With a population of 1.3 billion there is a huge business opportunity in China both in terms of potential clients and also suppliers. Cantonese is among the top 20 most spoken languages in the world, with 70% of the population speaking the language. The greatest concentration of Cantonese speakers are located in southeast China, mainly in the populous Guangdong province, parts of Guangxi province, the island of Hainan, Hong Kong, and Macau. Other southeast Asian countries such as Malaysia, Singapore, and Vietnam also have a significant number of speakers.
There is at least some economic benefit to learning or translating your materials into Cantonese, especially if you wish to do business with one of the many companies in the industrious Guangdong province. Although many speak Mandarin as a second language, most native Cantonese speakers prefer speaking Cantonese.
Forecasted to continue its super fast growth and become a serious player on the world stage, this is an large audience of consumers ignored by many Western-based companies and industries as a result of the language barrier.
Besides the written word you will enhance the likelihood of business success by embracing the language and culture of Cina.
