Selling Into China – Why Your Goods Are A Luxury Item In China

For many decades China has remained closed off to Western brands and products, however with the opening up of the Chinese market in the past 20 years coupled with the emergence of eCommerce in recent years – companies now have the best chance possible to connect directly with Chinese consumers. Importantly as China previously engaged in strict protectionism policy – western goods that are now being sold in China are being seen as luxury items by the Chinese consumers attracting a higher yield than in their home countries.
