More than 60 overseas buyers from Germany, Poland, Russia, Pakistan, Colombia and other countries gathered at the Yiwu International Artificial Flower and Accessories Market for the 2026 golden-autumn procurement fair, where 19 key merchants presented new products. An Afghan buyer who exports about 400 containers of artificial flowers a year to Dubai, Saudi Arabia and Afghanistan said the craftsmanship on display was so refined he initially mistook the artificial roses for real ones.
The market is China's first professional market dedicated to artificial flowers and floral accessories, with 60,000 square meters of operating space and more than 650 businesses. It carries over 50,000 product varieties ranging from floral accessories and artificial flowers to artificial plants and fruits, serving jewelry processing, home decoration, weddings, hotels and shopping malls. Its export orientation exceeds 60 percent, with products sold to Europe, the United States, Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Africa.
Merchants said the centralized fair format let them exchange WeChat contacts, samples and quotations with dozens of foreign buyers in a single day — far more efficient than waiting for walk-in customers.
