs will be held November 20-22, at the Bombay Exhibition Centre in the Goregaon district of Mumbai. The events in India are managed by Pico Event Management, under license from Global Sources (NASDAQ: GSOL).

"Based on this very strong exhibitor interest in the Mumbai events, the support from the mainland China government, and the participation from other export-related groups in mainland China, it is clear that India is one of the next top markets for China products," said Global Sources' Executive Director Sarah Benecke. "In response to growing demand in India, we will add the China Sourcing Fair: Auto Parts & Accessories exhibition this year to the China Sourcing Fair: Electronics & Components and the China Sourcing Fair: Hardware & Building Materials exhibitions launched last year."

The China Sourcing Fairs in Mumbai serve importers and volume buyers in India and surrounding markets who seek high-quality products from competitive Greater China suppliers. More than 13,600 buyers attended last year's event.
