The reason why such a large-scale hardware market (motor market analysis) was invested in Qingdao was that the person in charge said: “Since the past, Shangqingtian (Shanghai, Qingdao, and Tianjin) is China’s top three hardware manufacturing base. Qingdao found that Qingdao did not have a professional hardware trading market, but only a small, street-facing market that was not formed on a scale, such as the nearby Sifang Bus Station.These first-generation hardware markets were located in convenient and convenient bus stations and trains. Stations formed spontaneously around the site, while Shanghai and Tianjin had many professional large-scale hardware trading markets, so we had the idea of ​​building a professional hardware market in Qingdao. We chose this site because the Qingdao industry was to the north The transfer is surrounded by Qingdao High-tech Zone, Chengyang EMU town, advanced manufacturing companies, and advanced logistics and transportation industries. Our market is mainly engaged in industrial hardware and architectural hardware, and positioning is to radiate peripheral industrial enterprises."

Merchants, as individuals, are not easy to get from banks. The market directly connects with the banks, and the bank directly grants credit to our market, and the banks proceed to the merchants, which reduces the risk of the bank. Since the first phase of operation, there have been dozens of merchants that have received support.”
