At the factory of Zhejiang Fengyun Toys Company based in Kaihua county, Quzhou, Zhejiang province, workers were busy loading balloons on May 19 that were destined for the Philippines.

Specializing in natural latex balloons, the company has expanded its reach to Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and South America, thanks to advanced production technology.

In 2024, Fengyun's exports totaled 25.7 million yuan ($3.57 million) and it saw robust export growth in the first quarter of 2025, achieving 7.2 million yuan in exports — soaring 37.91 percent year-on-year.

Last June, the company launched an automated production line capable of producing 2 billion balloons annually, reducing energy consumption by 50 percent and labor by 40 percent, while tripling production capacity. A third production line is currently under construction, with construction of a fourth beginning in August.

At the 137th Canton Fair, Fengyun displayed a newly developed balloon, securing a 7 million yuan order from Panama and sparking international interest. This new balloon offers a 40 percent higher value than standard ones, strengthening Fengyun's global presence.

To expand further, the company is actively participating in trade shows and it recently secured an order for 2 million promotional balloons in Indonesia. Fengyun is also establishing an overseas warehouse there to enhance its market reach through both e-commerce and on-site channels.
