Sources and verification
Is this trade fair worth visiting?
✓ Yes
Yes, especially if you source Industrial Machinery, 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 Industrial Machinery, Textiles & Fashion, you already have verified suppliers and only need repeat orders, or the potential volume does not justify the trip.
Tips for visitors
A fair specialized in machinery, not finished textile product: useful if your business manufactures or needs to equip a textile production line, not if you're looking to buy fabric or ready-made garments.

Quick guide to Nantong

Getting around
Nantong Xingdong Airport (NTG) is about 10-13 km from downtown, with mostly domestic flights and a few international routes (Taipei, Seoul, Osaka, Bangkok). The most practical option if coming from abroad is to fly to Shanghai (Pudong or Hongqiao) and continue by high-speed rail: since July 2020 there's a direct Shanghai-Nantong connection via the Hutong Yangtze River Bridge, with journeys from 66 minutes. The city has its own metro (Line 1, opened in 2022).
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.
