Resumption of Wholesale Market in Guangzhou City in Epidemic Period of 2020 COVID-19

Huimei International resumed opening on March 2. Kapok International Fashion City and Baima Costume Market are opened on March 1. And according to the current epidemic situation, Shahe Garment Market and Shisanhang Garment Market are expected to return to work in early March! We’ll keep on update.

Baima Costume Market resumed operation on March 1

On March 1, Guangzhou Baima Costume Market officially resumed, and operators and buyers from all over the nation entered the market in an orderly manner. On the first day of resumption, about 810 booths opened, with an opening rate of more than 80%. It is expected that the opening rate will reach more than 95% in about a week.

Reporters found that merchants and buyers need to show “Suikang code“, “Baima pass” and “recent action track” before entering the site, and then enter the site after a temperature check. In order to avoid personnel gathering, an operation guide board was set every 10 meters or so on-site. As reporters experience it on the spot, under the guidance of the staff, it only took 5 minutes to get the needed certificates and code. There are two entrance channels and one exit channel by now. And corresponding signs are affixed on the ground of the entrance channel every 1 meter or so, and the staff will guide the crowd in real-time.

There is also a data monitoring center set up in Baima Costume Market. When entering this small room, only a dozen monitoring screens have been installed on the wall to monitor the real-time flow of people in each store on each floor. And the big data platform on the computer, according to the information read by “Baima pass”, displays the real-time data of people and people from Hubei province in the field. “We urgently developed this big data platform, using the Internet technology to develop an electronic passport and a health big data platform, which real-time visual monitor of the number of detainees on the scene and timely warn the risk of excessive human flow.” Chen Baohong, general manager of Guangzhou Baima Costume Market, said that usually, the flow of people in the market is about 18,000. In contrast, in this particular epidemic period, the flow of people in the market is strictly controlled below 50%. When more than 9,000 people are in the market, the big data monitoring system will issue an early warning o the risk of excessive flow of people, and the market will start measures of no entering but leaving.
