Prices rose brand will not risk confrontation

On the Chengdu, although the prices of raw materials in various degrees of rise, the furniture industry's rigid cost has increased, but the whole industry is very stable, it should be said that 2008 will not furniture prices rose.

On the one hand, the furniture industry as the "troika" of one of Chengdu's furniture industry has been dominated two, three markets, products mainly domestic, on this basis, export tax rebates fluctuations of the business impact will not be great.

On the other hand, the now-birth of a lot of strength of strong furniture brands, like all the Friends of furniture, Zhangshangmingzhu enterprises, and other brand products, has been launched to seize a share of the market, the products are exported to the European Union, Southeast Asia. For this type of export business with the enterprise, may be affected by the decline in a greater impact on export tax rebates, although the appreciation of the renminbi will enable enterprises to reduce imports of wood furniture costs, to a certain extent offset by lower prices for furniture exports caused by the loss, but we should soberly That the international timber market prices have been high, the Americas, Southeast Asia, Russia and other countries and regions started controlling the export of logs.

This will inevitably lead to the domestic furniture industry, the three-tier market will be increasingly fierce competition, thereby making it possible impact to Chengdu in the furniture industry, the market's three "dominant" position, the birth of a new round of trade "reshuffle." In response, all related to the Friends of furniture for that "competition is everywhere, regardless of the export-oriented to the domestic competition, or foreign furniture enterprises of the competition, the market will be intensified over the cake, only to Practicing their own enterprises, in order to stay competitive.
