From padlocks to suitcases, small appliances to power tools. The most concentrated hardware sourcing destination on Earth — here is how to navigate it.
District 2 opened in October 2004. It covers more than 600,000 square meters and holds over 8,000 stalls run by more than 10,000 businesses. This is where buyers come for hardware tools, padlocks, electrical products, small appliances, bags, luggage, and umbrella categories. The Chinese government awarded it a national AAAA tourism designation — evidence of how significant this single building is in global trade terms.

District 2 suppliers are more accommodating of mixed FCL container orders than most other markets. You can combine tools, padlocks, small appliances, and bags in a single full container load — ask your freight forwarder about packing list requirements for combined shipments.
For electrical products entering the EU or US: confirm your supplier holds current CE or FCC certificates — not just that they “can get” them. Ask for the actual test report with the certificate, and verify the report date. Certificates older than 3 years for modified products may not be valid.
We verify supplier factories, check production capacity, and run pre-shipment inspections. You receive a photo report before any container is sealed. Operating from Yiwu since 2004.
