Booming global demand for security products prompts Global Sources to launch new China Sourcing Fair: Security Products in Hong Kong
Sunday, October 12, 2008
Security Products Pavilion at China Sourcing Fair: Electronics & Components to expand into new show at AsiaWorld-Expo Oct. 12-15, 2009
HONG KONG, Oct. 12 /Xinhua-PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Due to strong demand
from both buyers and suppliers, Global Sources (Nasdaq: GSOL) (
http://www.globalsources.com ) plans to expand its growing Security Products
Pavilion at the China Sourcing Fair: Electronics & Components to become a
specialized China Sourcing Fair: Security Products.

The two shows are scheduled to be co-located at AsiaWorld-Expo in Hong
Kong every April and October, starting Oct. 12-15, 2009. The China Sourcing
Fair: Security Products is set to feature pavilions for CCTV & digital
surveillance, access controls, alarms and home security.
Global Sources' Executive Director, Sarah Benecke, said: "Every business,
from schools and retailers to airports and hospitals, needs security products
-- ranging from alarms and locks to CCTV and fire protection. Increasingly,
consumers are also looking to protect their families by investing in home and
car security systems.
"We are confident that this new show will be a winner, as ever-changing
technology, government legislation, increased security threats and an increase
in construction throughout the world are also helping to fuel growing global
demand for security products. A strong indication of demand is the more than
1.1 million requests for information that volume buyers sent to security
products suppliers on Global Sources Online for the twelve-month period ending
June 2008.
"Our new, dedicated show for security products is the perfect platform in
Hong Kong for Greater China suppliers to meet face-to-face with professional
buyers who need to satisfy this massive demand.
"Just some of the buyers we regularly see at our Security Products
Pavilion at the Electronics & Components show include big international names
such as Best Buy, Bosch, Carrefour, Chubb, Circuit City, Halfords, Home Depot,
Kesa Electricals, Kingfisher, Panasonic and Sony."
A Security Products Pavilion will continue to feature at the Electronics &
Components shows in Mumbai, India this Nov. 14-16 (to be managed by Pico Event
Management under license from Global Sources), and in Hong Kong, April 12-15,
2009.
