The 2021 Hong Kong Brands and Products Shopping Festival (Festival), organised by The Chinese Manufacturers’ Association of Hong Kong (CMA), will be held during 6 and 8 August 2021 at AsiaWorld-Expo (AWE). It aims to capture the traditional peak holiday shopping season and people’s revenge spending as still being stuck in the city.
There will be more than 250 stalls, located at five thematic zones namely Leisure Food Zone, Health Preserving Food Zone, Living & Household Products Zone, Fashion & Beauty Products Zone, as well as a brand new zone of Pets Healthcare. Similar to past expos ogranised by the CMA, the Festival will feature a range of products, exclusive shopping deals up to 90% off, daily surprises, thrilling booth games and promotions. Limited time-deals and prizes will also be available for people to grab via live video streaming.
At today’s press conference, CMA President Dr Allen Shi said he is confident that the Festival will receive an enthusiastic response from members of the public. “The continued spread of the coronavirus worldwide has led to travel plans being put on pause. As a result of the pandemic being seemingly under control in Hong Kong, and the ease in local social distancing restrictions, there will be nothing stopping Hong Kong people from getting out there,” he said. “With the first chunk of electronic consumption vouchers dishing out on 1 August, the Festival is expected to boost summer sales and, ultimately helping businesses to sail out of the adversity and to drive Hong Kong’s economic recovery.”
The CMA Exhibition Services Limited Chairman cum CMA Vice President Mr Ivan Sze shared that the commissioning of Tuen Mun-Chek Lap Kok Link Northern Connection since last year has made Lantau, Ngong Ping and Tung Chung even more popular among local people for leisure and sightseeing. “The HKPBE was held on Hong Kong Island for decades. Hosting the event at AWE will be a great opportunity for us to promote the expo brand to citizens in the Northwest New Territories.” He also thanked the MTR Corp for their support to the event by offering a massive discount on Airport Express tickets.
