Why it matters

The world's largest lighting fair, Messe Frankfurt-run and 260,000 sqm across roughly 2,800 exhibitors. The Pearl River Delta makes most of the world's LED product, so this is the definitive sourcing event for lighting — and a credible place to sell control systems, drivers and design services into that industry.

Who is in the room

Lighting distributors, electrical wholesalers, specifiers, export buyers

Good fit for
  • Lighting sourcing and private label
  • Controls, drivers and smart-lighting technology suppliers
  • Building electrical technology firms via the co-located GEBT
Note

Commodity LED pricing here is brutal. If you cannot compete on cost, position on controls, certification or design instead.
