Largest-ever Travel Incentive group to visit Toronto Toronto, ON – 16 May 2016 – Exhibition Place and Enercare Centre played host to delegates from Perfect (China) on Sunday, for the organization’s highly-coveted annual world-wide incentive event.

The 4,500 attendees spent Sunday in conference sessions at Enercare Centre before culminating in a lavish gala dinner for all delegates. Over 9000 meals were served in a traditional Chinese culinary style serviced by the exclusive in-house caterer Spectra FS.

With over twenty years in service, Perfect (China) is one of China’s leading direct-sales businesses. In previous years, cities such as Milan, Amsterdam and Los Angeles have hosted the company’s annual event. This was the first Canadian visit for Perfect (China), as the City of Toronto welcomed it’s largest-ever incentive travel group.

“We were so pleased to welcome the delegates from Perfect (China) at Enercare Centre.” said Arlene Campbell, General Manager, Sales & Event Management of Exhibition Place. “With Exhibition Place’s premiere convention centre, ideal location in downtown-west, picturesque grounds and proximity to Pearson International airport, we were a natural match for a group of this magnitude on their first Canadian visit.”

Dianne Young, CEO of Exhibition Place and Chair of the UFI Sustainability Committee stated, “Exhibition Place was delighted to welcome Perfect (China) and their 4500 attendees to the premier meeting place in the City of Toronto. With the dynamic Enercare Centre being a LEED Gold certified building and Allstream Centre a LEED Silver certified conference facility we were able to host this large incentive group in an environmentally sustainable manner.”
