Dear Exhibitors, Visitors, and Partners,

We sincerely appreciate your continued support and trust, which have been instrumental to the success of the past three editions of SIAL Shenzhen.

To better align with the autumn trade season and expand our reach across Southern China and international markets, we are pleased to announce that SIAL Shenzhen will be relocated to Guangzhou in 2026, continuing as the 4th edition under the name "SIAL in China South · Guangzhou" (abbreviated as "SIAL Guangzhou").The event will take place from September 3 to 5, 2026, at the Poly World Trade Center Expo.

Since SIAL in China's debut in 2000, the event has cultivated the market for 26 years, bringing together over 55,000 exhibitors from 75 countries and regions and attracting more than 1.5 million food and beverage professionals from 125 countries and regions.

In recent years, SIAL in China has adopted a dual-city strategy, covering the full spectrum of the global food and beverage value chain. The decision to organize the trade fair in Guangzhou marks a strategic extension and continued investment in the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area.

Guangzhou, located at the economic, transportation, and trade hub of Southern China, has emerged as a leading city for international exhibitions.

As home to China's most concentrated cluster of food wholesale markets and professional buyers, Guangzhou provides an ideal springboard for global brands to strengthen their presence in Southern China, extend their influence into Central China, and connect with overseas markets. Guangzhou is not only China's southern gateway to the world but also a global hub for food trade.

The Poly World Trade Center Expo, situated at the heart of the Pazhou Exhibition Area, offers exceptional convenience with direct metro access and proximity to major cities within an hour's reach across the Greater Bay Area, ensuring a better event experience for exhibitors and visitors.

SIAL in China will continue to leverage its global influence, extensive buyer network, and brand communication platform to enable food and beverage enterprises to expand in the region.

Building on the strong foundation of the past three editions in Shenzhen, SIAL in China South · Guangzhou 2026 will a deliver greater business results for all participants.

“This strategic extension perfectly aligns with our ambition to deepen SIAL in China's reach across Southern China, while offering our international exhibitors a gateway to one of Asia's most powerful economic and technological ecosystems. It's a natural evolution within South China's dynamic landscape. By choosing Guangzhou, we are strengthening our presence in one of China's most modern, connected, and fast-growing trade hubs.”
