For example, some countries may suddenly increase the import tariffs on heating equipment, leading to a sharp rise in import costs. At the same time, exchange rate fluctuations also bring uncertainty to trade. The fluctuation of the exchange rate between the Japanese yen and the RMB may affect the cost and profit of imported goods.
However, opportunities also exist. With the advancement of the "Belt and Road" initiative, trade cooperation with Russia and Southeast Asian countries has become closer. The trade facilitation measures between countries are constantly being strengthened, such as simplifying customs clearance procedures and improving trade transparency, which provides a better environment for the import business. Moreover, the global demand for energy-saving and environmentally friendly heating equipment is constantly growing.
