The 5th Hangzhou International Tea Industry Trade Fair

The 5th Hangzhou International Tea Industry Trade Fair coincides with the peak season for spring tea, leveraging Hangzhou’s position as a “Thousand-Year Tea Capital” to gather quality resources from source production areas, creating a professional platform for spring tea procurement, tasting, communication, and trade. Historically, Hangzhou has been a flourishing center for tea, where the Tea Sage Lu Yu once resided, and the West Lake Longjing tea is renowned for its four characteristics: vibrant color, rich aroma, sweet flavor, and beautiful form. This fair highlights the important role of Hangzhou in international tea culture exchange while showcasing the deep heritage of local tea culture, integrating modern consumerism to provide a unique platform for exhibitors and buyers.

This year's tea expo will fully exploit Hangzhou’s dual advantages of digital economy and tea industry vitality, gathering new products from the country’s core spring tea regions, showcasing innovative digital achievements in the tea industry, and creating fusion demonstration products that combine tea with other industries to promote cross-industry cooperation, igniting new enthusiasm in the tea sector for 2026, and aiming to advance the high-quality development of the “new quality” tea industry. The exhibition scope includes six major tea types, herbal teas, various tea utensils (such as ceramics, purple clay, metals, bamboo, wood, etc.), various tea packaging products (such as tea jars, tea gift boxes, etc.), tea industry chain-related items (such as tea aesthetic spaces, tea attire, tea water, tea machinery, etc.), and various cultural items (such as tea ceremony, floral art, incense ceremonies, etc.).

To facilitate in-depth exchanges between exhibitors and buyers, a series of events will be held during the fair, including premium tea recommendation sessions, tea brand investment meetings, award-winning tea tastings, expert forums, and performances of tea arts and ceremonies, effectively shortening the distance between suppliers and buyers while enhancing trading efficiency.
