MommyLove OEM/ODM Factory arrived at the Canton Fair site on May 2nd and found that this year's Canton Fair had a large number of visitors. Since last year, the baby and child category has been separated from the household goods general category, which provides more convenient ways for customers to find precise suppliers. This year's Canton Fair new products of the baby bottle, water cup, and tableware categories are not very rich, and there are not many new factories, which I think is closely related to the global economic downturn. Because the current market is a market of existing quantities, not a market of increasing quantities. In the future, the traffic of B-end customers will also become more dispersed, which is a new challenge for professional factories engaged in branded custom processing. The cost of marketing is increasing, and the team's ability to learn, adapt, and integrate will also face a test. We recognize the changes in the market and constantly adjust our team to provide better products and services. Let's work together to contribute to the development of the global baby and child industry and shine together.
