The exhibition halls are filled with international buyers, many seen dragging their luggage straight from the airport to attend the event.
The show has attracted attendees from 193 countries and regions, with particularly strong interest from emerging markets along the "Belt and Road" initiative, including India, the Middle East, and South Africa.
The expo has adopted a staggered scheduling mechanism for the first time. The Modern Shanghai Design Week at the SWEECC venue runs from September 9-12, while the Furniture China exhibition at the SNIEC venue continues from September 10-13.

Kaimu Home Furnishings has impressed visitors with three series: DAPU, PUSU, and CEESL. A European designer noted that what Kaimu offers is "not products, but a complete life solution with global aesthetics".
The integration of smart technology is particularly noteworthy. Many exhibitors are showcasing smart home functionality, such as electric assist standing, massage, heating, and reclining features that make technology a medium for family love and care.
