The Hong Kong International Stationery & School Supplies Fair will be staged at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre from 6 – 9 January 2025 alongside the online ‘Click2Match’ business matching platform (30 December 2024 – 16 January 2025).

Asia-Pacific Leads Dynamic Growth in the Stationery & School Supplies Market
The stationery and school supplies market has been exhibiting steady growth over the years and is expected to reach USD 178.63 billion by 2029 [1]. This represents a CAGR of 4.23% from 2024 to 2029. Significantly, the Asia-Pacific region stands at the forefront of this accelerated growth. China, in particular, remains on track to drive this momentum. The market in China is projected to break through the USD 32.5 billion mark by as early as 2027. [2]

A platform to enhance international business opportunities
To enhance the sourcing experience for buyers, the trade fair will be categorised under five product zones: School Supplies, Gift Stationery, Pen & Paper, Creative Art, and Smart Office. In a bid to foster sustainability in the stationery industry, eco-friendly and recycled stationery products will be featured. A variety of seminars and networking events will also offer attendees industry insights and professional connections.

The trade fair continues to receive support from prominent Asia industry associations like China Stationery & Sporting Goods Association, Malaysia Stationery Importers and Exporters Association, and The Federation of Stationers and Booksellers Association of Malaysia.

Highly praised by exhibitors

We are targeting wholesalers, distributors, and shop chains, as well as those seeking unique, quality, and innovative Back-To-School and stationery collections. In this fair, we successfully engaged new customers who wanted to diversify their offerings with our BTS collections. Another unique advantage of the fair is its global appeal, drawing customers from around the world based on the most significant distribution channels of our interests. This significantly helps with growing our worldwide customer base."
