Custom Umbrella Service Introduction

Brief introduction of custom umbrella service offered by Hongjie, an original umbrella manufacturer in China

Originally, Hongjie started as a factory specializing in large offline umbrella orders. However, with the rise of the internet era, we noticed many customers seeking convenient small-batch online customization. This prompted us to launch our online business and reduce minimum order quantities.

Through years of operational refinement, we successfully lowered the minimum order to just 100 units – a result of streamlining our entire supply chain while maintaining strict quality standards. Most importantly, this achievement was realized without compromising product quality. The model has proven effective in helping numerous small businesses start with smaller investments, and we take great pride in this accomplishment.

We have a wide variety of Pantone-matched colors for you to choose from. Before the production of the official order, customers can determine whether the product meets their expectations based on samples and then approve the production of the bulk order.

In short, we accept both large-batch orders (from umbrella importers or distributors) and small-batch orders (from small businesses/independent brands).

Now, as our business of production orders (with the minimum order quantity of these umbrellas set at 100 units) keeps growing, our designers will assist customers in creating designs that meet their needs. Here are the umbrella designs we currently offer:
