Attending overseas exhibitions has been one of the best ways for Jiuzhou Metal to connect with our fellows who are searching for the right metal products for their businesses. Following the successful exhibition in the UAE in January, we just had another very constructive exhibition in Dusseldorf, Germany from April 15th to the 19th.

Held at the Dusseldorf Exhibition Center, Dusseldorf Wire and Pipe Exhibition in Germany is known for being the largest and most authoritative cable and wire exhibition in the world. It is an exchange platform aimed to provide purchasers and suppliers from all over the world with the latest information on wire and pipe products, and to facilitate possible business transactions.  The attenders were mostly from Europe, while some came from countries like Brazil, the United States, Iran, North Africa, etc. The most featured products of this exhibition mainly include stainless steel pipes and pipe fittings, alloy plates, steel pipes and pipe fittings, carbon steel coils and wire rods.

After having a few very informative conversations with some of the attenders, we realized the amount of European buyers who prefer to import such items from China is on the rise, and is expected to keep growing in the next few years. Compared with suppliers from other countries, Chinese suppliers stand out in terms of order lead time, taking advantage of the economy of scale and large inventory level. This is particularly valued by businesses with a tight project schedule. Another reason why they like to buy from China is that Chinese manufacturers can better cater to the customization requirements that are very complicated and less universal, with their highly specialized production facilities and advanced techniques. Besides, the after-sale services offered by Chinese suppliers are usually more considerate and friendlier, making the importers feel reassured to place orders.

Overall speaking, this exhibition laid a solid foundation for Jiuzhou Metal to break into the European market of wire and pipe items in the future. In the meanwhile, we gained the trust and recognition from a large number of businesses at the exhibition who had been seeking the right products. And we are confident that they will have the chance to benefit from what Jiuzhou metal can offer to them sometime in the future!
