About this fair
ACLE 2026, the All China Leather Exhibition, takes place from 1 to 3 September at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre and focuses on the professional leather supply chain. It brings together raw hides and skins, finished leather, chemicals, machinery, components, accessories and manufacturing technologies. For importers and manufacturers of footwear, leather goods, upholstery or automotive products, it is a high-value event because tanneries, finishing suppliers and processing companies can be compared during the same trip. Exhibitor figures published before the event may change as sales progress, so this listing treats the official dates, venue and organisers as the firm verified data.
Most in-demand products
Hides and skins, finished leather, tanning chemicals, machinery, footwear and leather-goods components, synthetic materials, accessories and processing technology.

Is this trade fair worth visiting?
✓ Yes
Yes, especially if you source Textiles & Fashion, want to compare samples in person or negotiate with several manufacturers in a few days.
— Not necessarily
Probably not if your product belongs to a different sector than Textiles & Fashion, you already have verified suppliers and only need repeat orders, or the potential volume does not justify the trip.
Tips for visitors
With leather, do not compare only the price per square foot. Define species, grade, thickness, finish, tolerances, colour fastness, restricted substances and end use. Request representative samples and testing before approving mass production.

Getting around
Shanghai has one of the world's largest metro networks. SNIEC is mainly served via Longyang Road/Huamu Road and NECC via East Xujing/National Exhibition and Convention Center, depending on the entrance. The Maglev links Pudong Airport with Longyang Road in about eight minutes; continue from there by metro or taxi.
On local networks in mainland China, some international services may be restricted or unavailable. If you rely on them for work, prepare a connectivity solution that complies with current rules before travelling and do not depend on a single app. Hong Kong operates under a different internet regime.
