There are still more than four months until Christmas, but Yiwu City in Zhejiang Province, China known as the “world’s supermarket”, has opened the “Christmas season” early, as reported russian.china.org.cn.
From Christmas trees to various decorations, local factories and markets are bustling with activity and showing rapid growth.
The reason for the peak in Christmas supplies to Yiwu can be attributed to the new trend in the market this year: early ordering and early delivery, which encourages businesses to do their utmost to deliver products to the global market on time.
According to Hangzhou Customs, from January to July this year, Zhejiang Province’s Christmas export volume reached 9.11 billion yuan, up 23.0% over the same period last year.
