Zhou Liu Fu Drives “Gold Fever”: Double 11 Sales Reached RMB287 million, Southeast Asia Expansion Marks Global Push
The Group’s e-commerce business demonstrated robust performance in the first ten months of this year, with revenue recording a year-on-year growth of 32%, net profit surging by 71%, and net profit margin exceeding 8% for the same period. Under China’s new gold tax policy, the Group’s Double 11 sales still showcased formidable strength, leaving no doubt about the Group’s brand influence, risk resilience, and profitability.
Since its establishment in 2004, Zhou Liu Fu has grown into a leading enterprise in China’s jewellery industry, operating 4,000 offline stores nationwide with a sales network covering the entire country. The Company listed on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong in June this year. Since listing, its share price performance has been highly impressive, having more than doubled from the offer price, with its current market capitalization surpassing HKD 20 billion, becoming a focal point of industry attention.
In the fiercely competitive and aging traditional domestic jewellery market, the Group has risen to prominence through its forward-thinking management philosophy and becoming a pioneer in the youth-oriented gold jewellery trend. Following its Hong Kong listing, the Group needs to maintain rapid growth and expansion, thus giving rise to three driving forces—the cooperative partnership model, e-commerce growth, and overseas expansion—jointly propelling operating revenue to new heights.
Double 11 Sales Reach New Heights with Online-Offline Dual-Track Development
The Group’s classic flagship brand “Zhou Liu Fu”, together with emerging sub-brands “CHAOJIN” and “FENS”, commands a massive customer base domestically, particularly among young female consumers. Through brand differentiation, diversified product strategies, market positioning advantages, a nationwide network of 4,000 offline franchise and self-operated stores, and growth in online e-commerce platforms, the Group possesses powerful brand influence domestically, leading the youth-oriented trend in domestic gold jewellery.
The Group recently introduced the launch of an innovative operational cooperation model – CHAOJIN cooperative partnership stores, establishing joint venture entities with high-quality franchisees through 51% to 49% equity participation. Under this partnership model, the Group’s online traffic and brand advantages complement franchisees’ offline localized operational strengths, while the management model similar to subsidiaries enhances decision-making and execution efficiency, laying the foundation for large-scale replication. Additionally, the Group’s 51% equity allows cooperative partnership store revenue to be consolidated into the Company’s financial statements, directly increasing revenue and enhancing the Group’s attractiveness in the capital market. This new model is expected to become a new profit growth engine for the Group, accelerating offline store expansion while driving per-store revenue growth and boosting overall Group performance.
On the other hand, Zhou Liu Fu’s online channels have experienced explosive growth. Through precision marketing and product innovation, the Group achieved substantial increases in online sales, injecting strong momentum into full-year performance growth while playing a significant role in customer acquisition and empowerment for offline cooperative partnership stores. The recently concluded Double 11 particularly showcased Zhou Liu Fu’s formidable brand strength with outstanding sales performance, successfully capitalizing on the golden opportunity of online consumption. Zhou Liu Fu’s strategic positioning of online-offline collaborative development has not only expanded brand influence but also opened up entirely new growth horizons for the Group.
“Going Global” Strategy Advances Steadily with Exponential Performance Growth on Horizon
Overseas markets represent another key focus area for Zhou Liu Fu post-listing. The Hong Kong and Macau markets serve as bridgeheads for the Group’s international strategic expansion, with plans to open 10 offline stores in 2025, expanding to approximately 20 stores in 2026. The Group is simultaneously establishing stores across Southeast Asian regions including Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, and Malaysia, with plans to enter Singapore, Australia, and New Zealand markets next. Overseas stores will adopt the successful domestic “franchise and cooperative partnership” model to rapidly penetrate international markets, with plans to expand to over 200 physical stores in the next three years.

Adhering to Canon’s corporate philosophy “Kyosei”, Canon Hong Kong has spared no effort to promote environmental conservation and sustainable development, injecting green elements into different kinds of corporate activities. Since the launch of “Ink Cartridge Recycling Program” in 2009, Canon Hong Kong has invited the beloved local cartoon character, McDull, to serve as the program ambassador. With the ambition of cultivating the environmental awareness of the next generation, the program was extended to the education sector in 2011, calling on support from primary and secondary schools in the annual competition. Now in its 15th year, the program has reached an important milestone and received overwhelming responses from more than 300 organizations, housing estates, shopping malls, supermarkets and schools, all helping to set up recycling boxes to encourage the public to recycle used inkjet printer cartridges of all brands. To deepen students’ understanding and engagement with environmental issues, Canon Hong Kong has organized over 230 environmental seminars for participating schools, reaching over 70,000 students with messages about recycling and sustainable development. As of June 2026, over 295,000 ink cartridges were collected. Recycled ink cartridges were dismantled, while the metals and plastics were being recycled into raw materials for other products.
In the welcome speech at the ceremony, Ms. Candy Mau, Director of Corporate Communications and General Administration Division of Canon Hong Kong, affirmed the winning schools for their exemplar dedication in promoting recycling. A total of 8 schools were recognized in the category of “Highest No. of Recycled Ink Cartridges”. Ms. Mau noted that the escalating threat of global warming and climate change has sounded an alarm for the Earth, reminding us of the need to protect the environment together. She emphasized the importance of promoting environmental protection to the young generation from an early age and urged schools to build a better and sustainable society together by continuously promoting environmental education.
After the ceremony, Canon Hong Kong arranged a “Build Your Own Camera” STEAM parent-child workshop for the students and parents. The activity allowed them to assemble and build their own handcraft camera models, thereby learning basic optical principles. Through interactive demonstrations and disassembling camera structures, participants gained a deeper understanding of the science behind imaging while enjoying the joy of creativity, technology and photography. The workshop added a memorable learning experience to the ceremony and brought the event to a successful close.

Ancient Port, New Voyages: Ningbo’s Smart Manufacturing Expands Global Trade Footprint via Maritime Silk Road
Separated by thousands of miles, the two millennia-old port cities reconnected, leveraging their ports as a bond and cultural exchanges as a cohesive force to hold in-depth talks on integrated port-city development and bilateral economic and trade connectivity.
This cross-Indian Ocean dialogue echoes the ancient Maritime Silk Road while charting a brand-new outbound development path. As a pivotal starting port of the ancient Maritime Silk Road, Ningbo is building a new global trade landscape powered by smart manufacturing.
A thousand years ago, merchant vessels from Mingzhou Port set sail southward loaded with Yue Kiln celadon porcelain, passing through Ceylon to deliver Oriental crafts across the Indian Ocean coasts. Precious gemstones and spices traveled the same sea route back to regions south of the Yangtze River, laying the groundwork for the earliest cultural exchange between the two ports through trade. Today, the cargo carried by giant cargo ships has undergone a dramatic transformation. Beyond traditional daily necessities, intelligent equipment, digital home appliances and industrial robots now dominate shipments.
Official statistics show that Ningbo’s exports of intelligent equipment, including mechanical arms and industrial robots, hit 440 million yuan in 2025, surging more than 40% year-on-year. From January to May this year, Ningbo’s exports of mechanical and electrical products maintained steady growth, reaching 247 billion yuan, a 4.1% year-on-year increase and accounting for 58.0% of the city’s total export volume. The new energy foreign trade sector saw explosive growth, with exports of new energy vehicles, lithium batteries, and photovoltaic products jumping 138.4% year-on-year, with electric vehicle exports skyrocketing 215.9%. Smart manufactured goods are continuously expanding the scope of Ningbo’s foreign trade.
Complementing the Colombo forum, an exhibition highlights Ningbo’s outstanding going-global enterprises and their products, vividly illustrating the profound shift in Ningbo’s trade structure.
Alongside time-honored Maritime Silk Road staples such as celadon porcelain and silk, Ningbo’s smart manufactured products—including AI translation glasses, intelligent outdoor gear and digital small home appliances—occupy prominent display spaces across the venue. In Sri Lanka, Ningbo smart water meters are widely adopted nationwide, while handheld cooling fans and intelligent kitchen appliances have entered ordinary households.
Leveraging Colombo Port’s transshipment advantages, massive volumes of Ningbo smart manufactured goods are distributed onward to Europe, the Middle East and beyond. What Ningbo exports today is no longer mere commodities, but a complete outbound solution integrating technology, brand value and after-sales services.
Faced with mounting challenges including homogeneous global market competition and rising trade barriers, Ningbo’s manufacturing sector has abandoned the old model of low-cost OEM production, relying on intelligent transformation to consolidate its competitive edge in overseas markets.
Over more than a decade of digital transformation efforts, Ningbo has achieved full digital upgrading of all industrial enterprises above designated size. A large number of local factories have built unmanned black-light workshops and flexible production lines, escaping vicious price competition through continuous technological iteration. Represented by five specialized, sophisticated, distinctive and innovative enterprises dubbed Ningbo’s “Five Little Tigers”—famous for their core proprietary technologies, including highly sophisticated visual inspection equipment, heat-resistant materials, sun-proof coatings, puncture-proof materials and self-drilling fasteners—these niche manufacturers have developed differentiated technical routes and full-spectrum production capacity, cementing irreplaceable competitiveness for Ningbo smart manufacturing on global markets.
Beyond trade expansion, Ningbo has built a supporting cultural communication system to ensure “products go global, accompanied by local culture”.
The launch of Sri Lanka’s first “One-Meter Cultural Space” cultural station during the Colombo event marks a tangible milestone of Ningbo’s go-global initiative. Built on enterprises’ overseas outlets, these miniature cultural exhibition halls integrate intangible cultural heritage crafts, urban stories and smart products, enabling overseas clients to experience cutting-edge manufacturing while gaining insight into Ningbo’s profound cultural heritage.
During the twin-city story-sharing session, Ningbo entrepreneurs based in Sri Lanka and local designers blending Chinese and Sri Lankan aesthetics shared stories of bilateral exchanges. Economic and trade ties have evolved into a bond for people-to-people communication, bridging divides in cross-cultural trade.
From Tang-dynasty celadon porcelain sailing across the Indian Ocean to intelligent equipment shipping to every corner of the globe, Ningbo, the ancient Maritime Silk Road port, has preserved its enduring gene of openness. Where exchanges once relied purely on commodity trade, today smart manufacturing underpins a stable, diversified and high-value-added global trade network.
The Ningbo-Colombo dialogue stands as a vivid microcosm of this transformation: the port still links lands and seas, yet the core of its trade has undergone a full intelligent upgrade.
Rooted in its historical legacy as a key Maritime Silk Road hub, Ningbo has consolidated its industrial foundation through a decade of digital development, expanded global market reach via worldwide port networks, and softened trade cooperation through cultural exchanges. This brand-new outbound shipping route forged by smart manufacturing has not only reshaped the city’s foreign trade landscape, but also delivered a replicable port-city development model for Chinese manufacturing to go global.
