South Africa Is Out Of The Market Prematurely, And Chinese Businessmen Have No Choice But To Reduce The Price Of Goods Such As Ball Uniforms

On the evening of June 22 local time, the Tangshan Restaurant in the Chinatown of Yoburg, South Africa, was ablaze with lights. Zhuang Ruiming, vice president of the Fujian Fellows Association of South Africa, president of the Mafiken Chinese Business Federation of South Africa, and several Fujian businessmen present were absent-minded about the meal. They were nervously watching the match between South Africa and France on TV.

These people all have at least ten million fortunes. They are not fans. Some businessmen don't even know the leading stars of the French team. But for these struggling Fujian businessmen from different places, whether the South African team can qualify is a huge business opportunity.

The bar is out of business

Zhuang Ruiming is from Fuqing, Fujian. After graduating from high school, he came to South Africa to work. Now he is the vice president of Fujian Fellow Association of South Africa. Mafeiken, more than 200 kilometers away from Johannesburg, owns a bar that is exclusively open to blacks. During the World Cup, as long as the South African team plays, the bar will be full. Soda, cola (the favorite drink of black people) and beer are often out of stock on the night of the game. Even Chinese herbal tea, some black people are willing to try it.

"As soon as the South African team is out of the game, the number of people coming to the bar to watch football is certainly not as many as before, and the business will certainly be affected."

It's not easy to sell the goods you hoard

China Trade City represents the amazing economic strength of South African Chinese. Here, you can feel the atmosphere of the World Cup. Some World Cup products can be seen everywhere. The main thing is that these products are cheap, which is a good choice for many South African fans.

In the mall, the best selling T-shirts of the South African team are all made in China. The boss, Mr. Lin, disclosed to the reporter clothing The cost of clothes is 20 yuan, while the final price in South Africa is about 80 yuan.

In the Trade City, the best products to sell are those related to the South African team. Many South African locals choose to go to the China Trade City to buy goods, and then transport the goods to the more remote countryside of South Africa.

　　 South Africa It was a big blow to Fujian merchants who had been hoarding goods before.

Many goods are still at sea

Zhong Chongjian, Chairman of the Property Management Office of China Trade City. Before the match between South Africa and France, he was a loyal South African fan. Because once the South African team is out, it will have a huge impact on Fujian businessmen who occupy a major position in the Chinese Trade City.

Zhong Chongjian told reporters with a little anxiety that many traders in the China Trade City for the World Cup this year are working hard and ready to do a good job. However, before the World Cup, the customs of South Africa had a strike, and many products could not be delivered at home. "For the World Cup, many Chinese businessmen have customized a large number of products from China sports garment The transportation of flags, hats and gloves has been delayed. Container containers for many products are still transported by sea at this time. Once the container arrives in South Africa in a few days, it will inevitably face a bad sales situation. "At that time, there is no way but to reduce the price."

According to the reporter, many merchants in the Trade City have begun to consider reducing prices and returning to the capital as early as possible. For South Africa, the "weakest host in history", many Fujian merchants are a little angry. "I didn't expect, really didn't expect." During the interview, such voices were everywhere.
