In the afternoon`s negotiating session, each purchaser was given a negotiating table. Since the organizing committee had been working on trade matching 3 months prior to the conference, most suppliers and purchasers had contacted each other ahead of the conference, thus they could get straight to the point while negotiating, which greatly improved the efficiency of their negotiation. This is also FSC`s unique and distinguishing feature.

Targeted at foundry industry, FSC has the largest scale in China mainland, and is fully in market-oriented operation. It has become an important foundry sourcing platform carrying a big weight in foundry industry. Based on global casting purchaser database and China foundry supplier database, FSC will carry out continuous improvement, innovation and optimization in accordance with market demands. In line with the principle of high efficiency and fast pace, we elaborately design conference process. From pre matching, buyers holding procurement presentation and suppliers holding products promotion, suppliers displaying their samples to negotiation face to face, FSC hopes to promote direct negotiation and trade between suppliers and buyers through many ways.
