On November 2, during Phase III of the 140th Canton Fair, the "Quality Dongguan" Luggage & Bag New Product Launch was held in Guangzhou. Hosted by the Dongguan Municipal Bureau of Commerce, the event put the latest products of Dongguan bag makers in front of buyers from around the world.

Dongguan is one of Chinas biggest luggage manufacturing hubs. More than 1,000 bag makers and suppliers are based in the city, forming a complete industry chain from design and R&D to manufacturing and branding. Their products are sold in over 100 countries. The industry is now moving up the value chain — from pure OEM production toward building its own brands.

Five local companies presented their new products on stage, each with a runway show:

• Guangdong Binhao Technology unveiled its "Harvest" pumpkin-series trolley case — lightweight, impact-resistant and inspired by nature.

• Summit Luggage, with 20+ years in travel cases, showed its electric rideable suitcase that doubles as storage. The company offers full ODM/OEM customization and holds multiple international certifications.

• Oufeiya Leather presented genuine-leather handbags and briefcases made from premium Italian leather, backed by a skilled production team.

• Southchina Group, a one-stop bag manufacturer with production bases in Dongguan, Jiangxi and Morocco, featured its outdoor mountaineering, cycling and business backpacks — all tested in its own in-house lab and trusted by well-known global brands.

• Gaoshan Electronic Technology showcased its DEEGOBAG brand, with 1,000+ SKUs and full service from free design and sampling to delivery. Several of its products are best-sellers on overseas e-commerce platforms.

Together they represent the range of Dongguans bag industry, from decades-old manufacturers to innovative newcomers, covering trolley cases, outdoor packs, leather goods and student backpacks.

The event drew real results. "Many buyers came straight to our booth after the show. Visitor traffic was clearly higher than in previous years," said a representative of Binhao Technology. After the launch, buyers headed to the companies booths for business talks.

The organizer hopes the event helps more overseas buyers discover what Dongguans bag industry can do — and invites global buyers, designers and brands to partner with Dongguan manufacturers and explore the international market together.
