China’s Cafe Show China 2014: What to Expect

If you’ve ever wanted to see every piece of gear, bean, and brewing innovation under one roof—without hopping on a plane to Seoul—Cafe Show China is your answer. Launched as the official sister event to Asia’s largest coffee expo, Seoul Cafe Show, this Beijing-based show brings the global coffee scene to Chinese audiences with everything from green beans to industrial roasters.

Cafe Show China 2014 runs August 8–10, 9am–5pm daily, at the China International Exhibition Center in Beijing (main gate), and admission is completely free.

What Is Cafe Show China?

Cafe Show China is the premier coffee industry event in China, modeled after Seoul Cafe Show—the biggest coffee trade show in Asia. First held in China in 2013, it quickly became a key meeting point for coffee professionals and enthusiasts. In 2014, the show expanded its offerings, featuring not just coffee but the full ecosystem around it.

What You’ll Find at the Show

The 2014 edition covers the full spectrum of the coffee supply chain. That means fresh coffee beans (both whole bean and ground), soluble coffee, and a wide range of brewing and roasting equipment—from espresso machines and grinders to commercial roasters and manual brewers. But it doesn’t stop at coffee. The show also includes tea, soft drinks, bakery items, and ice cream, reflecting the full menu of products found in today’s specialty cafés.

Why This Matters for Coffee Professionals and Enthusiasts

This is more than a shopping mall for gear. It’s a live education hub where you can compare machines side by side, talk directly to producers, and get a feel for global coffee trends without leaving the country. Whether you're a café owner sourcing equipment, a home brewer curious about the latest grinder tech, or simply coffee-curious, you’ll find something relevant.
