19. MarketHub Insight

Gloves are a high-repetition RFQ item that possesses characteristics of both fashion accessories and industrial safety equipment . Overseas buyers place importance on comfort, functionality, safety, durability, and the ability to meet seasonal delivery deadlines .

Domestic manufacturers can enter the global fashion brand, industrial safety distribution, and facility management markets by focusing on winter gloves, touch gloves, work gloves, and safety gloves. It is more effective to structure the RFQ strategy as a Winter Protection Package or Work Safety Glove Package rather than as individual items.
