What kind of trade show it was

It was planned as a general show presenting Japanese products and culture together, covering everything from food to anime and industrial equipment. The concurrent IETF is an industrial trade show that CII has run since 1975, a framework that can be expected to draw visitors from Indian manufacturing.

No notice of a following edition has appeared since the first one, and the official website cannot be viewed at present. If you are considering taking part, you will need to contact JIIPA or CII directly.

Alternatives Japanese companies can use

If the aim is to meet Indian buyers in food and beverage, AAHAR (March, New Delhi) and Anuga Select India (September, Mumbai) draw visitors with clearer purposes.

For anime and character merchandise, Comic Con India is where you can see consumer reactions directly. For textiles and materials, Bharat Tex is the one that fits.
