With less than 30 days remaining until the commencement of the Paris Olympics, a wave of merchandise, including 1 million Paris Olympics official wristbands and 100,000 fan jerseys, which were produced by Wenzhou businesses in East China's Zhejiang province, has been shipped to Paris.

Since the end of last year, Yiwu Huyue Crafts Co Ltd has been operating at full capacity to fulfill a massive order of 1 million Paris Olympics official wristbands. After four months of effort, the order was completed and the wristbands were dispatched to Paris in two shipments, ensuring they hit the market before the opening of the Paris Olympics.

The Paris Olympics official wristbands are crafted from silicone material and available in four colors - white, blue, red, and yellow, with the front side intricately engraved with the words "PARiS 2024" using a technique that ensures durability against wear and tear.

Yiwu Danas Import and Export Co Ltd is creating fan jerseys for the event. "This year, for the Paris Olympics, we have specially designed fan jerseys with a French flair. One batch of fan jerseys has already been shipped to France and are awaiting their grand debut at the Paris Olympics venues," said Wen Congjian, the company's chairman.

The combined revenues from the UEFA EURO 2024 and the Paris Olympics have seen a growth of approximately 30 percent this year, Wen said.
