In the hardware industry, Wenzhou's locks, sanitary ware, molds and fasteners are well-known both at home and abroad, Wenzhou Hardware has formed an industrial cluster, achieving a 'quality' leap. The vast majority of companies in the Wenzhou hardware and sanitary ware industry are concentrated in the Haicheng area of ​​Longwan District. The hardware and sanitary ware are the traditional industries of Longwan Haicheng. The Wenzhou hardware and sanitary wares industry rose in the 70s of the last century, when nearly every household in Haicheng was engaged in the production, processing and sales of sanitary ware. This is the earliest home-plant-style sanitary ware company. Afterwards, Sanitary Ware companies in Haicheng spring up like mushrooms. Large enterprises bring small businesses and small businesses to bring home workshops. After more than 30 years of development, almost every household in Haicheng is doing business with hardware and cleanliness. Haicheng Hardware & Sanitary Ware Co., Ltd. has developed from the initial family workshop production to the current corporatization and grouping large-scale production and operation pattern, and has maintained a good development trend. In 2004, Longwan Haicheng was named 'The Capital of China's Hardware Sanitary Ware'. The production volume and sales volume of Longwan District Sanitary Ware Industry accounted for 55% and 52% of the total production base of all hardware wares in China, and the product group ranks first in the country. A large number of sanitary ware manufacturers settled in Haicheng, making the overall scale and agglomeration effects of the sanitary ware industry increasingly apparent, and the division of labor in the industry has continued to refine. At present, Longwan Hardware Sanitary Ware Industry has formed the nation's leading marketing market, and the advantages of industrial clusters have further manifested itself.
Disadvantages of the industry highlights that companies have been struggling with the rapid development of the hardware and sanitary ware industry in Longwan District, Wenzhou City, while the problems in the industry have also become increasingly apparent. The small, scattered and chaotic phenomenon of enterprises, the backwardness of production equipment and casting technology, and the infringement of trademarks for foreign companies often caused problems such as trademark infringement, which severely restricted the further development of the hardware and sanitary ware industry in Longwan District. The author learned from a long period of contact with Wenzhou's numerous hardware and sanitary ware companies that most companies are suffering from the “sequelae†left behind by the international financial crisis, the European debt crisis, and 'temperature run', and their symptoms are gradually appear. Since last year, with the increase in the price of raw materials and the continuous expansion of the consumer market, the market competition in the hardware and sanitary ware industry has become more intense and the industry's drawbacks have become more prominent. High-middle and low-end products are uneven, product expansion is irrelevant, and segmentation advantages are neglected. This is the three major drawbacks currently existing in the Wenzhou bathroom hardware industry.
First, the level of brand positioning varies. The current widespread phenomenon in the domestic sanitary hardware industry is that a company often launches brands with multiple grades, such as high school, low school, etc., but it does not have confidence, patience and ability to do them well.
In view of the current status quo, experts have called for: The domestic bathroom hardware companies have come to the time of 'reluctantly cutting', and there can be no hope of relying on the number of 'siege' to win the psychological. It is understood that Wrigley and other domestic first-line brands have begun to establish a scientific, accurate, and specific brand strategic planning and positioning, is committed to creating unique products and strong brands that not only meet the needs of the domestic market, can enter the international market. Insiders pointed out that the bathroom hardware companies must be firmly and uniformly implemented, and this brand is a strong brand in the industry, able to compete with other international brands and compete.
Second, the product expansion is too rampant Currently many domestic bathroom hardware companies generally have a 'great demand for all' market expansion trends, the main reason for this trend is the first bathroom hardware business owners and employees, especially marketing staff, both advocated and conducted Expansion; Second, although professional managers do not agree that the product variety is overdone, but the person in charge thinks it necessary, and the company is the boss has the final say; Third, a company often has 2 to 3 brands, many companies implement each brand Managed by different professional managers, brand competition within the company also caused the internal product variety expansion.
Third, the market segmentation advantage is ignored At present, China's bathroom hardware companies and brands, especially a large number of small and medium-sized sanitary hardware companies and brands, in order to gain a foothold in the market, only select one of the most promising roads, Give full play to its own advantages, go on a one-on-one basis, deepen and professionalize it, and let it go. This 'width' is to broaden the length of 'a road', subdivide it in form, subdivide it in terms of specifications, and at the same time carry out innovative designs based on customer's habits and aesthetic requirements, in terms of technology, material, shape, and process , Services, etc. have been comprehensively upgraded and the 'small market' has been specially designed for wide revision.
In the current situation, despite the serious decline in the profits of sanitary hardware companies, professional products will still be the company's goal. Businesses can't be "hands and feet" on products because of falling profits. Otherwise, they will lead to narrower and narrower corporate development paths. Product exports have always been a good thing. However, since this year, the chairman of Haiba Sanitary Ware, Qiu Jianchun, general manager of Texaco Sanitary Ware Chen Sijun, and Aolong Sanitary Ware Co., Zhang Tianyou have been worried about this issue - the economic downturn in Europe and the United States, the instability of international trade, and the export orders of these enterprises. Significantly reduced; the long-standing 'price war' in Wenzhou's hardware and sanitary ware industry has seriously affected its reputation.
Under the circumstance of unstable international trade, Wenzhou's product export inspection has encountered many difficulties. Even more frightening is that Wenzhou Sanitary Ware products are likely to encounter trade barriers in the international market. A large proportion of Wenzhou hardware and sanitary ware companies are family-run enterprises. These small enterprises generally rent private houses for production and win a little market by playing 'price war'. However, with the rectification of illegal buildings in urban areas in Wenzhou last year, more and more houses have been demolished. Many small businesses that previously rented residential buildings did not have production sites, and some small businesses were forced to close their doors.
Strong combination of industry structure or will 'big reshuffle'
In the investigation, the author discovered that most of the nearly 100 small-scale hardware and sanitary ware companies that have “disappeared†in Wenzhou since last year have been integrated into larger enterprises. 'Big fish eats small fish' and 'Fast fish eats slow fish' is also in line with the industry competition rules for survival of the fittest. In fact, from the beginning of last year to the present, China's bathroom hardware companies continue to attract people's attention. Overseas listings, joint exhibitions, strong alliances and other news emerge in an endless stream. This shows that the branding of the bathroom hardware industry has been carried out with great fanfare. It can be predicted that China's sanitary hardware industry will enter the oligarchic era in the next decade, and a group of leading enterprises will occupy a larger market share in the industry and become a well-deserved leader in the industry.
The cooperation between domestic companies and foreign well-known brands, cooperation between manufacturers and stores, strategic cooperation between enterprises and media, cross-industry cooperation, etc., regardless of the form of alliance, the ultimate goal is to develop a broader market. The alliance between the strong and the strong will become more and more common.
Take the old road only a dead end, Wenzhou's bathroom hardware industry must come out a new path! The owner of a sanitary ware company in Wenzhou said that companies should integrate industrial resources and achieve industrial transformation and upgrading under the guidance and support of the government and industry associations. He emphasized that Wenzhou's hardware and sanitary ware companies have come to a time of 'reluctantly cutting' and can no longer rely on quantity and low price to 'siege' to win the psychological, and should unite, strong alliances, Baotuan combat!
