In recent years, as China's reform and opening, middle-class to a sharp increase in the number, quality of life for people with a different view. In the face of increasing market cabinets, wardrobes, wardrobe brand abroad well-known cabinets and domestic brand competition also intensified. Faced with international kitchen brand "invade" the way enterprises domestic wardrobe and where?
After nearly two years of development, China's Cabinet, wardrobe industry has increasingly mature and the consumer market. With the 2010 Shanghai World Expo in the hearts of the people, more like a cardiotonic into my closet, wardrobe, industry reshuffle speed goes up.
2010 Shanghai World Expo this golden good, home-made wardrobes brand has a unique opportunity to show to the world. At the same time, foreign well-known enterprises in wardrobes optimistic about China's market, you have been seeking to enter or expand China market size. Some of the more international card is to find a wardrobe for the right time, hopefully in the next few years to build factories, the localization process.
In the face of mounting a wardrobe market, domestic and foreign famous brand and our region's competitive local brands also intensified. In the face of international brand "invade" wardrobe enterprises have made wardrobe and cupboard "relax" when the time came, of course, with wardrobe and cupboard "unbundling", cabinets and wardrobes enterprise and what impact will occur? local wardrobe Enterprise road and where?
Import wardrobe and wardrobes are shrinking price advantage
Previous import wardrobe has been very difficult to get rid of the "applause" did not "embarrassing situation, the main reason for this is the price point is high, it is difficult to be accepted by consumers. However, in recent years, as China's reform and opening, middle-class rapid increase in the number, the high-end consumer groups gradually emerging, import wardrobe market expanding.
It is understood that, recently, the Renminbi exchange rate of growth has led the import tariffs, to a certain extent, to massive foreign wardrobe brand "invasion". Coupled with the continued growth of our prices, labor costs increase, as well as the related raw material price increase, to my wardrobe enterprises brought considerable pressure, some of which had a slight elevation in price, in order to adapt to market changes.
In contrast, domestic wardrobe price advantages gradually weakened, foreign brands price advantages to a certain extent.
Wardrobe and cupboard "unbundling" it will take time
Although the wardrobe and cupboard "unbundling" appears to be inevitable, but in the current low-carbon economy stimulated, GRAP international wardrobe Enterprise Monitor, wardrobe and cupboard "unbundling" also it will take time.
The main reason for this is that the cabinets brand has a long history, the market is stable, has formed its own set of operating mode with successful sales channels, and relax after the wardrobe needs adaptation period longer, more frontloaded, as things stand, the investment cost is not optimistic. Further, although China has a considerable part of the middle and even senior consumer groups, but the overall concept of the wardrobe consumers are not mature enough.

3. for the brand, establish national characteristics. If some big brands have established research and Development Department, and continuously improve the scale and enhance their competitiveness.
4. increase investment in research and development personnel in core technology, the pursuit of its own brand features. Apply for a patent, the protection sought policy.
