During this year's Spring Festival holiday, which was from Feb 10 to 17, many enterprises in the Xiamen Free Trade Zone remained open.

In order to bolster foreign trade and meet the import and export needs of enterprises during this year's Spring Festival holiday, the Xiamen International Trade Single Window continued to operate as usual, providing its standard 24-hour services.

Xiamen Shenyue Customs Group, a large-scale customs clearance agency in Xiamen, continued to provide services for import and export enterprises during this year's Spring Festival holiday. 

According to statistics, from New Year's Eve to the sixth day of the Chinese New Year, the company declared a total of 364 shipments, with a total declared value of 1.62 billion yuan ($223 million).

The Xiamen Free Trade Zone administrative committee also visited the Sam's Club in Xiamen to conduct safety production and market supply inspections, ensuring the availability of goods and managing customer flow, thus creating a safe and comfortable shopping environment for customers.

Meanwhile, the Xiamen International Wine Exchange Platform saw a significant increase in wine consumption through a combine online and offline approach. 

Alcohol consumption during this year's Spring Festival holiday has been strong, with daily turnover peaking at 1 million yuan. Despite the logistics disruption caused by the holiday period, the enterprises have continued operations, striving to meet demand in Xiamen and surrounding areas.
