Exhibitors’ Echo

"Noova is an Italian brand of fashion sneakers featuring ultra-light soles and the use of water-proof reflective nylons in the uppers. Looking to open up new markets beyond Italy, we have joined CENTRESTAGE with the objective of building a distribution network in Asia, allowing us to sell our products at top-tier multi-brand stores. This has been our first endeavour in Asian region. Being the first-time exhibitor at the show, we have displayed our main collection alongside a capsule collection with RZ Studio Milano designed by Roberto Zampiero who is with me at the fairground.Thanks to the HKTDC, some business matching meetings with buyers from Beijing, Guangzhou and other Mainland China cities are arranged during the event days. A tour comprising Italian buyers led by the organiser visited us this morning on the inaugural day. Roberto and I were happy to meet with our existing clients again at CENTRESTAGE. We also met with some walk-in visitors coming from Beijing, Hong Kong, Taiwan and the United States. They have a strong interest in products designed and made in Italy. Our choice of nylon material as a strong selling point also counts. With an appealing venue decoration, CENTRESTAGE offers a good environment and atmosphere for making business. In a nutshell, we are satisfied with the overall quality of exhibitors here." 
Enrico Ferri, Head of Marketing, Noova, Italy

"Established in 2015, MEIKING NG is a homegrown contemporary womenswear label which has participated in CENTRESTAGE annually since its inception four years ago. The show is scheduled ahead of other fashion events in the new season. As a Hong Kong designer, I enjoy the home advantage that I can always grasp the opportunity to release my latest collection at the signature Fashion Hong Kong Runway Show, which is a desirable event to gain media exposure. This year, the HKTDC is doing a good job to launch a more extensive publicity campaign for the show. Thanks to the host, business matching meetings with buyers from Ningxia and Wuhan of Mainland China and Italy are arranged for me. A walk-in visitor from an upscale department store of Paris shows a strong interest in my sunglasses collection. Building connections is a step closer to making co-operations." 
June Ng, Founder and Chief Designer, MEIKING NG, Hong Kong

"Established in 2015, we are one of the leading showrooms in Shanghai. With a mission to identify on-trend, saleable and profitable products, showrooms play a key role to attract buyers in any fashion events. Returned to CENTRESTAGE for the third time in a row, we continue to introduce new labels from Mainland China and overseas to buyers. Last year, bulk orders were received after trial orders from mainland buyers were placed at this show. This year, Hades Pluto, Annexion, Comme Le Vent and some other brands showcased their Spring/Summer 2020 Collection here. Our showroom has introduced a group of mainland buyers to CENTRESTAGE for business matching. As one of the highlighted brands at our showroom, a virtual apparel platform AnnEleven which specialises in personalised apparel received orders.” 
Kimi Fan, CEO, RV-PRO Showroom, Mainland China

Buyers’ Commentary

“In business for 10 years, Zalando is the biggest fashion e-tailer in Germany. We carry a large number of international brands mainly from Europe and the US, providing a wide range of products from women’s wear, sportswear, shoes, accessories, jewellery and watches. I am visiting CENTRESTAGE for the first time to find new brands especially from Asia. So far, I’ve found a very nice jewellery brand LESIS from Taiwan that offers appealing collections with a mix of gold and pearls. This show also features some interesting young designer brands for women’s wear. I am still looking around for fashion brands from Hong Kong, Korea and Taiwan at the fairground. The concurrent Hong Kong Watch & Clock Fair creates a good synergy. I’ve also identified two brands from Mainland China and Taiwan for automatic watches. Their prices are very competitive for their quality. On fashion and jewellery items, I am now waiting for the line sheets from the brands for further discussions. Orders usually involve 500 to 1,000 pieces each. CENTRESTAGE is a good show with new inspirations.” 
Catherine Beckert, Senior Buyer Watches, Zalando Se, Germany

“We are a fashion retailer operating four multi-branded stores in Nanjing. Our business has been up and running for six years, carrying over 20 womenswear brands mainly from Korea and Spain. We focus on everyday wear and collections for work environment. This is my first-ever visit to CENTRESTAGE to find something new and interesting. Japanese brand BASIC presents very attractive and stylish bags with unique colours and designs. The women’s collection showcased by Hong Kong brand Lapeewee comes with good quality fabrics and nice shapes. Their styles suit our customers’ preferences very much. Another potential brand is Super-X from Hong Kong that offers a special fabric for sportswear. Further talks will be held to conclude business. I expect to finalise orders within two months. Order amount is subject to pricing. I would like to visit the fair again and meet more brands for business development.” 
Vesper Lu, Purchasing Manager, Nanjing Hua Qimao Trading Company Ltd., Mainland China

“We are the biggest fashion retailer in Myanmar with a history of over 30 years. We currently operate 14 stores under the brand of 119 Fashion Complex in the capital city of Yangon. The group continues to expand and aims to open at least one to two stores each year. This is our second-year visit to CENTRESTAGE to source new designer brands. The fair features many interesting brands and new inspirations. We are now in touch with KOTRA to explore cooperation with a host of Korean brands. Their bags and backpacks are very attractive. Consumers in Myanmar are very fond of Korean fashion items so we are keen to source more Korean brands. At CENTRESTAGE, we also find the footwear showcased by Italian brand SUSIMODA appealing while the flats for women by Macau’s Lexx Moda come with very nice patterns. We look forward to developing business and carrying the brands at our stores.” 
Aung Kyaw Soe, Marketing Manager, Living 9 Co. Ltd, Myanmar
