Smaller / first-time Indian companies start as visitors to understand global market positioning, then graduate to exhibiting. We arrange both delegations.

Can I combine CAC with factory visits in China?
Yes — Shanghai and Jiangsu province host many agrochemical manufacturers. Our ground team coordinates factory visits before or after the fair. Many Indian buyers combine CAC with visits to Chinese AI manufacturers in Jiangsu / Shandong / Zhejiang.
