This silently agreed-upon arrangement, though informal, has proven to be highly pragmatic. It is this very model that provides female business owners with extensive space for career advancement and growth.
According to the latest statistics from Yiwugo.com, female merchants make up approximately 53% of the workforce in the Yiwu market. These "female bosses" continue to play an indispensable role in the market, serving as a driving force behind the ongoing growth and development of Yiwugo.com.

Up to now, this selection event has been held for nine consecutive years, identifying numerous outstanding female merchants. Through this initiative, they, along with their businesses and products, have garnered visibility and recognition among a broader audience. These female entrepreneurs stand as exemplary models of female innovation and entrepreneurship in the Yiwu market. Embracing opportunities for development, they stay grounded in their profession, nurture their primary ventures, explore and broaden their horizons, and represent the spirit of women in today’s entrepreneurial landscape.
"In the era of the digital economy, Yiwugo.com will continue to play a leading and driving role as a platform.
