• arclein

The trade fair, held from April 13 to April 17, consisted of 25 exhibition halls. On display were mostly traditional products, except for exhibition halls 7, 8, and 9, which displayed high-tech products. Good booth locations were taken by developed countries and newly developing countries, as well as Turkey, India, and former Soviet countries in Eastern Europe. Their booths ranged in size from 60 to 500 square meters (645.83 square feet to 5,382 square feet). Products made in China, however, were displayed in the least favorable areas, with 90 percent of booths ranging in size from 9 to 12 square meters (96.87square feet to 129.17 square feet) only.
