Roma could not be built in one day, same as Yiwu Market.
Yiwu Market has grown out of nothing and expanded from small to large, from quality accumulation to qualitative leap.
Sugar-For-Chicken Feathers
Yiwu is a hilly region originally inhabited by farmers. Poverty-ridden land left peasants with no option but trade for a living. As early as the 1600s, trading flowered in Yiwu.
Being lack of money, farmers had to use something else to trade for what they wanted – chicken feathers.
Why chicken feathers? Because chicken feathers were a superb material to make fertilizer, and fertilizer could make their poor land grow more grains.
Furthermore, the good-looking feathers could also be made into feather dusters for exporting.
How did they get the feathers? They used the local product brown sugar exchange for chicken feather, which can be used as fertilizer. Good looking chicken feather can be made as feather duster that would for trading again.
Through do business around Yiwu people gain better life.
Definitely “Sugar-For-Chicken Feathers” influenced all business in Yiwu.
The Yiwu Businessmen Origin – Sugar Shoulder-Pole Men/Feather-for-Candy-Men
It was in the 1600s that Yiwu peasants during periods in which farming did not require substantial work, they traveled across villages, selling sewing needles, threads, candies and other small articles carrying in bamboo baskets, by a shoulder-pole. In order to attract customers, they used a rattle drum.
These men were called as “Sugar Shoulder-Pole Men”(SSM)/”Feather-for-Candy-Men” in some rural areas.
The first group of SSM came in 1600s. They were a group of solders under a famous general fighting back pirates, after winning the battle and pushed pirates back to sea. They went back home. These solders were more used to travelling like an army than staying on poor farmland as a peasant.
Soon, the SSM grew in number, the trading population grew larger, the earliest wholesale markets came into existence in Yiwu around 1700s to cater them.
It was only until 1949 that Planned Economy was set up there.
Planned Economy VS. Sugar-For-Chicken Feathers
As PRC is a communist country, no free trade was allowed. SSM were considered as being capitalism and was harshly pressed down.
But the mountainous Yiwu still remained unchanged, poor land still remained unchanged, people still remained starved, even it was already communist country.
People still needed food, so many of SSMs were still in this business secretly.
It was too risky for both SSMs and wholesalers. Each time they got caught up, all their goods and earnings would be confiscated, some were even put into prison.
This kind of dangerous cat-and-mouse game lasted for 33 years until April 1982.
Mrs. Feng Ai Qian & Mr. Xie Gao Hua
After her goods were confiscated again, Mrs. Feng Ai Qian, a young woman with 5 kids to support, went directly to the Yiwu Mayer, Mr. Xie Gao Hua’s office, and told him that she wanted to do business, other poor people also wanted to do business.
Why they could not do business? Why the governor didn’t care his people’s living?
After a short but intense argument, she slammed the door and went out!
This slam also slammed the mayor went into a-several-month investigation in Yiwu. After his investigation, he found that the secret wholesales were all in a better living condition than those peasants. So he made a brave decision: let the ball roll!
That was a brave decision, as he could easily lose his job or even be put into prison for supporting capitalism. But he did that, only for the wellbeing of his people.
Mr. Deng Xiao Ping (the former China President) was also considering free economy then.
First Yiwu Market – One of the First Free Marketplaces In PRC’s History
The local government put cement boards over a stink ditch nearby Huqingmen Street, and set up around 700 stalls on September 1982.
That was one of the first free marketplaces in PRC’s History. The first Yiwu Market (also wholesale market) was born!
Yiwu Market
After more than 30 years of development, went through several rebuilds, several extensions, several location changes…
Now Yiwu Market consists of 3 main market complex: Yiwu International Trade City/Yiwu Intl Trade Mart (Futian Market), Huangyuan Clothes Market, Yiwu International Raw Material & Production Equipment Market, and a dozen small specialized products market.
Total store fronts exceeds 80,000+. Yearly turnover exceeds 10 billion USD, became the world largest wholesale market for small commodities.

If you search for “yiwu market map”, you would probably find a map for all the markets in Yiwu, telling you where the timber market is, where the raw materials market is, where the home appliances market is…

Actually this is very misleading. I know for sure, in very rare cases, you’ll be interested in most of these markets.

For example, the home appliances market and digital products market outside of international trade city, they’re all mainly for local market. Timber market and raw material market, they’re ONLY for local factories.

So basically, you just need to find a map for the only main market in Yiwu – Yiwu international trade city. That’s enough. AND that map is coming below. You can easily download the full map at the bottom of this page.

Yiwu market map – Yiwu International trade city:

Most important of all, these hotels are all located within 10mins walking distance from Futian market, which make it very convenient for buyers. They don’t need to worry anything about traffic. They can even go back to hotel to have a rest whenever they want. Affordable rate also makes it easy for long-time-buyers who spend over 20days.

Yiwu futian market itself is very big. It takes up to one hour to walk from one end to the other end. So it becomes very important to choose the right hotel with right location.

If you simply check booking sites, all hotel tells you they’re within 10 mins walking distance to market. But it can take 10 minutes plus 40 mins when you want to buy curtains, but you stay in a hotel near district 1 of Futian market .

A good practice would be asking someone who knows Yiwu market and hotel locations before booking, or you can simply come for a look first, if you’re happy with their room and location, you can decide to stay. Most of these hotels don’t require booking in advance. But you’d better come before 2pm, or some of the popular ones may not have rooms for you.

You can use this map to figure out where Shanghai is, where Guangzhou is, where HK is, and where Yiwu is by simply zooming.

All the streets and roads names are in English now, so there are no difficulties for you to read this map.

Yiwu city is actually quite small, 4$ (25 Yuan)would be enough to go anywhere inside the city by taxi. Maybe you do not even need to read this map:-).
