    President of European Fishing Tackle Association (EFTTA): European Fishing Tackle Show (EFTTEX) must accept Chinese companies

    Editor's note: The Fishing Tackle Professional Committee has led a group to participate in the European Fishing Tackle Exhibition for two consecutive years, and set up booths to promote the work of the association, domestic fishing tackle production bases and brand enterprises, which has led more Chinese companies to participate in the European Fishing Exhibition. Recently, "Angling International" (international professional fishing gear magazine) published an article, we believe that the article reflects the same problems encountered by China's manufacturing industry in the international arena, China's manufacturing industry is increasingly recognized by the international community. However, we must do our own thing. The president of the European fishing association has said that Europe should not regard Chinese companies as a threat and that the association will continue to work with Chinese manufacturers at the European fishing tackle show. In an exclusive interview with Angling International (an international magazine for professional fishing gear), Mr. Pierangelo Zanetta firmly stated that it is the responsibility of the European Fishing Association to cooperate with reasonable and legal Chinese manufacturers. His opinion was seen as controversial. It followed a complaint filed by Colvin, the Stephen of the Eyelevel Sunglasses company, who was an exhibitor at the Vienna European Fishing Show in June this year. The British company complained that the board of directors of the European Fishing Association allowed Chinese companies to participate in the exhibition, which would lead to unfair competition. "We can't ignore the fact that most of the products at the show are made in China," Zanetta said. "Our industry has moved production to a low-cost country and we can't cry now. It's really the same problem for any product." "If we see the Far East as a danger we have nowhere to go. We have taken a step where there is no turning back. The EFA's responsibility is to work with the Chinese producer association so that we can promote the 'good 'companies and take a hard line against the 'bad' companies. This is the right strategy, and it is too late for protectionism." "These countries are getting rich and they will soon have the opportunity for European companies to sell their products," Zanetta added. "I am pleased to see that the number of European companies at the China Tackle Show continues to increase."
