The 2025 World Sea Cucumber Industry (Yantai) Expo and Marine Food Expo will be held from July 4 to 6 at the Yantai International Expo Center.
Themed "Supply-Demand Linkage for Win-Win Results, Industry Integration for Common Development", this Expo features an exhibition area of 12,400 square meters with dedicated zones, including China Sea Cucumber Zone, International Sea Cucumber Zone & Leading Sea Cucumber Enterprises Zone, Marine Ingredients Zone, Marine Functional Foods Zone, Premium Health Supplements Zone, Regional Public Brand Zone and Technology & Equipment Zone. It will bring together enterprises across the entire sea cucumber industry chain, creating an open floor for industry observation, new products launching, and channels connections.
Compared with previous editions, this year's Expo also features a High-Quality Development Forum for the Sea Cucumber Industry. Experts and scholars from across the sea cucumber industry chain will conduct in-depth dialogues and prospective discussions centered on the development of the global sea cucumber industry, challenges and bottlenecks in China's sea cucumber industry, sea cucumber demand trends in the catering sector, and development of sea cucumber marketing systems in the internet era.
The Sea Cucumber Expo highlights Yantai’s local strengths as well as its global influence. In 2020, during the First World Sea Cucumber Industry Expo, Yantai was designated the "Permanent Host City of the World Sea Cucumber Industry Expo”. To date, the Expo has developed into China's largest and most professional sea cucumber exhibition, playing a key role in promoting the high-quality development of the sea cucumber industry, deepening global collaboration and exchange, and enhancing the city’s reputation.
