Chinese entrepreneur Yuan Hui has one goal: to boost Sino-US business ties by developing a cross-border commercial cooperation network and establishing offices and warehousing facilities in the United States to provide localized support for Chinese businesses' overseas operations.
Well-versed in cross-border e-commerce and digital supply chains with over a decade of industry experience, Yuan has worked to develop a global-oriented apparel supply chain service system, supporting Chinese apparel businesses in participating in international trade.
"As global e-commerce continues to expand, the integration of cross-border e-commerce and digital supply chains has become an important driver of the apparel industry's international development," Yuan said.
He founded Shenzhen Happo Technology Co Ltd and Kakaclo Information Technology Co Ltd to launch apparel supply chain resource integration, cross-border e-commerce operations, and international business coordination.
Yuan noted that as cross-border trade is undergoing a transformation, the apparel industry faces multiple challenges, including rapidly changing market demands, the need for more responsive supply chains, and increasingly complex international logistics coordination.
Yuan affirmed that cross-border apparel trade is characterized by diverse product categories, rapidly evolving market demands, and complex order fulfillment processes. In response to industry challenges, Yuan has explored more flexible and efficient supply chain operating models.
His supply chain services extend to major United States retail chains, including Ross, TJ Maxx, and Burlington, as well as e-commerce platforms and commercial channels such as CommentSold, TikTok, and Temu, fostering closer connections between China's apparel industry resources and overseas market demand.
Meanwhile, Yuan has actively pursued localized business development in the US. By establishing offices and warehousing facilities, he has sought to strengthen overseas operational capabilities and logistics services, coordinating with logistics systems such as UPS and USPS to improve cross-border order fulfillment and supply chain efficiency.
"From domestic supply chain resource integration to overseas business expansion, these practices reflect the broader development trend of cross-border e-commerce enterprises seeking deeper localization and enhanced supply chain responsiveness in global markets," he said.
He noted that as traditional supply chain management approaches face challenges, the application of digital technologies offers new opportunities to improve information flows, enhance operational transparency, and optimize resource allocation.
"I have been exploring technology-driven approaches to improving coordination among different stages of the apparel industry chain," he said.
Among the relevant technological achievements is the patent titled "A Method, Apparatus, Electronic Device, and Storage Medium for Processing Apparel Information," for which Yuan is a named inventor.
These technological explorations are closely connected with Yuan's long-standing cross-border e-commerce activities, demonstrating his continued efforts to bridge commercial operations and technological innovation.
In addition, in expanding international business, Yuan has actively developed a commercial cooperation network spanning China and the US. His efforts have focused on connecting apparel supply chain resources with US retail markets, e-commerce platforms, and logistics service systems. Through cooperation with US retailers such as Ross, TJ Maxx, and Burlington, as well as commercial platforms including TikTok, Temu, and CommentSold, his businesses have continued to broaden their overseas market presence.
The establishment of offices and warehousing facilities in the United States has also provided a localized foundation for overseas business operations, logistics coordination, and customer services. Through integration with logistics service systems such as UPS and USPS, the businesses have further strengthened the connection between order processing and delivery operations.
It has been learned that from entrepreneurial initiatives to cross-border e-commerce development, and from apparel supply chain integration to digital technology applications, Yuan has gradually developed a business approach guided by international market demand, grounded in supply chain coordination, and supported by digital innovation.
Through these ongoing efforts, he aims to contribute to the international development of China's apparel industry and support continued innovation in the cross-border e-commerce sector.
