The Shanghai New International Expo Centre is China's leading expo centre with state-of-the-art facilities. Situated in Shanghai's Pudong district, the heart of Chinese business, SNIEC has attracted worldwide attention since its opening in November 2001. Featuring a prime, easily accessible location, a pillar-free, single- story structure, and a wide array of expert on-site services, SNIEC has been experiencing rapid growth. It now hosts more than 60 world-class exhibitions each year and this number is set to grow in future.

Currently, SNIEC has 11 exhibition halls with 126,500 sq. metres of indoor exhibition space and 130,000 sq. metres of outdoor exhibition space.

SNIEC plans to complete all its facilities and reach full exhibition capacity by the end of 2010. By then, the centre will contain 200,000 sq. metres of indoor floor area and 130,000 sq. metres of outdoor area. SNIEC's future expansions will cement its market leadership in China and secure Shanghai's position as the forefront of East Asian exhibition destinations.

The Shanghai New International Expo Centre is jointly owned by Shanghai Lujiazui Development (Group) Company Ltd, Deutsche Messe AG, Messe Duesseldorf GmbH and Messe Muenchen GmbH.
