Iron products have been produced there since ancient times. Centuries ago, bronze swords, crossbows, and shotguns were made there. Currently, the flagship goods produced in Yongkang are tools and machines. In Yongkang, the industrial value of this industry is 90%. Other tool manufacturing centers in China are Foshan and Zhongshan in the Guangdong Province.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe City of Metal\u201d is not the only name of Yongkang. It is also the \u201cDoors Capital of China.\u201d It is estimated that the city produces 25 million doors and similar products every year, of which almost 1\/3 are placed on foreign markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Yongkang is the main production region of:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>power tools (1\/3 of all Chinese production)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>building materials<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>steel tableware (more than half of Chinese production)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>doors, especially anti-burglary (70% of the Chinese market and 2\/3 of Chinese exports)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>accessories for motor vehicles and motorbikes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Mind that most factories specialize in manufacturing a product from a specific category. If you want to import a variety of products and equipment, be ready to visit many factories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factories and wholesale markets of doors and hardware in China<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you plan to visit several factories, we advise you to schedule <strong>up to two visits per day.<\/strong> Many people are unaware of long distances in China, and therefore it takes a lot of time to move between points. To increase your chances of making a great deal, it is worth preparing well for the <a href=\"https:\/\/examinechina.com\/blog\/negotiate-chinese-companies\/\">negotiations with Chinese partners<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can minimize the potential risk by having the Chinese factory checked. It is also important to <a href=\"https:\/\/examinechina.com\/credit-report\/\">verify the contractor<\/a>, regardless of whether you have met them or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As with other production bases, there are also clusters of wholesalers in Yongkang. All kinds of tool products are found in the <strong>Jincheng <\/strong>(\u91d1\u57ce\u5e02\u573a) market.
