WOF Wenzhou Optics Fair Wenzhou

The Wenzhou International Optics Fair (WOF) is an annual trade show that has established itself since its inception in 2003 as one of the most important platforms for the optical industry in China. Organized by the experienced Donnor Exhibition Co., Ltd., the fair offers professionals an excellent opportunity to explore current trends, technologies, and innovations in the field.

Wenzhou is one of China’s key hubs for eyewear and optical production. Numerous manufacturers—particularly small and medium-sized enterprises—are based in the region, making the city a major center for innovation, manufacturing, and export. The fair highlights this role and reinforces Wenzhou’s reputation as the "City of Glasses," much like Shenzhen is known for electronics or Yiwu for small commodities. Deeply rooted in its host city, the WOF symbolizes the close connection between local production and global market presence.

On a national level, the event also plays a significant role in strengthening China’s position as a global leader in the optics sector. The country is not only one of the world’s largest producers of eyewear and optical components but is also emerging as a technologically advanced market—marked by smart glasses, modern eye diagnostics, and automated manufacturing systems.

What makes the WOF particularly relevant is its comprehensive focus on the entire value chain of the eyewear and optics industry. Every spring, manufacturers, wholesalers, retailers, and professionals from areas such as eye care, eyewear production, and optometry gather to discover new products, forge business relationships, and pursue strategic partnerships. Key themes include sunglasses, optical frames, lenses, accessories, packaging, display design, as well as machinery and equipment for eyewear manufacturing—a diverse yet precisely curated offering.

The event is held at the state-of-the-art Wenzhou International Convention & Exhibition Center, which provides ideal conditions for international trade fairs thanks to its excellent infrastructure. Wenzhou itself serves not only as an economic hub but also impresses visitors from around the world with its cultural diversity and wide range of attractions.

With its clear focus on industry professionals, targeted sector profile, and carefully selected themes, the Wenzhou Optics Fair is far more than a conventional trade show—it serves as a driving force for the future of the optics industry in Asia and is a must-attend event for professionals across the entire sector.

Already for the twenty-third time the WOF Wenzhou Optics Fair takes place on 3 days from Fri., 09.05.2025 to Sun., 11.05.2025 in Wenzhou.
