However, the significant increase in global container transportation demand has also brought about problems of rising costs and tight capacity.
Investment prospects and challenges
Despite the broad prospects for market development, the container housing industry still faces some challenges, such as fluctuations in raw material costs, global capacity adjustments, and market competition. In addition, policy support is also an important factor in promoting industry development. For example, the government's support for mobile homes entering rural areas has provided new development opportunities for the industry.
