Phase 1 of the 137th Canton Fair concluded on April 19th, delivering impressive results despite a complex international trade and economic environment. As of the closing day, the number of overseas buyers reached 148,585, covering 216 countries and regions globally, a 20.2% increase compared to the same period of the 135th edition.
At 3:00 p.m. on April 19th, the reporter observed that Spanish electromechanical devices buyer Carlos was still having in-depth discussions with the technical team of Guangdong Saite Intelligence in the smart manufacturing zone. "We need to finalize the factory visit details before the exhibition closes," Carlos said, showing the reporter his notebook filled with technical parameters. "The barriers set by the U.S. market have made us even more determined to closely align with China's innovation capability."
This "no slowdown after the closing" phenomenon became a unique highlight of this year's fair. Huang Yao, brand marketing director of Havit, revealed that her booth hosted several buyers from the Middle East and Southeast Asia in the last two hours of the event. Huang observed that the first two days mainly saw European clients, while the following three days were dominated by customers from Asia and other regions. Notably, there was a particularly high number of buyers from countries involved in the Belt and Road Initiative this year.
"At present, we hold the number one market share for gaming headsets in Brazil, surpassing well-known brands like JBL and SONY," Huang said. "This year, we launched a groundbreaking open-back headset in the gaming industry. Even in the afternoon of the fair's closing, a Nintendo distributor from Thailand expressed interest in collaborating with us."
"In Africa, for every 1.5 batteries, one comes from Tiger Head," said Alex Zhou, Party secretary and deputy general manager of Tiger Head Battery, owned by Guangzhou Consumer Goods and Services Group Ltd. He told the reporter that Tiger Head Battery secured over 6 million dollars in tentative orders at this year's Canton Fair, and they also had clients arranging factory visits.
African buyer Neo told the reporter that in Africa, batteries from Tiger Head are synonymous with "high quality," as their high market share leads many African consumers to view Made-in-China batteries as a symbol of"great value for money."
"Our green and low-carbon LED screens received orders worth over one million dollars during the Canton Fair, from Rwanda!" said Li Li (a pseudonym), booth manager of Inspur Intelligent terminal Co., Ltd. She told the reporter that this year at the fair, they showcased over 30 products, including an AI+ smart service terminal tailored for overseas clients, suitable for retail, medical, and transportation scenarios. This product attracted many inquiries from buyers.
Xiong Mincheng, a staff member at Guangdong Duni Intelligent Robot's booth, observed that previously, customers only wanted the "basic models" of robot vacuums, but now there is a growing demand for more advanced smart features. "At present, we have received numerous inquiries for our robot vacuums, mainly from countries and regions like South Korea, Europe, and the U.S. At this Canton Fair, we also signed orders for these two models of robot vacuums on-site, which will support our production for the next six months."

中国智造破壁关税冲击，广交会一期境外采购商同比增长超20%
第137届广交会第一期于4月19日落下帷幕，在复杂国际经贸环境下交出了亮眼答卷：截至闭幕当日，到会境外采购商达148585人，覆盖全球216个国家和地区，较第135届同期增长20.2%。
4月19日下午3时，记者在智能制造展区看到，来自西班牙的机电设备采购商卡洛斯仍在与广东赛特智能的技术团队深入洽谈。“我们要赶在闭馆前敲定探厂的细节。”卡洛斯向记者展示着写满技术参数的笔记本，“美国市场设置的壁垒，反而让我们更坚定要与中国创新力量深度绑定”。
这种“闭展不降温”的现象成为本届展会独特注脚。海威特品牌营销总监黄瑶向记者透露，其展位在最后两小时仍接待了来自中东、东南亚的多名采购商。黄瑶观察到，今年在开展的前两天接待的主要是欧洲客户，后面三天则主要是亚洲等地区的客户，而且今年共建“一带一路”国家的采购商尤其多。
“目前，我们在巴西地区的电竞耳机市场占有率第一，甚至超过了JBL、SONY等世界知名的耳机品牌。”黄瑶说，今年他们对外推出了一款游戏行业首创的开放式耳机，在闭展的下午还有来自泰国的任天堂代理商有兴趣与他们进行合作。
“在非洲，每1.5个电池就有1个来自虎头。”广州轻工集团虎头电池公司（以下简称“虎头电池”）党委书记、总经理周松毅告诉记者，本届广交会上虎头电池揽获超600万美元的意向订单，同时还陆续有客户约访工厂。
来自非洲的采购商Neo告诉羊城晚报记者，在非洲，虎头电池等同于“高品质”，因为超高的市场占有率，许多非洲消费者都把来自中国的电池产品视为“物美价廉”的代表。
“我们的这款绿色低碳LED屏幕在这届广交会期间拿下了百万美元的订单，来自卢旺达！”浪潮智能终端有限公司展位负责人李丽（化名）告诉记者，今年广交会，他们带来了30多款产品，其中一款为海外客户定制化的适用于零售、医疗、交通等场景的AI+智能服务终端吸引了众多采购商询盘。
广东杜尼智能机器人的展位工作人员熊闽成观察到，以前的客户买扫地机器人只要“基本款”，现在对于智能的要求越来越高。“目前我们的扫地机器人接到的询盘很多，主要出口向韩国、欧美等国家和地区。这次广交会上，我们也在现场签下了这两款扫地机器人的订单，足够支撑我们半年的生产。”
