Hear What the Buyers Say |

"I'm here for the first time and looking for Chinese medical products and medical devices. There's been some interest in Chinese medicine in Romania and ICMCM is a good sourcing platform for us. We've met exhibitors from Japan and Korea, etc. We are also pleased to see many exhibitors from the Chinese mainland. The fair is well-organised and I'll come again next year."
Cristian Alecu, General Manager, S. C. AC Farm Consulting, S.R.L., Romania
"This is the best fair for TCM (traditional Chinese medicine) and of good size. I find this fair rewarding because we can collect new ideas for future development here, and stay ahead of the competition. I'm interested in seeing raw materials and meeting suppliers at the fair. I hope to see more raw material suppliers, and will surely make plans to come again."

Even for ordinary products, buyers understand the unique and healthy qualities of organic materials. We joined the fair and target the Hong Kong market for this reason. We are happy that various buyers have shown interest in our products. The fair is well-organised and we will definitely come again next year. ”
Mr. Jemmy Pranyoto, President, Healthee USA, USA
