Client Type: Lighting Retailer

Product: Paper Star Lampshades

Application: Decorative Lighting and Home Interior

Sizes: 55–75 cm

Initial Order: CNY 1,960

Potential Program: Approximately 3,000 Units

The Opportunity

Expanding an Existing Lighting Assortment

The customer was already selling lighting products and was looking for complementary items to expand its product selection.

Instead of introducing a completely new category, paper star lampshades provided an opportunity to add a decorative product that naturally matched the customer's existing lighting business.

The opportunity was not only about selling another decoration.

The lampshade could become an additional product category that helps retailers:

  • Increase assortment variety
  • Offer more decorative choices
  • Create seasonal lighting collections
  • Improve customer purchase value

For lighting retailers, complementary products can create additional sales opportunities without changing their existing business model.


Our Solution

Developing a Flexible Paper Lighting Program

PaperJazz supported the customer through product selection, specification confirmation and future expansion planning.


Product Compatibility Support

One important part of the project was clarifying the product application.

PaperJazz helped define the difference between:

  • Decorative paper lampshades
  • Complete lighting fixtures

This ensured the product positioning matched the retailer's existing lighting assortment.


Multiple Size Options

PaperJazz provided paper star lampshades in different sizes from approximately 55 cm to 75 cm.

Different dimensions allowed the customer to evaluate:

  • Display effects
  • Customer preferences
  • Product positioning
  • Future assortment combinations

Commercial Packaging Solution

The foldable paper structure provided advantages for retail businesses.

The product supports:

  • Compact storage
  • Lower transportation volume
  • Easier inventory management
  • Seasonal product stocking

This makes paper lampshades suitable for retailers managing decorative and seasonal collections.


Future Volume Planning

Based on the initial cooperation, PaperJazz discussed future purchasing potential with the customer.

The project was planned with scalability in mind, allowing the retailer to expand from initial testing toward larger commercial quantities.


The Result

From Product Testing to Category Expansion Opportunity

The initial order reached approximately CNY 1,960.

During communication, the customer indicated potential future demand of approximately 3,000 units, representing a larger product expansion opportunity.

This project demonstrates how paper lighting products can help existing lighting businesses create additional assortment value.
