Yiwu port put a lot of effort to create a more efficient customs clearance process. This is beneficial to everyone under COVID-19.

Yiwu City

In the early 1980s, China Yiwu city was an impoverished rural county historically known for its small traders, who mostly bartered sugar for chicken feathers during the Qing dynasty. When the China Yiwu Wholesale Market was opened in November 1982, it merely consisted of a few hundred sheds and stalls, but proved highly popular and grew quickly.

In 1983, the county government spent 580,000 yuan (US$293,567) to build a new market consisting of booths. By the end of that year, there were more than 1,000 vendors selling over 3,000 products, most of them from outside Yiwu China.

By 2013, it attracted more than 20,000 customers daily from all over the world and sold US$11 billion of goods annually. Till 2019, there are more than 80,000 booths for worldwide buyers to choose from in the China Yiwu Market.
