SINO GRANDNESS takes part in two F&B trade fairs annually, the one in Chengdu in 1H of the year being the bigger one by far.


The second one, whose venue changes every year and is on a smaller scale, was held in Nanjing last weekend. (In Oct 2014, Sino Grandness took part in the F&B trade fair in Chongqing where it achieved about RMB300 m in orders).

These trade fairs have proven to be a productive platform for Sino Grandness with significant orders for its beverages.

In 2014, for example, the orders received at two trade fairs amounted to RMB690 m, or 37% of Sino Grandness' beverage sales that year.

NextInsight and several Singapore analysts visited the Nanjing trade fair after checking out the company's production plant in Hubei.

Visiting at the same time were Joseph Chia, a director of Thoresen Thai Agencies (TTA), which became a substantial shareholder of Sino Grandness about a year ago.

He was accompanied by Kamolsut Dabbaransi, the son-in-law of Prayudh Mahagitsiri, the controlling shareholder of TTA. Mr Dabbaransi is Executive Vice President, Head of Food & Beverage, at TTA. (For more, see: )
