What Does Golden Week Before China National Day 2025 Mean for Global Supply Chains?
The Chinese Golden Week is a double-edged sword for global trade. While it’s a time of celebration, it also represents a significant annual disruption to manufacturing and shipping from China.
- Factory Shutdowns: Most manufacturing plants, including ours at SL Auto Parts, will close for the entire public holiday. Production lines stop, and workers travel to their hometowns.
- Logistical Delays: Ports, shipping companies, and freight forwarders operate with skeleton crews. This leads to congestion, longer processing times, and delays both before and after the official holiday dates.
- Surge in Demand: In the weeks leading up to the holiday, there is a massive surge in orders as companies worldwide rush to stock up. This can lead to longer lead times and potential shortages.
Failing to plan for this period can result in significant delays, disrupting your inventory and potentially halting your operations.
