The China (Shanghai) International Boat Show was started 19 years ago.
Over the years the show has grown and while, like any market, there has been the occasional year where the growth has reversed slightly, CIBS has gone from strength to strength.
The numbers of the Visitors and Exhibitors, along with the exhibition area, enclosed, are audited by the third party.
