China Int'l Import Expo

It wouldn’t occur to Peruvian craftsman Oswaldo Mamani that a chance encounter with Chinese tourist Ma Yuxia ten years ago would pave the way for his hand-sewn alpaca plush toys🦙to embark on a journey across the ocean to the CIIE 🤝. To participate in the first CIIE, Ma Yuxia and her Peruvian partner co-founded the brand Warmpaca. When the alpaca toys debuted on a 9-square-meter exhibition stand ✨, they instantly captured widespread attention, attracting a steady stream of clients and orders. Today, Warmpaca has opened four physical stores in Shanghai and one in Xiamen, with its clients across provinces and cities such as Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Harbin, Sanya, and Urumqi. Orders generated through the CIIE have helped over 200 families in Peru lift themselves out of poverty, and become prosperous🏡💪.
