This shows PingPong's value is more than just in payments, it is a global ecosystem of buyers and sellers. In September, we also led an industry summit in Vietnam with over 4,000 attendees to help businesses access global markets. Going forward, we will continue expanding our network to more countries and regions, offering valuable connections and fostering growth for merchants on our platform."

One of PingPong's clients is Thai buyer Sumin Tunpeiroh, who is also a representative at the event. He hopes to source new steel grinding machines for next year's sales, commenting, "PingPong built an excellent platform, allowing us to engage directly with top companies and discover the newest products."

PingPong will continue to facilitate trade connections during the second and third phases of the 136th Canton Fair, focusing on matching buyers from Thailand and South Korea with high-quality Chinese suppliers. And PingPong also invited top Vietnamese influencer ZhuZhu and leading Thai beauty blogger PeePee to livestream their exhibition experiences during the fair.
