Canton Fair Phase 2

Phase 2 of the 139th Canton Fair Spring session is scheduled for April 23–27, 2026. The organiser states opening hours as 9:30–18:00. The venue is the China Import and Export Fair Complex in Guangzhou, and the official address is published as No. 382, Yuejiang Zhong Road, Guangzhou 510335, China. For Phase 2 planning, these parameters define the practical boundaries for buyer routing and supplier meetings across home and lifestyle categories: five days, consistent daily hours, one complex, and a stable official venue reference for all invitations and appointment confirmations.

Officially, Phase 2 concentrates on Houseware, Gift & Decorations, and Building & Furniture. This phase is therefore used for sourcing decisions tied to home consumption and interior supply chains: kitchen and tableware, household items, decorative products, and building and furnishing solutions. Because the categories are explicitly published by the organiser, Phase 2 can be navigated as a procurement map for lifestyle goods and interior projects, where buyers validate supplier range, packaging readiness, export documentation routines, and the ability to deliver consistent batches for retail, hospitality, or project supply.

Given the organiser-defined structure of Phase 2, the participant mix is naturally dominated by manufacturers and exporters of housewares, décor and gifting products, and building and furniture suppliers, alongside professional buyers sourcing for retail, distribution, project channels and cross-border commerce. Since the Canton Fair is the China Import and Export Fair, Phase 2 meetings are commonly focused on product assortment depth, model variation, packaging and labelling readiness, and the supplier’s ability to support repeat procurement cycles. The value of Phase 2 is that buyers can compare multiple factories within the same subcategory on the basis of a published official scope, keeping supplier assessment consistent and reducing the risk of wasting onsite time on irrelevant segments.

On the official phase introduction, Phase 2 is broken into Houseware, Gift & Decorations, and Building & Furniture with detailed sub-sections. Houseware includes General Ceramics, Kitchenware and Tableware, Household Items. Gift & Decorations includes Glass Artware, Home Decorations, Gardening Products, Festival Products, Gifts and Premiums, Clocks, Watches and Optical Instruments, Art Ceramics, Weaving, Rattan and Iron Products. Building & Furniture includes Building and Decorative Materials, Sanitary and Bathroom Equipment, Furniture, Stone/Iron Decoration and Outdoor Spa Equipment. This is the authoritative list for pre-show sourcing plans, because it defines what the organiser considers in-scope for Phase 2 and therefore what buyers should expect to see onsite.

The organiser lists the venue as the China Import and Export Fair Complex and provides the address No. 382, Yuejiang Zhong Road, Guangzhou 510335, China. For Phase 2, this is particularly important because many buyers schedule multiple supplier meetings per day across housewares, décor and building/furniture zones; using one official venue reference simplifies invitations, transfer planning and meeting coordination. Since daily opening hours are fixed at 9:30–18:00, buyers can structure a consistent meeting cadence across all five days without needing to re-check varying schedules by hall.
