Summer Hiring Surge for Christmas Production
To meet high order volumes, Yiwu factories have ramped up production capacity. One company reported a 20% year-on-year increase in orders and has purchased more automated rope-threading machines and hired 50 to 60 summer workers to help meet production pressure. The company's daily bag production capacity has reached 250,000 to 300,000 units.
This hiring surge in summer underscores the earlier production cycle for the 2026 Christmas season.
