Rewarding View From the Top |

This year, more than 600 exhibitors from 20 countries and regions, including MINIMA, Redtenbacher Prazisionsteile GesmbH, Sonya Valentine Pty Ltd, are taking part, providing unmatched sourcing opportunities for buyers from all over the world.

Zero in on Zones |
 |
The fairground is divided into five product zones and seven group pavilions. Brand Name Gallery is one of the best places to check out new season product launches of branded eyewear, such as British brand TD Tom Davies’ second Natural Horn Collection for Autumn 2011 and French brand Lafont’s full collection of optical frames and sunglasses. In its third appearance at the fair, the gallery features over 150 important brands from 18 countries and regions. Accessories will also be introduced in the Eyewear, Frames, Lens & Accessories Zone.
Thanks to advancements in technology that have made contact lenses more comfortable and hygienic, they are now more widely accepted. In order to help industry players thrive in this market area, Hong Kong Optical Fair is introducing a new zone called Contact Lens & Accessories to facilitate efficient sourcing of such items. Other product zones include Optometric Instrument, Equipment and Machinery Zone and Trade Services Zone.
