Shenzhen
Shenzhen is China’s leading technology and advanced manufacturing hub, located in Guangdong Province at the heart of the Pearl River Delta. The city specializes in high-value, fast-iteration manufacturing rather than low-cost mass production, with strengths in electronics, consumer hardware, telecommunications, EVs, medical devices, and precision components. Shenzhen is home to some of China’s most influential global brands, including Huawei, DJI, BYD, Tencent (hardware ecosystem), ZTE, and Mindray, alongside deep supplier networks serving Apple, Xiaomi, Oppo, and Vivo supply chains. The city is globally recognized for electronics design, rapid prototyping, PCB manufacturing, and small-to-mid scale OEM and ODM production. In addition to electronics, Shenzhen supports plastics, molds, packaging, sensors, batteries, and smart-device components, with factories capable of fast turnaround and customization. Its proximity to Yantian and Shekou ports, as well as Hong Kong logistics infrastructure, enables efficient global exports. Shenzhen is best suited for buyers sourcing electronics, smart hardware, EV-related products, medical devices, and innovation-driven OEM manufacturing where speed, engineering capability, and supply-chain integration are more important than lowest-cost production.
