In recent years, the China Dieshiqiao International Home Textiles City in Sanxing town, Haimen district, Nantong, has attracted the increasing attention of global business professionals. This surge in interest can be attributed to its unique industrial edges.

Some set up international trade enterprises here, while some secure employment in foreign trade, serving as "ambassadors" of China's home textiles in the global markets.

An Azerbaijani named Yu Bo in Chinese registered a trading company in the town in 2023. The company specializes in the home textile business in Azerbaijan and other Central Asian countries and regions. Yu undertook this initiative after completing studies at Shanghai Donghua University.

Jason from Pakistan, a frequent visitor of Dieshiqiao International Home Textiles City, established an international trade company in Nantong nine years ago. Six years ago, he ventured into the home textiles trade, and as a result, his clientele has expanded globally.

Jason discussed his appreciation for introducing Dieshiqiao's products to an international audience, stating that this endeavor provides him with a significant sense of achievement.

Instead of launching a business, Daniel from the United States became an international business specialist at Dieshiqiao International Trade. With the assistance of Daniel and his colleagues, the company established its first overseas warehouse in Germany, which can deliver products to any European country within 72 hours.

As the largest and most comprehensive professional market for home textiles and bedding in the nation and even globally, Dieshiqiao International Home Textiles City is hailed as the "Frankfurt of China".

After more than 40 years of development, Sanxing town has cultivated a world-class home textile industry cluster with Dieshiqiao at its heart, boasting an annual production capacity surpassing 200 billion yuan ($28.15 billion).
