Guangzhou Business Pulse
- Culture Pragmatic and trade-focused. Known for "Canton Fair" and a deep history in international commerce.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The 12-2 PM lunch window is very important; avoid calling then. Best times are 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM and 2:30 PM - 4:30 PM. While Cantonese is the local language, Mandarin is the business standard for non-locals. Pragmatism and efficiency are highly valued in this major trade hub.
Hamburg Business Pulse
- Culture Practical, reliable, and trade-focused. Values the "Hanseatic" tradition of integrity.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Reach out between 9:00 AM and 11:30 AM. Business culture is direct, efficient, and honest. Reliability is the most important trait. Respect the standard 9-5 work day strictly; calling after 6:00 PM is considered unprofessional and intrusive.
