It’s that time of year again, when all the people in China go on vacation, eat and drink non-stop for two weeks, and set off so many firecrackers the country sounds like a war zone…

What are we talking about? It’s Chinese New Year coming up!

The Year of the Rat is starting February 7th, and it’s cause for celebration in China. Think of the Chinese New Year being like Christmas, but ten times as long and ten times more partying.

How does this affect you?

Well, during the New Year holidays in China, everyone stops working. Yep, every kind of business – factories, couriers, trucking companies, banks, and offices – simply shut down for two weeks.

You can probably see the disruption to business this causes.

If you are regularly importing products from Chinavasion or any other Chinese supplier, you need to act now to secure your advance stock.

Don’t Worry – Chinavasion’s warehouse stock will help you get through the disruption, but nothing can be shipped out between 3rd and 14th February, when the couriers like DHL and FedEx resume their operations, so please plan around that.

So, once again, act now to secure your stock before it’s too late. :)
