Where can find quality outdoor furniture companies?

Before the outbreak, one of the most common ways to find a trusted manufacturer of outdoor furniture was to attend a furniture fair in China.

The three most popular and largest exhibitions in China include:
A-Canton Fair (China Import and Export Fair).
The exhibition is held twice a year in three phases. Each stage showcases products from different industries. Furniture is included in the second part.
B-China International Furniture Fair
This is the largest exhibition in China and even in the world, held in March and September every year. Most exhibitors are from China and Hong Kong, but there are also companies from North America, Europe, Australia and Asia.
C-China International Furniture Fair
This antique and contemporary furniture fair is held every September in Shanghai, China. It runs concurrently with Furniture Manufacturing and Supply (FMC) China, so you can attend both exhibitions in the same location.
