Marca China 2025: A Strategic Gateway for Processed and Frozen Seafood in Asia – When it comes to expanding markets and new opportunities for processed agri-food products, Marca China 2025 stands out as one of the most significant international trade events. This year’s edition, set for September 25–26 at the Guangzhou Poly World Trade Expo Centre, marks a major turning point: not only is the fair completely renewed, but it has also been strategically relocated to Guangzhou, the economic hub of Southern China and a key access point to Southeast Asia.

Spanning a 20,000-square-meter exhibition space, the fair will host over 500 exhibitors, including OEM/ODM producers and specialized suppliers, presenting the best in food and non-food private label goods to an audience of more than 20,000 professional visitors. The event format includes B2B matchmaking, thematic pavilions, and dedicated forums, placing strong emphasis on international dialogue and global cooperation.

For companies in the processed and frozen seafood supply chain, the move to Guangzhou is more than just a logistical change—it signals Asia’s growing demand for private label products with high quality standards, traceability, and sustainability. These are precisely the areas where Italian seafood producers have already proven their excellence.

Asian buyers—particularly from China, South Korea, and Vietnam—are increasingly interested in premium European seafood references, both ready-to-eat and IQF, with distinctive packaging and strong brand storytelling. In this context, participating in Marca China 2025 could be a game-changer for businesses aiming to enter new markets with a structured and strategic approach, including collaborations with local partners or regional distributors.

The connection to Italy is far from secondary. Marca China is the sister fair of Marca by BolognaFiere, the leading European private label exhibition, which recently concluded its 21st edition with over 1,300 exhibitors and 23,000 professional visitors. This shared trade show expertise ensures consistency in quality, organizational competence, and international buyer selection.

In the seafood sector, where Italian offerings still struggle to gain stable footing in Asian markets—often due to logistics or taste adaptation—events like Marca China offer a valuable platform. Within a business-driven, private-label-oriented trade fair, values such as short supply chains, full traceability, and Made in Italy processing can finally find their niche.

Marca China 2025 thus represents a prime opportunity for international expansion across the agri-food industry and beyond. For seafood businesses—especially those in the processed and frozen segments—attending a fair of this caliber means positioning competitively in rapidly evolving markets and building solid relationships with Asian buyers and distributors. It’s an opportunity that deserves forward-looking consideration.
