With the lifting of epidemic prevention measures in Hong Kong and mainland China, the economic atmosphere has greatly improved, with private consumption expenditure notably increasing, up 12.5% year-on-year in the first quarter of this year. Local demand strongly recovered, with the first quarter’s real GDP growing by 2.7% year-on-year, ending a four-quarter decline. The resurgence in economic growth is mainly driven by the significant increase in local demand, which will continue to be the main driving force of this year’s economic growth, supporting the return of the largest-ever Hong Kong In-Home Expo 2023.
Mr. Carl Wong, Chairman of Exhibition Group, pointed out: “With the distribution of consumption voucher, the consumption atmosphere has improved, and citizens are generally willing to invest more in home design and household items to improve the quality of life, thus enhancing overall happiness. Recently, we have noted disputes over decoration and design; the Hong Kong In-Home Expo 2023 aims to connect consumers with brands and relevant experts and scholars, enabling consumers to make savvy purchases and avoid pitfalls.”
The Hong Kong In-Home Expo 2023 showcases the latest, most unique, and diverse furniture products, with three major themes including interior design and building materials, furniture/bedrooms/bathrooms and kitchens, and home appliances and lifestyle areas. It covers five key elements: interior design, unique building materials, household items, home equipment, household appliances, and products, showcasing a wide array of home goods and designs. During the four-day event, several activities such as “Learn to Read Renovation Quotes to Avoid Pitfalls”, “Multiple Perspectives on Building Repair Laws”, “2024 Auspicious House Layout”, “Learn More about Fire Insurance, Save More” and “Hong Kong Furniture Association NEXT in Home Seminar” are featured. There’s also a “Grab to Buy” event during the exhibition period, where visitors have the chance to buy their favorite home products at extremely low prices.
