China’s RACC 2020 show set to go ahead

RACC 2020 will go ahead as scheduled at the Hangzhou International Expo Center

CHINA: RACC 2020, the China International Air-Conditioning, Ventilation, Refrigeration and Cold Chain Expo, is set to go ahead in Hangzhou in November as planned.

This will mark the second exhibition in this sector in China since the coronavirus pandemic. The rescheduled China Refrigeration show finally went ahead in Chongqing in August but with far fewer visitors and exhibitors. 

At a press conference last week, the organiser of RACC 2020 confirmed that the show would go ahead as scheduled from November 15-17. 

With two months to go, “nearly 300” companies are reported to have booked space for the event, less than half the 600 exhibitors expected. 

The exhibition will feature a number of forums and technical exchange meetings, and will provide free buffet, accommodation and transportation services for over 500 VIP purchasers.
