Introduction of Wuhan Hong Kong Brand Week

Under the sponsorship of the SME Development Fund, the BDC is implementing the "Assisting Hong Kong Brands and Products to Explore Central China Market Through Organizing 'Wuhan Hong Kong Brand Week' Serial Activities" Project, with the CMA Exhibition Services Limited acting as the Implementation Agent and the Chinese Manufacturers' Association of Hong Kong as Collaborating Organization. This 10-month Project commenced on November 2011.

Project Summary

Hong Kong companies especially SMEs have quickened their pace in developing China's domestic market after the Financial Tsunami, in an attempt to open up new avenue to business growth and to mitigate the impacts of slow recovery in traditional export markets notably the US and the Europe. As a recent survey by the Chinese Manufacturers' Association of Hong Kong reveals, while South China and East China are approaching market saturation, Central China has emerged as a new focal point for Hong Kong companies to deploy their product outlets. Bedsides, in developing domestic sales business, many Hong Kong companies tend to opt for cost-effective and time-saving strategies like cooperating with Mainland distributors and participating in exhibitions and fairs.

In line with these trends, this Project stages a promotional campaign under the theme of "Wuhan Hong Kong Brand Week", aiming to promote the collective image of Hong Kong brands and products and to help the industries especially SMEs to better understand the domestic market and explore business opportunities in the Mainland particularly Central China. It features a series of diversified activities that tie in with the current needs of Hong Kong SMEs, including a training workshop and an experience sharing seminar with emphasis on the strategies and practices of Hong Kong brands in exploring Chinese market; a showcase gallery at the "2012 Hong Kong Trendy Products Expo, Wuhan" (the Expo) to display the brands and products of selected Hong Kong companies, accompanied by a questionnaire survey on visitors with an eye to understanding the preferences of local consumers; and a business networking meeting to facilitate the business matching between Hong Kong brands and Mainland distributors.
