From September 2 to 4, 2026, PandaSugar exhibited at the 102nd Tokyo International Gift Show Autumn 2026 at Tokyo Big Sight, introducing Japanese businesses to our product sourcing, customization, and supply chain services in China.
Tokyo International Gift Show is one of Japan’s largest international trade shows for gifts and lifestyle products, bringing together brands, manufacturers, buyers, retailers, and other industry professionals from Japan and around the world. The exhibition covers a wide range of categories, including home and lifestyle products, fashion, stationery, toys, consumer electronics, and more.
At this year’s show, PandaSugar introduced our one-stop sourcing service built around 1688 and China’s local supply chain. While 1688 provides access to a vast network of Chinese manufacturers, wholesalers, and products, sourcing from China can still be challenging for overseas businesses due to language barriers, supplier communication, payments, customization, quality control, and international logistics.
PandaSugar helps simplify this process through our local team in China. We assist international businesses with supplier sourcing, quotations, purchasing, OEM and ODM customization, quality inspection, multi-supplier consolidation, and international shipping.
During the exhibition, we met face-to-face with businesses and buyers from Japan and other markets, demonstrating the PandaSugar sourcing platform and explaining how our sourcing process works. Customers can provide us with a 1688 product link or simply tell us what they are looking for. Our team can then identify suitable suppliers and assist with samples, logo and packaging customization, quality control, consolidation, and shipping according to the requirements of each project.
The exhibition also gave us a valuable opportunity to better understand what Japanese businesses expect when sourcing from China. In addition to competitive pricing, product quality, accurate specifications, customization capabilities, efficient communication, and reliable delivery are all important considerations.
For PandaSugar, sourcing is not simply about finding products. Our role is to build a more efficient, transparent, and reliable connection between international buyers and Chinese suppliers.
Japan is an important market that PandaSugar will continue to develop. Through our participation in Tokyo International Gift Show, we were able to introduce PandaSugar and the capabilities of China’s supply chain to more Japanese businesses while gaining a deeper understanding of their sourcing needs.
Looking ahead, PandaSugar will continue to participate in trade shows and industry events around the world, meet more customers face-to-face, and improve our global sourcing services — making China’s supply chain easier and more accessible for businesses worldwide.
