Chen Bingquan, secretary general of the Xiamen Bakery and Coffee Association, told reporters that the coffee industry has developed in the mainland for only more than 30 years, and Xiamen is the area where Taiwan's baking and coffee industry first entered the mainland. "Xiamen is mainly influenced by Taiwan. After Xiamen attracted Taiwan businessmen to enter with geographical advantages, desktop coffee became popular."

In Xiamen in the 1990s, dining and talking about business in cafes has become a business fashion, in which the unlimited supply of slightly sour lemonade is the most typical representative. After years of development, all kinds of cafes in Xiamen have sprung up in every corner. According to incomplete statistics, there are more than 1000 cafes in Xiamen Island. based on the area of Xiamen Island, there are nearly eight cafes per square kilometer.

"Coffee has become an indispensable fashion element in the life and office of Xiamen citizens." Chen Bingquan believes that coffee is an important fashion element in a city, and in the process of the development of the coffee industry, attention should be paid to the cross-border integration of coffee fashion and fashion design, space aesthetics, e-commerce, cultural creativity and brand planning. "this can improve the quality of life of citizens, so as to achieve the role of promoting brands."

In Chen Bingquan's view, cross-border integration is not subversion, but generation upgrading. "through cross-border cooperation among various industries, we can promote the faster and better development of Xiamen's fashion industry."
