Chinese New Year 2020: You should pay attention

2019- 12- 18

Chinese New Year, also called the Spring Festival, is the country’s most important holiday. Similar to Thanksgiving or Christmas in the US, people travel back home to spend time with their families.
The Chinese New Year of 2020 starts on Saturday, January 25th, 2020, which is earlier than most years, and officially lasts for 7 days. While many of us who work in Asia are painfully aware of the Chinese New Year, and the coming disruption to all production, many importers and Amazon sellers are caught completely off guard.

During this holiday, all factories are shut down, without exception.
While the official holiday only lasts for about a week, But, the majority of factories are fully closed for between two and four weeks.
Every supplier starts to wind down operations for one to two weeks in advance. Production is halted for a minimum of two weeks after the Chinese New Years' Eve. So Getting operations back to normal can take up to a month (or more)

DEBOT reminds you: As if the rush to get your shipments in time for Christmas was not enough, you now have to make sure that your goods are ready well before your supplier closes the shop for CNY 2020.
