Top Sellers in USA
Since the second half of the year, the U.S. promotional products are mainly affected by inflation, back to work and back to school, Apple's new machine release, cheap daily necessities such as clothing/shoe organizers, office stationery, mobile phone peripherals are on the promotional list. North America cross-border sellers can do a good job of selecting products through the market research program to stimulate users to buy active.
Seasonal Storage
As we enter the fall and winter seasons, the demand for seasonal products increases. Especially due to the current inflation in the U.S., the demand for cheaper daily necessities such as clothing/shoe organizers has risen sharply. Consumers are mainly concerned about whether the products are reusable, cost-effective and space-saving. E-commerce entrepreneurs can put on the shelves more popular X-piece sets, compressed space-saving products, and convenient and easy-to-access shoe organizers.
Office Supplies
In the post-epidemic era, with the gradual rhythm of returning to work and school, the demand for office stationery-related items, such as label printers for office use, continues to grow steadily. Consumers (office workers and students) are concerned about style variety, ease of assembly, and environmental safety. Sellers need to do more micro-innovation on the function to make the product more diversified in style and more convenient in assembly.
Cell Phone Accessories & Peripherals
Every year in September ~ October Apple's new machine release, will lead to new demand for electronic parts products. These products have a short life cycle and need to seize the opportunity of each new product launch to do a good job of product iteration, and at the same time do a good job of inventory management and cost control of the old model.
Top Sellers in Europe
As energy supply is tight and prices continue to rise, demand for clean energy products is surging in Europe. Power storage and charging products and heating products have also become the dark horse products in the European market.
Clean Energy and Heating
Renewable energy supply products (solar panels, etc.), storage and charging products (storage batteries, mobile chargers, high-power outdoor chargers), and emergency heating products (lighting emergency lamps, home heaters, and grill lamps) will be very popular.
The upgrade also means that the smart home and technology category is set to explode in the fall and winter months! European consumers have long been attracted to these products, and this trend will continue to grow in the second half of the year.
Smart Home Technology
Smart home electronics, portable speakers, air purifiers, water purifiers, and multi-mode bath umbrellas will all be popular choices.
What's even more remarkable is that the major schools in Europe have entered the school season, and the peak of European festivals (Labor Day, Father's Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Christmas, etc.) that follow have unique and deep cultural backgrounds and emotional cores.
School supplies, 3C electronic products, mobile phone accessories and peripherals
These categories target different consumer groups, requiring sellers to focus on product iteration, cost control, promotional strategies and other aspects. Especially in the cell phone accessories category, competition is fierce and the product life cycle is short, which requires continuous investment to seize the opportunity of new product launches and good product iteration.
Top sellers in Japan
As the summer heat fades away, Japan is approaching the height of fall weather from September, which is also the peak season for outdoor activities for Japanese people. Fishing and golf are the two main categories that enjoy peak sales in the fall and second half of the year.
Fishing and Golfing Products
Products such as fishing tackle sets, fishing reels and rods, as well as golf laser rangefinders, golf clubs and golf pads will see a sales boom. Taiwan manufacturers can emphasize the stainless steel material, portability and high strength of fishing products, while golf products should focus on data accuracy, professionalism, comfort and texture.
