Phase 3, or do not come for us.
China is lint.
Phase 1 is 15–19 October, Phase 2 is 23–27 October, Phase 3 is 31 October–4 November 2026. The complex is shut on the changeover days.
The 140th Canton Fair is scheduled at the China Import and Export Fair Complex in Guangzhou from 15 October to 4 November 2026. Phase 1, advanced manufacturing, is 15–19 October. Phase 2, home goods, is 23–27 October. Phase 3, the “Better Life” phase that includes textiles, garments, and food, is 31 October–4 November. The complex is closed for changeover on 20–22 October and 28–30 October. Confirm the phases on cantonfair.org.cn before you fly. Zarkaar does not publish a booth.
China on our books is 28 mm cotton lint, ceiling 30 mm, heading 5201. It is not mango, not onion, and not a rice desk. A food hall in Phase 3 does not create a fruit lane. A machinery hall in Phase 1 does not either. If you want lint, come in Phase 3 or book a call. The gin is in Punjab, we do not own it, and the fair does not move it to Guangzhou.
Why the other phases waste the ticket
The fair is enormous. Our sentence is small.
Phase 3 only
Textiles are in this phase, which is why a lint buyer might be in the building. Food is in this phase too, which is why someone will ask for mango. The answer to mango is no. The answer to lint is the staple, the bale record, and a proforma. We will not print a cents price on the floor. The basis is not a badge.
Vietnam and Turkey are not Guangzhou
Those mill countries already sit on the lint-to-mills page. A Chinese fair does not merge them into one duty rate. We still do not print a China–Pakistan FTA rate on a page. The FTA note explains why.
Changeover days
No stands are open on 20–22 or 28–30 October. Do not propose a meeting on a shut day and call it flexibility. The online fair runs beside the physical one. A screen is still not a phytosanitary certificate.
Hong Kong is a different show
Asia Fruit Logistica is a fresh-produce fair in Hong Kong, in September, and it is not a China fruit entry either. Do not book Guangzhou in October and Hong Kong in September and expect one mango contract to fall out. There is no China mango contract.
