The Importance of Chinese Brand Naming

29.04.2023

Having a Chinese brand name is crucial for businesses that aim to establish a presence in China or other Mandarin-speaking markets. While maintaining the original name may work in some countries, in China, having a Chinese brand name brings several critical benefits that can determine a company’s success or failure in the Chinese market. 

Positive Brand Impression
Each Chinese character carries a unique meaning. Using Chinese characters with positive connotations in a Chinese brand name can create a favorable impression on potential customers and generate interest in the brand.


🔎 Visibility in Search  
Chinese internet users prefer to use a Chinese brand name when searching for products, even for internationally known brands. Having a Chinese brand name can improve a business’s visibility and search engine ranking in China. 


 🗃️ Simplify Administrative Processes  
Registering a Chinese brand name can streamline other administrative processes such as setting up a bank account or opening a WeChat store, which require the use of Chinese characters.
