The 91st China Food and Drinks Fair started in Chongqing National Expo Center, Chongqing Municipality from October 12 to 15.
With an exhibition area of 204,000 square meters, the fair took place across 13 large indoor exhibition halls and a multifunctional hall between the north and south exhibition areas.
It included 10 international exhibition sections – for example, international food, wines and spirits. More than 2,000 exhibitors set up booths, and the show is expected to attract 200,000 visitors.
Visitors can register at the entrance and visit for free. To enhance public participation and encourage more interaction, the 2014 Chongqing specialties exhibition will be held at the outdoor plaza of Chongqing National Expo Center.
