This separate part of Zhongshan City concentrates a large number of lamp factories. Also, many companies have showrooms there, making access to numerous types of lighting much easier. Participation in trade fairs in Guzhen or nearby Guangzhou, and in particular a personal visit to the Guzhen lighting market or the factory, makes it more probable to make a better deal than when we hold the negotiations through intermediaries or trading companies. These types of visits should not collide with the most important Chinese holidays, which usually don\u2019t fall on the same date every year. Below you&#8217;ll find a guide to Guzhen lighting markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Guzhen<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Guzhen is located in the Xibei district of Zhongshan City, Guangdong Province. To the north, it borders Foshan. Its name means &#8220;Ancient Town&#8221;. It is estimated that the number of permanent residents in the city is 75,000, with a floating population of up to 30,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Guzhen is called &#8220;China\u2019s Lighting Capital&#8221;. The lighting industry has been developing there since the 1970s. According to the statistics, the sales of lighting in Guzhen take 70% of the total sales volume of Chinese lighting.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"http:\/\/examinechina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/guzhen-map-1024x548.png\" alt=\"Guzhen lighting\" class=\"wp-image-1059 lazyload\" width=\"700\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/examinechina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/guzhen-map-1024x548.png\" alt=\"Guzhen lighting\" class=\"wp-image-1059 lazyload\" width=\"700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.examinechina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/guzhen-map-1024x548.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.examinechina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/guzhen-map-300x161.png 300w, https:\/\/www.examinechina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/guzhen-map-768x411.png 768w, https:\/\/www.examinechina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/guzhen-map.png 1104w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Guzhen &#8211; production region of LED lighting in China<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are almost 30,000 lighting companies registered in Guzhen. The area is in first place when it comes to selling lighting in China. In such a wide range, everyone will find products tailored to their requirements. Thanks to the low cost of production, the factories supply high-quality goods at reasonable prices. Lighting production takes up to 88% of the total industrial production of Guzhen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The largest number of Guzhen lighting outlets is located at the seven-kilometer-long Xinxing Street. There you can find many markets specializing in LED lighting, for example, Chuangzhan LED Wholesale Market, Dongfang LED Wholesale Market, Shihao LED Wholesale Market, and Yongwei LED Wholesale Market. Below we present some of the larger places with a wide range of lighting options located in Guzhen.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"http:\/\/examinechina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/led-production-region-china.jpg\" alt=\"LED production region China\" class=\"wp-image-1060 lazyload\" width=\"600\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/examinechina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/led-production-region-china.jpg\" alt=\"LED production region China\" class=\"wp-image-1060 lazyload\" width=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.examinechina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/led-production-region-china.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.examinechina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/led-production-region-china-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.examinechina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/led-production-region-china-768x515.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source:&nbsp;<em>jczxb.com\/news\/show.php?itemid=1778<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong style=\"color: inherit;\">Star Alliance Global Brand Lighting Center<\/strong> <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Although it opened relatively recently, in 2014, it enjoys a reputation.
