The business community works hard to discuss and assess the impact of manufacturing on the UK economy. Many UK companies would like to find ways to compete with China in order to keep manufacturing afloat here.

Now wages and costs are escalating in the UK and Chinese people are losing their advantage of cheap wages. UK should develop and achieve innovation in order to bring more benefits to this country and have a better international position.

Apart from the official store, there is a small shop that sells handmade scarfs and other unofficial souvenirs of Liverpool FC located in the Liverpool city centre. Most of the products are also made in China and there are all have high quality and inexpensive.

Now the relationship between China and Liverpool FC is getting closer and closer and made in China is a part of this situation.

In recent years, Liverpool is also working hard to expand the Chinese market and increase revenue for the team. There are some Chinese advertisements and Chinese service speakers in Anfield Stadium. The combination of Chinese elements and Liverpool is exciting and from the point of view of Liverpool, Chinese fans can bring more support and income.

China and Liverpool FC complement each other and develop together in today’s world. Liverpool can have more Chinese fans after they enter the Chinese market and also this situation will bring more chances for Chinese companies to make Liverpool FC products. Finally, “Made in China” will become a good quality and nice appearance label.

Steven Wang, a crazy Chinese Liverpool FC fans said: “I am glad to see my favourite team sell things that made in China and I think “made in China” will help Liverpool FC to develop better in the future.
