Hardware faces high cost pressure

When the storm came, some fragile birds couldn't be attacked; but the petrels in Gorky's writing shouted: "Let the storm come even harder!" Similarly, the survival of the fittest is the law applicable to business. Some companies import the "flowing tide" flood, while the other part of the "sea swallows" are faced with cruel environmental brave growth, blood and tears, transformation and upgrading.

How should small and medium-sized hardware companies face the "storm":

(a) Build a brand. To say a thousand and 10,000, the brand is a long-term survival of the company's spinal cord, is a company's "calcium", the consequences of calcium-deficient business is to get "cartilage disease", how to stand up the backbone, the brand is the key. Can withstand the test of time, most of the remaining companies are brands, such as Zhang Xiaoquan knife, Yangjiang knife and scissors.

(b) Small and medium sized hardware companies will optimize their products, from winning by quantity to winning by quality. Many labor-intensive enterprises in China rely on OEMs to survive. A commodity only extracts a few bucks or even a few cents of its profits. The cost increases will not be able to make ends meet; there are still some companies who are trying hard to sell their goods so that they will bear the "dumping" lawsuit. It seems to be worth some losses. To embark on the ranks of high-end products, naturally increase profits and jump out of the "small profits but quick turnover" cycle.

(c) ** Open up new outlets. For example, Ningbo Fastener Industry Association and China Export Credit Insurance Corporation Ningbo Branch signed a cooperation agreement. This means that the fastener industry's exports will receive comprehensive and preferential support from the credit insurance policy. Or companies can develop together and help each other to use the 1+N model to follow the leading companies. As long as you think, persist, believe that you can overcome difficulties. Ningbo Nanluo Jiantong Fastener Co., Ltd., located in Hengxi Town, Yinzhou District, Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province, has successfully pledged the exclusive rights of the trademark with its own well-known trademark “JT”, and obtained 3.86 million yuan of credit from Luzhou Bank. Since the introduction of the Pledge Policy for Exclusive Rights in Trademarks in Zhejiang Province, the first case of success in the use of trademark intangible assets in the region was reported.

Small and medium-sized hardware enterprises in the small and medium-sized hardware enterprises face high pressures:

(a) The price of raw materials keeps rising. The year 2011 was a year of rising sound. Iron ore was rising all the way back to the international barometer. This puts pressure on the hardware industry downstream of the industrial chain. The vast majority of the hardware industry will involve iron ore; the price of oil is soaring. This is a great waste of energy for the high-energy-consuming hardware industry, and it also affects the hardware industry's logistics transportation to a certain extent; the rare earth price skyrocketing, causing serious losses to lighting companies, wind power equipment companies, etc. in the downstream of the industrial chain. Some companies have switched to "hoarding rare earth", which is comparable to gold treatment.

(b) Increase in labor costs. The hardware industry is mostly labor-intensive, which requires a large number of employees to “stand in” the industry chain to maintain normal operation. However, in this age of 80s, this group of young people who are “beloved” by their parents are mostly unwilling to engage in The pressure of heavy physical labor and adult survival costs has led to an increase in wages in the hardware industry. Even many companies are unable to retain the high-paying talents; in some hardware companies with advanced automation processes, they are also faced with the "labor shortage". Skilled technical workers, or technical talents, “Jian Jian Tianya” also need high wages to retain. This is a faint pain for hardware companies, especially small and medium-sized hardware companies.

(c) The continuous appreciation of the *** and the upward movement of the central bank's interest rate. *** Appreciation is also a hurdle for foreign trade-oriented SMEs. For small and medium-sized hardware companies, the increase in cost will have to increase the sales price, and the appreciation of *** against the U.S. dollar should only be based on an increase. Consider the exchange rate,

Small and medium-sized hardware companies use "life" to dance and struggle for their dreams. Only by turning the “knife tip” into two legs and bravely walking to the “prince of interests” can we become beautiful brides. Otherwise, in the end, it can only become a bubble disappearing in the ocean.
