China seafood show cancelled due to COVID restrictions
The China Fisheries and Seafood Expo scheduled for Nov. 9 -12 has been cancelled because of ongoing concerns that mass events will fuel the spread of COVID 19 in China.
The show was originally scheduled for October, but was postponed to November in hopes the COVID restrictions would be eased in Quingdao, where the event was to take place.
On the show’s website, Peter Redmayne, president of Sea Fare Expositions, the overseas organizer of the event, said “the new dates for the show will be determined when the COVID situation improves and large trade shows such as China Fisheries & Seafood Expo can again be held in Qingdao.”
More than 1,200 companies from 30 countries have signed up to exhibit at the event. An estimated 22,000 visitors from throughout China are expected to attend.
