Who says ethnic products will always be unattractive? In fact, distinctive products with ethnic nuances can still attract customers, such as this one from Germany. Last Friday, June 24, 2022, he, his wife, and two children visited the Bengok Craft gallery in Tuntang, Semarang Regency. Unmitigated, he bought many of these ethnic crafts, ranging from Bengok Sling Bag, Bengok Pot, and Bengok Hampers Bag.
“We will bring these unique creations to our hometown in Deutschland and share them with our relatives“, he said.
Water hyacinth creations are indeed very suitable for souvenirs, especially Semarang Regency is well-known for Rawa Pening, which is filled with water hyacinth plants.
Water hyacinth creations are very suitable for souvenirs, especially since Semarang Regency is famous for its icon, namely the water hyacinth plant scattered around Rawa Pening. Instead of being a weed, this plant can be creatively processed into a valuable and useful craft.
Even though they seem ethnic, the crafts keep up with the current trends. The crafts, of course, adds to the attraction for potential customers, including this guy from Deutschland.
In addition, this craft is very eco-friendly. Thus it does not harm the environmental ecosystem.
Firman Setyaji, the owner of Bengok Craft, met at the gallery, said that he hopes that in the future, Bengok Craft can expand to Europe other than Italy, such as Deutschland. (06/24)
In addition, he added that the export opportunity for Bengok Craft is still huge considering that currently, home-decor products are one of the categories of handicraft products that are preferred throughout the world. As one of the businesses that produce home-decor crafts, Firman is certainly aware of this.
