1、Zeng Jinhui: "Cross-Border E-commerce + Industrial Clusters" Empower Brand Global Expansion
In his speech, Zeng Jinhui, Director of the E-commerce Division of the Shenzhen Municipal Bureau of Commerce, noted that the recently concluded Two Sessions placed special emphasis on promoting high-quality foreign trade. The “Cross-border E-commerce + Industrial Clusters” model is one of the key focus areas. Shenzhen boasts a complete cross-border e-commerce ecosystem, with over 100,000 enterprises and institutions in the sector and nearly 40,000 square meters of overseas warehouses. The Shenzhen Municipal Bureau of Commerce will fully support the global expansion of local brands.
Director Zeng Jinhui specifically emphasized that the home furnishing industry is one of Shenzhen’s traditional strengths, with a solid foundation and numerous outstanding enterprises. It will be a key sector supported by the Shenzhen Municipal Bureau of Commerce. The launch of this “Cross-border E-commerce + Industrial Clusters” exchange event will bring new opportunities for the development of home furnishing cross-border e-commerce, with the collaboration between both sides set to spark unlimited business potential.

2、Hou Keping: Building a Platform to Connect Overseas Buyers with Chinese Home Furnishing Brands
Regarding the reason for holding this exchange event, Hou Keping, Chairman of the Shenzhen Furniture Association, believes that China’s home furnishing industry is transitioning from a domestic demand-driven model to a dual-track strategy focused on high-quality global expansion. Notably, cross-border e-commerce has made significant breakthroughs over the past five years. In Shenzhen alone, home furnishing exports reached USD 32.5 billion, accounting for 45% of the national total—demonstrating strong demand and immense potential.
Chairman Hou also emphasized that under the leadership of the Shenzhen Furniture Association, China's home furnishing industry must pursue high-quality cross-border e-commerce characterized by original design, high standards, and strong intellectual property protection. This aligns perfectly with the long-standing values and philosophy of both the Association and the Shenzhen International Furniture Fair, and is supported by a solid industrial foundation.
Shenzhen, as the only Pilot Demonstration Area of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics, the core engine city of the Greater Bay Area, and a hub of technology and innovation, is uniquely positioned to take the lead in exploring a high-end path of “Cross-border E-commerce + Industrial Clusters.” This initiative aims to present Chinese home furnishings to the world—earning global recognition and helping the industry ride the wave of opportunity to go global.
▲Hou Keping, Chairman of the Shenzhen Furniture Association
At the same time, the Shenzhen International Furniture Fair recommended over 30 outstanding brands to the visiting overseas buyer groups, including Zuoyou Furniture, Renhao Furniture, CBD Furniture, Meichen, Rongshe, Jijian Home, Dious Furniture, Baiqiang, AIRLAND, DELVIS, Mengshen, Maxbond, Huameiju, Henglong Furniture, LITU Home, Xinsida Furniture, Youmei Youpin, Fuli Farrel, Youlian Weijia, DIPO, Ganhui, Yuanrong Home, Zhurui Home, Yonghaoxuan, Benshe, Mifei, Xinteli, Myth Lighting, MR.BU | Cuckoo, Xiangtian Lighting, Weishengtai, Shike Lighting, Mochen Optoelectronics, Meiting Lichuang, Lufu Bedding, and Contemporary Youth, among others, to participate in the matchmaking event.
3、Liu Qiang: Sharing Insights on "Brand Global Expansion" in the New Era
▲Liu Qiang, Chairman of Qianhai Jiumi
Liu Qiang, Chairman of Qianhai Jiumi, explained that while Chinese home furnishing brands have strong demand to go global, they also face challenges such as trade wars, customs clearance, warehousing, display, sales, operations, and after-sales service. To address these issues, Qianhai Jiumi partnered with Panding International to create China’s first independent furniture brand exhibition. Using a “1+10+N” model, it provides tailored solutions for various overseas expansion scenarios, including marketplace and store owner models, one-stop agency operations, multilingual and multi-currency support, personalized exclusive stores, flexible marketing, and membership management.
This one-stop export service matrix for home furnishing brands precisely covers core areas such as logistics, storage, foreign exchange settlement, taxation, and finance. It achieves efficient integration and smooth flow of data, goods, and capital, ensuring closed-loop management throughout the entire process. This empowers home furnishing brands to confidently expand overseas and explore unlimited possibilities in international markets.
▲Liu Bo, Chairman of Panding Group
Cross-border e-commerce is no longer the 1.0 model of small commodity exports but has entered the 2.0 era. It requires the integration of supply chain advantages, brand promotion and other resources, and the superimposition of B2B and B2C resources to build a brand-new "cross-border e-commerce + industrial belt" brand going global ecosystem.
