DepotFit Shines at the 135th Canton Fair 2024
The 135th China Import and Export Fair (Canton Fair), held from October 15 to November 4, 2024, in Guangzhou, China, was a tremendous success for DepotFit. This prestigious trade event, which attracted over 250,000 buyers from more than 200 countries and regions, marked another milestone in our commitment to bringing world-class warehouse automation solutions to global markets.
Our booth in the Industrial Automation Machinery section became a focal point for visitors seeking advanced warehousing solutions. Throughout the three phases of the exhibition, our team welcomed over 5,000 visitors, including procurement managers, logistics directors, and business owners from Taiwan, Southeast Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and the Americas.
