Brisk Online Business During Spring Festival
Entrepreneurs of ceramics in Dehua County of Fujian Province received through the Internet a number of orders with sample pictures from the United States and Germany while gathering together with family members during the Spring Festival holidays.
A manager of a group company says that it is marvelous to do business while relaxing for days.
Located in the center of the province, Dehua is relatively backward in communications and information, which restricts the export of their ceramic products. The county government established a computer network service department, and registered a website on the Internet.
Up to now, over 350 enterprises have posted information to the Internet in both Chinese and English, and sample pictures taken with digital camera. They gather various bits of information including clients' opinion through the Internet, and send and receive emails as well.
