AI and digitalization drive sportswear production in Fujian
Automation, artificial intelligence and 5G technology have been widely used in sportswear making in Jinjiang in East China's Quanzhou city, Fujian province, to increase production capacity and market competitiveness.
Kelme Sports Products Co, Ltd (China), an industry pioneer, has accelerated its technological renovation in recent years. According to Ke Yongxiang, president of Kelme (China), through digital transformation, the company's operating costs have dropped by 15 percent and operational efficiency has improved by nearly 20 percent.
