On April 13, the 6th China International Consumer Products Expo (Hainan Expo) and the 2026 "Shop in China" International Consumption Season officially kicked off in Haikou. Around 1,000 representatives from Chinese and foreign government authorities, domestic and overseas exhibitors, purchasers and enterprises attended the launching ceremony. This marks the Group’s sixth consecutive participation in the grand event. Fan Yunjun, General Manager of CTG, attended the ceremony and delivered a speech. CDFG took part in the high-end forum titled “Empowerment Amid Customs Closure, A New Chapter for Duty-Free — Global Brands Discuss the Future of China’s Duty-Free Market”.
Fan Yunjun pointed out that this Hainan Expo is the first major national-level exhibition following the full island customs closure of Hainan Free Trade Port. As one of the earliest central enterprises to settle in Hainan, the Group has always kept pace with Hainan’s development. Its market contribution keeps rising, more jobs are created, and the integrated development model of “culture, commerce, sports, tourism and health” continues to unleash vitality. Standing at a new starting point, the Group will uphold the philosophy of “Integrity in Operation and Premium Services”, build the “Shop in China” brand to connect with global markets, empower the innovation and upgrading of local brands, and offer richer products, better services and ultimate experiences for customers worldwide. Adhering to integrity-based innovation, quality and efficiency improvement as well as integrated development, the Group will jointly write the era chapter of “Opening-up Leading Global Consumption, Innovation Driving a Better Life”.
During the Expo, under the theme “Hainan’s Tide Rises, Stirring the World”, CDFG set up a booth shaped like a cutting-wave vessel to create an all-in-one “visit + experience + consumption” scenario. The booth displayed premium domestic and overseas goods across five categories: luxury fine products, watches & jewellery, cosmetics & skincare, 3C electronics and wines & spirits, demonstrating CDFG’s brand strength and supply-chain advantages. All CDFG duty-free stores in Hainan fully received exhibition visitors, launching exclusive discounts, distinctive services and immersive experiences. The 6th CDFG Watch Festival was held concurrently, enabling more people to share the dividends of duty-free consumption in the Free Trade Port.
CTG Automotive under CTG Capital gave full play to its professional strengths with advance planning and thorough preparation. It deployed 23 new-energy medium and large coaches to deliver safe, efficient and eco-friendly transportation services, providing solid capacity support for the smooth running of the Expo. CTG’s Hainan Regional Headquarters coordinated all business units based in Hainan to carry out marketing campaigns, leveraging the Expo’s influence to expand relevant businesses and contribute to the development of Hainan Free Trade Port and the International Tourism & Consumption Centre.
