Johnnie Westgaard, a buyer from Denmark, highly recognized the strength of Shantou’s toy industry. “I have been to Shantou many times, about three times a year, to see the production process and equipment of factories. At the same time, Shantou also has toy showrooms, displaying samples from many factories, where you can choose and find the products you want. This is very convenient.”
