Suppliers reveal that the purpose of the FSC conference is clear which is of a high level conference in China. First of all, it offers a chance for the global purchasers and suppliers to have a face to face talk with each other. Second, it helps both of them to have a better understanding of each other through the purchasing presentations and the product presentations, such as the purchaser’s requirement of the suppliers, the audit standards and procedure, etc. Last, it is a good chance to study advanced management experience and new technology from others. In this way, it is of great help for the promption of the Chinese castings.

FSC conference has become an .indispenpensable way for domestic casting enterprise to develop the international market. At the same time, it is also an important platform for overseas casting purchasers to get to know the Chinese casting suppliers. Through the conference, CFSU offers not only a professional communication platform for suppliers and purchasers, but also offers the professional online platform--the official website of China Foundry Suppliers Union, which is corresponding with FSC sourcing conference. In this way, we believe that CFSU will make much more contributions to the development of the Chinese Casting Industries.
