Chinese New Year Closures 2023

Melissa
on
December 15, 2022

The Chinese Spring Festival (aka Chinese New Year) is quickly approaching and will begin mid-January 2023. As you likely might already be aware, the impact this holiday has on the manufacturing industry can last several weeks.

‍

Here's what you can expect this year:

  • Our overseas suppliers expect to be closed from January 14 to January 29. However, our supplier has informed us that they may end up closing earlier than this due to COVID-19 closures.
  • Closures of our overseas suppliers will be accounted for in the quoting algorithm both in terms of available lead times and pricing.
  • Our lead time guarantee is suspended during this time.

‍

We know this is a stressful time for those trying to get things made. Here's what we recommend:

  • Don't wait to place your orders. We recommended placing time-sensitive orders by the first week of January at the latest. The earlier in advance you are able to place your order, the less likely it will be to experience delays.  It is common for delays to last up to a month or more after the official end of the holiday.
  • Notify us of time-sensitive orders ahead of time. Due to the increased pressure and demand put on our suppliers during this time, there is a chance that even if you put an order through the week before factory closures, it may be delayed until after the holiday.
  • If you are looking for a faster lead time during the holiday period than what our quoting algorithm is showing please get in touch. Our US board facilities remain open to help with all your quick turn needs, but also experience a surge in demand during this time.

‍

We apologize in advance for this inconvenience. If you have any questions on what to expect during these closures or how they may affect your orders, please don't hesitate to reach out.
