BAAR, SWITZERLAND / AGILITYPR.NEWS / April 13, 2026 / SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company, is pleased to announce a complimentary webinar, “China Market Update and 2025 Spot-check Failure Analysis,” taking place on April 22 and 23, 2026.
China remains one of the world’s most dynamic consumer markets, but it also enforces some of the strictest product quality supervision systems. With authorities increasing inspections and new and updated GB standards coming into force, textile, apparel and footwear businesses face growing pressure to ensure product accuracy, proper labeling and full compliance with mandatory requirements.
SGS’s expert‑led webinar will provide a clear, practical overview of the latest developments shaping China’s softlines regulatory landscape. The session will examine the most common non‑compliance issues identified through 2025 market spot checks, outline core GB standard obligations and highlight key regulatory and standards updates that companies should prepare for. Presenters Sicy Chen and Debbie Hodgson will also share insights into typical failure patterns, challenges in global supply chains and tools available to reduce compliance risk.
Attendees will learn how SGS solutions can help brands, retailers and manufacturers meet China’s requirements, prevent costly market-entry delays and strengthen product credibility in this highly regulated market.
This webinar is ideal for softlines brands, retailers, manufacturers, quality professionals and compliance managers working with or targeting the Chinese market.
