Hartford Creative Group operates digital marketing services businesses through three PRC-based subsidiaries. The company provides advertising placement and precision marketing services primarily for small and medium-sized enterprises, acting as an intermediary between advertisers and major Chinese social media platforms. Services span advertising content creation, campaign placement, and performance optimization. It is also in the early stages of a short-form video ("mini-drama") streaming venture, having launched an application called "YYYS" on Google Play and the Apple App Store in the U.S. in May–June 2026.
Hartford Creative Group was founded in 2008 and booked $2 million in revenue for the 12 months ended April 30, 2026. It plans to list on the Nasdaq under the symbol HFUS. WestPark Capital and American Trust Investment Services are the joint bookrunners on the deal.
