About ERDA China

Booth ApplicationMarked

ERDA China (EuroShop RetailDesign Award China) is derived from ERDA which is one of the supporting programs of EuroShop Trade Fairs. ERDA is organized by Messe Düsseldorf GmbH and EHI since 2008 to award the most compelling store concepts from all candidates. A well-honed mix of store architecture, colours, materials,lighting and visual merchandising, the clear communication of the product range as well as direct means ofappealing to customers are key criteria for the jury of experts.

As the Chinese retail industry has formed its own pattern with Chinese characteristics during its development, one set of criteria is no longer the optimal assessment for retail designs in both China and other countries, we establish ERDA China for the unique needs of the Chinese retail industry, and invite more domesticexperts to join the jury and crown the outstanding store designs in China.
