Bidders for LNY fair stalls must be at least 18 years old and ordinarily reside in Hong Kong.

Anyone can bid for more than one stall. A bidder must pay the bid price and register in person with his or her own name as the licensee of the stall immediately after successfully bidding for a stall. The bidder is also required to sign at once a licence agreement with the FEHD, or he/she will forfeit the rights to operate the stall.

All fair sites will be made available to the licensees three days in advance of the fairs (from January 20 to 22, 2025) for the setting up of stalls. In the event of any unforeseeable incident that will cause reduction of the whole licence period (including the duration for setting up stalls and the business period of the fair), the Government has the right to postpone the commencement date and shorten the duration of the period. The bidding price (licence fee) paid will be refunded to the successful bidder on a pro-rata basis without interest.

Stall licensees must completely remove the stall structure and all paraphernalia, together with all refuse, debris and unsold commodities (whether damaged or otherwise), from the licensed area before 7am on January 29, 2025 (9am for the Victoria Park LNY Fair).

The FEHD reminded licensees that the stalls are solely for the purpose of selling and promoting the sale of the permitted commodities, and no other activities are allowed in the licensed area. If the FEHD considers that any activity conducted by the licensee to publicise, promote, display, show or sell any permitted commodities in the venue is unlawful, contrary to the interest of national security, immoral or incompatible with the object of the LNY fair, the FEHD is entitled to direct the licensee to stop conducting such activities, and the licensee must immediately comply with the direction.

Stall licensees should not destroy, damage or abandon any unsold commodities at or in the vicinity of the stall. They may surrender unsold flowers and plants left behind at the stall to the FEHD at no charge, cost or compensation whatsoever, before 7am on January 29, 2025 (9am for the Victoria Park LNY Fair).

According to the licence agreement, except inside designated stalls, licensees must not keep, store or use any compressed helium cylinder in the licensed area. Whereas licensees of the designated stalls may keep, store or use helium cylinders in the licensed area, the quantity of helium should be such that a licence is not required pursuant to the Dangerous Goods (Application and Exemption) Regulation 2012 (Cap. 295E), i.e. equivalent to 150 litres of helium. Sales of floating LED glowing balloons and aquarium fish by stall licensees are prohibited at the LNY fairs.

In addition, as stated in the licence agreement, the height of dry goods stalls must not exceed three metres from ground level. The height of wet goods stalls and fast food stalls must not exceed 4.5m from ground level. For wet goods stalls and fast food stalls with a height of more than 3m from ground level, the licensee must, at his own costs, provide the FEHD with the original certificate issued by an authorised person, a registered structural engineer, or a competent person under the Construction Sites (Safety) Regulations (Cap. 59I) to certify the structural safety of the structure in the licensed area before the fair is opened to the public. The licensee must also affix a copy of the aforesaid certificate on the structure of the stall.

Successful bidders shall comply with all the stipulations and provisions as set out in the licence agreement. Otherwise, the department is entitled to terminate the agreement and the licensee shall immediately vacate the stall.

Details of the 2025 LNY fairs, such as the public notice, the locations and layouts of the fair venues, commodities allowed for sale at the fair stalls, open auction arrangements and related rules, and a sample of the licence agreement, are available on the FEHD website (www.fehd.gov.hk). For enquiries, please call the FEHD hotline 2868 0000.

InvestHK Annual Meeting Highlights Hong Kong's Role as Asia-Pacific Business Hub

2024-12-06 09:00 Last Updated At:09:08

Invest Hong Kong's annual meeting concludes with mission to attract enterprises and investment through global synergy

​Invest Hong Kong (InvestHK) concluded today (December 6) its annual meeting, which gathered key representatives from its 34 overseas and Mainland offices, as well as officials from other bureaux and departments, for cross-departmental sharing and discussions to further synergise its efforts in promoting Hong Kong as a premier business hub in the Asia-Pacific region.

The annual meeting was packed with cross-geographical and sector-team discussions, knowledge sharing and a fireside chat with officials from different bureaux and departments, including the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau, the Innovation, Technology and Industry Bureau, the Hong Kong Talent Engage, and the Trade and Industry Department, as well as visits to innovation and development hubs and business partners in Hong Kong and Shenzhen.

The theme of the annual meeting, "One Team with One Mission", underscores the unified commitment of 34 global offices to working jointly to attract enterprises and investment. As of November 2024, InvestHK has assisted over 500 Mainland and overseas companies to set up or expand their businesses in Hong Kong, representing a year-on-year increase of nearly 50 percent. The annual meeting serves as a key platform for exchanging insights and uniting InvestHK's global efforts to explore innovative strategies to attract foreign direct investment, reinforcing Hong Kong's position as the leading international business location in Asia.

The highlight of the annual meeting was InvestHK's Annual Reception held on the first day. It brought together more than 500 guests from all over the world, including business leaders, valued partners, and representatives from consulates and chambers, promoting cross-sector collaboration and synergy.

In his opening remarks, the Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development, Mr Algernon Yau, said, "Hong Kong's unique advantages continue to be recognised by the international community. As the only economy in the world where the global advantage and the China advantage come together, Hong Kong is ranked again as the freest economy in the world by the Fraser Institute in its latest report. In the Business Ready 2024 Report recently published by the World Bank Group, Hong Kong was rated among the top in international trade. Hong Kong indeed has a lot to offer for companies around the world, which would like to set up regional headquarters to tap into the Mainland market, or for Mainland companies aiming to go overseas through Hong Kong."

The Permanent Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development, Ms Maggie Wong, kicked off the annual meeting and delivered a keynote speech, welcoming and thanking InvestHK's staff for their efforts in promoting Hong Kong globally. She also expressed confidence in Hong Kong's future and encouraged active collaborations and discussions within the Government to promote the city's strengths.

Concluding the annual meeting, the Director-General of Investment Promotion at InvestHK, Ms Alpha Lau, said, "It has been a remarkable year for InvestHK, and I am proud of the progress we have made together. While external challenges exist, our continued growth reflects our resilience and readiness to embrace new opportunities. We have overcome challenges in the past, and we will continue to do so in the future. This is the spirit of InvestHK - agile, determined, and always ready to go the extra mile to serve our clients."

The annual meeting included visits by InvestHK's overseas staff to innovation and development hubs in Hong Kong and Shenzhen, including Cyberport, Hong Kong Science and Technology Park, Northern Metropolis and Kai Tak Sports Park, as well as BYD Group, Shenzhen HighGreat Innovation Technology Development Co Ltd and Ping An Finance Centre in Shenzhen. Through these visits, the overseas staff gained first-hand insights into the rapid developments in these two places, enabling them to tell Hong Kong stories even better in the markets where they are based.
