GUANGZHOU, July 28 (Xinhua) -- With scorching temperatures gripping much of the northern hemisphere, demand for cooling appliances such as air conditioners, refrigerators, and fans has soared across Europe.
This surge is being felt thousands of miles away in Shunde District of Foshan City, south China's Guangdong Province, often dubbed the "home appliance capital of China." In the first half of this year alone, Shunde saw a significant rise in exports of home appliances, with an average of 600 containers packed with such appliances leaving the district each day.
