Every furniture hall in Foshan, and what each one is for
Ordered roughly from the top of the market down. If you are planning a first trip, walk one from the bottom of this list and one from the top on the same day, in that order.
Louvre International Furniture Exhibition Centre 罗浮宫国际家具博览中心
The name buyers recognise before they land. Louvre is the top of the Lecong market: European classical, heavy carved sets, high gloss lacquer, and the brands that want a showroom looking like a museum.
high end 02Sunlink Furniture City, North Area
Where most serious buyers actually spend their second day. Modern and solid wood, a strong office furniture presence, and a redwood section that has its own regular customers.
mid to high 03Sunlink Furniture City, South Area
The volume end. Sofas and beds in quantity, at prices that make a container work. If you are filling a shop or a hotel and the design does not need to be unique, start here.
budget to mid 04Empire Furniture City
One of the affordable halls buyers pair with the Sunlink South area when they are working to a budget and need options rather than prestige.
budget to mid 05Dongheng Furniture City
An affordable hall in the Lecong cluster. Buyers use it the way they use Empire and Dongming, as another set of prices to hold the first quote against.
budget to mid 06Dongming Furniture City
Another of the affordable Lecong halls. Same job as Dongheng on a buying trip: options, a price floor, and a wide set of suppliers to keep in touch with.
budget to mid 07Nanhua Furniture City
Completes the affordable group. Most useful to buyers who need breadth across a range rather than depth in one category.
budget to mid 08Red Star Macalline, Foshan 红星美凯龙
A national retail chain rather than a Lecong wholesale hall, so it behaves differently. Branded, retail priced, aimed at Chinese domestic customers.
