China Brew and Beverage
The CBB gained more momentum with its move from Beijing to the Shanghai New International Exhibition Centre (SNIEC), strengthening its role as one the most important events for the beverage and liquid food industry sector in Asia. This is evident in the nearly double-digit increase (9 %) in the number of exhibitors, bringing the total to close to 800. In addition, the number of international companies in attendance rose by seven percent over 2014, to a total of 265. The CBB is held every two years. This year’s show was spread over an area of 81 000 m2 (80 000 m2 in 2014) with 53 183 attendees. The visitor numbers reflected a slight increase over those in 2014 which amounted to 52 063.
