Analysis of the Demand for Wood Photo Frames in European and American Markets
The photo frame industry has a long history. Before the plastic photo frame came out, the solid wood photo frame was the only product in the photo frame industry. Undoubtedly, plastic photo frames have taken away many wooden photo frame markets. However, with the progress of science and technology, photography technology has made great strides.
