Yearly increase of 400 merchants! AI technology ignites the fashion vitality of Yiwu small accessories.

Recently, the 2026 Yiwu International Fashion Jewelry Factory Expo opened at the Yiwu International Expo Center. This exhibition not only showcased how AI technology is changing the traditional design process, but also reflected the transformation of the Chinese jewelry industry from "following" to "leading." Behind the bustling exhibition and the emergence of new products is Yiwu's mature and massive jewelry industry system. The complete industrial support system has accelerated industrial agglomeration, attracting merchants from all over the country to settle in Yiwu and open stores to receive orders. Data shows that about 400 new jewelry merchants are added to the Yiwu market each year, and the industry has formed a complete closed loop from accessory research and development, finished product design to exhibition and trade.
