Beekeepers suddenly found themselves with inventory they couldn't move, but Huang saw opportunity in the crisis. He decided it was time to emulate the cooperative ways of his honeybees and expand his distribution network by joining forces with fellow beekeepers. Huang and eight others formed Taiwan's first honey production and marketing group.
黃東明覺得這是一個契機，可以化危機為轉機，結合更多蜂農，效法蜜蜂的合作精神，共同打開產銷通路，於是他和另外 8 位蜂農組成了台灣第一個蜂蜜產銷班。
