1. The Biggest Pain Point for European Buyers

Over 40% of European buyers say their biggest sourcing challenge is not finding suppliers — it's finding a supply chain they can truly trust. Traditional B2B platforms apply at least two price mark-ups and show only product photos. The market looks abundant but suffers from severe information asymmetry.

2. What "Supply Chain Landing" Actually Means

Jiumo's "Supply Chain Landing" is not simply factory-matching. It is a methodology that engages the supply chain at industry level:

▶  Strategic entry: at industry level, not product level, starting from source factories in the Yangtze Delta.

▶  Precise matching: 3+ verified factories connected within 7 days, with CE certification and full compliance support.

▶  Sustainable foundation: a traceable, trustworthy supply chain partnership — not a one-off transaction.

3. The Yangtze Delta's Six Key Industries

The Yangtze Delta is China's fastest-upgrading manufacturing region. Six key industries comprehensively serve European market demand, with real export data confirming competitive strength:

4. The Foundation of Jiumo's Three-Step Method

Supply Chain Landing is step one — and the foundation of the entire strategy. Without supply chain credibility, a store is an empty shell. Without a store, brand co-forging has no accelerator. Without brand co-forging, even great products compete only on price. A high-standard start determines the quality and ceiling of every step that follows.

5. Why Now Is the Strategic Moment

Tariff pressures have made direct factory access a competitive necessity, not just an advantage. Meanwhile, Yangtze Delta manufacturing is upgrading fast: electrical machinery exports up 9.4%, EVs up 43.9%, advanced equipment up 10.2%. Chinese manufacturing is shifting from low-cost to high-quality. Miss this moment, and you miss the biggest dividend of that shift.
