01Hangzhou context
Why a design-led brand needs a design-led site abroad.
Hangzhou is a digital and consumer-brand city — DTC labels, creative studios, and heritage exporters in tea and silk. These businesses live or die on brand perception, and abroad that perception is the website, not the showroom.
A customer in Melbourne or a stockist in Milan forms an opinion in the first three seconds. A site that's slow from outside the mainland or visibly templated undoes years of product and brand work before they read a word.
We build the brand home a Hangzhou business deserves overseas: design-led, quick from anywhere, bilingual, and ready to sell direct when you add the e-commerce module.
02Hangzhou businesses we typically build for
Three Hangzhou patterns we see often.
Digital & creative
Studios and agencies with foreign clients
Creative and digital firms pitching abroad. A portfolio site that proves the craft instead of describing it.
Heritage exporters
Tea, silk, and heritage goods
Makers exporting craft products. A site that carries the story and provenance a foreign buyer pays a premium for.

04Hangzhou questions
What Hangzhou owners tend to ask.
- Do we need an ICP filing or mainland hosting?
- No — an overseas-facing site on a global edge network needs no ICP filing, and that's also why it stays fast for customers abroad.
- Can we sell direct to overseas customers?
- Yes — the e-commerce add-on adds a storefront with Stripe/PayPal so overseas customers buy from your own brand site rather than a domestic platform.
- Which languages does the site ship in?
- Starter is English; Growth adds Simplified Chinese; Studio adds up to three more for brands selling into several markets.
- Can you talk it through first?
- Yes. Sign up entirely online, or message us and we'll walk through it — no mandatory sales call either way.
