In Yuyao, Ningbo, a group of enterprises have keenly seized the global trend of ice and snow sports, actively explored overseas markets through technological innovation and product upgrades, and brought "Made in China" sports products to the world.
According to statistics, in 2025, Ningbo Yuyao will export ice skates, ski suits, ski bags and other "ice and snow economy" related products worth 57.66 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 93.7%. Ningbo Feile Sports Goods Co., Ltd. specializes in producing sports goods such as roller skates and ice skates. Over 70% of the products are sold overseas, covering more than 100 countries and regions around the world.
Gong Wenbo, Manager of the Foreign Trade Department of Ningbo Feile Sports Goods Co., Ltd.: In recent years, there should be some growth in ice and snow products, mainly from colder countries such as Northern Europe and then Russia.
Ningbo Xueying Sports Equipment Technology Co., Ltd. started with OEM production of foreign brand ski gloves, and gradually launched its own brand of heated drying backpacks for ski boots through continuous increase in research and development investment, successfully seizing the new opportunities brought by diversified and personalized outdoor sports consumption.

While enterprises actively innovate and expand their markets, Yuyao Customs also provides efficient customs clearance services to safeguard their overseas expansion. By optimizing the customs clearance process and implementing personalized policy guidance, various difficulties in the export process can be effectively solved, helping enterprises to "go into battle with light equipment".
