Here are some fun Chinese New Year “dragon” greetings to share with your factories.

Our very talented cofounder Xiao Feng Wu is here sharing a video pronunciation guide.

With it being the New Year of the Dragon, have fun with these dragon-themed sayings.

➡️ Here are two good things to know:

(1) How to Share Your Greeting

It’s simple, take 1-2 wishes and send them to your factory, friends or family.

Note that the below Romanised (Pinyin), in brackets next to the characters, is just to help as a pronunciation guide. You can send only the Chinese characters themselves in the message.

Up for an even bigger challenge? Try sending your factory a voice memo via Wechat with your well wishes.

Overall, it’s a great practice to check in with your factory partners over this very important holiday.

Share your appreciation for your business relationship and wish everyone the best for the coming year!

They will surely welcome the well wishes.

Along with the greeting, you can, of course, add in your own message relating to your business cooperation over X years and send some wishes for a prosperous business together as partners going forward.

(2) When Is Best to Share the Greeting?

The best timing is anytime this week, up until Friday, February 9, before the New Year officially rings itself in on the 10th. If you’re late, then sending a greeting after this date is certainly better than nothing! 

So take a minute and send a greeting today!
