KBC — China International Kitchen & Bathroom Expo

中国国际厨卫家居博览会
Shanghai · SNIECAnnual
Sector pickBoth directionsDates confirmedHome & Interior
International
3 / 5
Schedule: Confirmed on the organiser site: the 24th KBC runs 26–29 May 2027 at SNIEC, Shanghai (checked 2026-09-20)
Why it matters

Kitchen and bathroom fittings for both the retail and property-development channels. Chinese developers increasingly specify imported sanitaryware in premium projects, which is where a European brand has room — the mass market is firmly domestic.

Who is in the room

Kitchen and bathroom retailers, developers, contract project buyers

Good fit for
  • Premium sanitaryware and fittings brands
  • Kitchen systems and appliance makers
  • Surface and worktop material suppliers
Note

Property-developer specification cycles are long and payment terms can be difficult. Vet your partner's financial position.

Furniture China — China International Furniture Expo · 31st edition

Shanghai · SNIECAnnual
Sector pickBoth directionsDates confirmedHome & Interior
International
3 / 5
Schedule: Paired with Maison Shanghai at SWEECC (7–10 Sep). Combined figures across both venues: 350,000 sqm, 3,200+ brands
Why it matters

One of the largest furniture fairs anywhere, but predominantly Chinese manufacturers selling outward. Its value to a foreign company is mostly on the sourcing side, or in the components and materials halls if you supply into production.

Note

If you are a finished-furniture brand hoping to sell into China, Maison Shanghai next door is the better room. Do not book both without a reason.

Maison Shanghai — Design Week

摩登上海时尚家居展 / 摩登上海设计周
Shanghai · SWEECCAnnual
Sector pickSelling into ChinaDates confirmedHome & Interior
International
4 / 5
Schedule: Runs as a two-venue pairing with Furniture China at SNIEC (8–11 Sep), staggered by one day so buyers can do both
Why it matters

The design-led half of Shanghai's September furniture week, and the more useful half for a European brand. Where Furniture China is production and volume, Maison Shanghai is specification — designers and hotel developers choosing pieces. That is where an imported brand can hold its price.

Who is in the room

Interior designers, specifiers, hotel and property developers, lifestyle retail buyers

Good fit for
  • Premium furniture, lighting and homeware brands
  • Designer-led studios seeking Chinese specifiers
  • Textile and surface brands for hospitality projects
Note

Specification cycles are long. Expect this to seed projects 12–18 months out, not to produce orders in the hall.

CIFF Shanghai — China International Furniture Fair · 58th edition

中国（上海）国际家具博览会
Shanghai · NECC HongqiaoAnnual
Sector pickBoth directionsDates confirmedHome & Interior
International
4 / 5
Schedule: From a Chinese industry schedule — confirm with the organiser before booking. Note this is distinct from Furniture China at SNIEC the same month
Why it matters

The Shanghai edition of the CIFF brand, positioned more towards design and premium retail than the Guangzhou export fair. September in Shanghai is genuinely crowded with furniture events — this, Furniture China and Maison Shanghai all run within days of each other in three different venues.

Who is in the room

Furniture retailers, designers, contract and hospitality project buyers

Good fit for
  • Premium and design-led furniture brands
  • Contract furniture suppliers for hospitality
Note

Three overlapping furniture fairs in one Shanghai week across three venues. Work out which one your specific buyer attends before booking anything.
