The day was set on the 11.11., because the 1 symbolizes a single. Young Chinese people organize parties and events on Singles' Day to make friends and fall in love. Singles Day' has been taking place since 1993 and was initiated by students.
On 11.11.2011 the Singles' Day of the century took place. Many shops advertised with offers and bargains. The day became more and more popular from year to year and so many companies use the chance to address young people with special advertising and generate higher sales.
