From Local Leaves to Global Markets: A Chinese Village's Handmade Fan Industry Generates Millions

Deep News07-14 21:30

In the Jinyinzui Village of Yangjia Town, Dongxing District, Neijiang City, Sichuan Province, a cooperative dedicated to growing and processing Livistona palms is a hive of activity.

Villagers are capitalizing on the fine weather to dry palm leaves and craft them into traditional hand fans, with the village's annual output exceeding five million fans.

These products are sold far beyond China's borders, reaching markets in Southeast Asia and Europe.

The photo shows the diverse range of fan styles displayed on a sample rack in Jinyinzui Village.

A villager is seen spreading out palm leaves to dry in an open area.

An assortment of finished fans is neatly arranged on a table.

A worker places prepared palm hearts onto a drying rack.

A craftsperson carefully cuts fan shapes from the prepared material.

Another villager inspects the surface of a palm leaf after it has been dried.

The edge of a fan is being finished using a sewing machine.

Stacks of dried palm leaves are piled high, ready for the next stage of production.

The fan-making industry here is largely a family-run, manual operation, with children often helping out with simple tasks during their summer holidays.
