India is still attractive to global fashion brands and Fashion Team in India

There is a recent research which shows that in spite of a rather lukewarm response to liberalisation of government regulation on foreign investment in retail, India is still attractive to global fashion and lifestyle brands,especially global garment brand.

Fashion

 

The research research report ,whose title is “India - A Growth Trajectory for Global Fashion Brands”,is 6th in the annual series of research reports by Third

Eyesight evaluating the strategies of the global fashion brands in the Indian b2b market.

 

While the growth of new global fashion brands entering the Indian market has been slow over the last three years, there are already over 200 global brands present in the market.

 

Almost 30% of the global brands present in India are American while about a fifth of the brands are Italian. Other mainly countries from which the global fashion brands have originated are UK, France and Germany.

 

Further liberalization of policy on foreign investment in retail in September 2012 has not brought a flood of foreign brands and retailers. However, some of the existing brands have used the opportunity to increase their stakes in the Indian business including converting their Indian business to a 100% owned entity, thus demonstrating their longer-term commitment to the market.

 

At the operational level most brands have taken a cautious approach to retail growth focusing on operational efficiency and tapping Tier II markets and channels such as e-commerce to sustain their business. Levi Strauss, in fact, preferred to cut back on sales in order to focus on better margins.

 

We know that 2014 seems to be a promising year with brands such as H&M lining up their entry. Third Eyesight’s research report states that “India is not just a short-term business opportunity but a growing b2b market that could possibly make a significant contribution to the global brands’ global business in the future.”

4 Favourable Factors of LED Lamps and Lanterns Export

For nearly three years, with the widespread application of LED products in the global scope, LED lamps and lanterns export is rapidly growing.In addition to the slow recovery of world economy and overall situation of foreign trade better, the rapid growth of its positive factor mainly has the following several aspects:


1.Good market environment.

Light and Lightings

  First of all, because of the influence of the consumption idea and energy prices factors, our domestic LED lamps and lanterns market mainly rely on the pushing of our country government procurement,and relatively domestic demand market is insufficient.Energy conservation and environmental protection consciousness is generally strong and the consumption idea of foreign consumers is in advance, and the higher price of overseas markets, collecting payment cycle shorter, and external market obvious advantages, is also more profitable;Second, the global LED bulb prices also stimulated the rapid growth of exports.According to relevant market authorities,whether it is replaced by 40 or 60 watt LED bulbs in many markets around the world, and the lowest price has been lower than $10. Since the traditional energy-saving lamps price has basic quite, which has been the direct stimulation of the global demand for LED lamps and lanterns, especially the emerging market countries demand growth.

2.The government's policy support.

  First of all, in addition to the central government's implement for the LED lamps and lanterns export tax rebates and cuts the commodity inspection fees as high as 13, the local government promotes the growth of the LED lamps and lanterns of export trade,which has accelerated the inspection and quarantine, technical standard testing LED the construction of public service platform, objectively promoted the development of export trade of LED lamps and lanterns;Second, from a global scale, more and more countries are stepping up the legislation, and encouraging the use of energy-saving light source, such as the United States, the European Union, Japan, Australia and other developed markets,in addition to the place where the LED lighting products have different degree of subsidies. Eliminated the incandescent lamp also have issued policies and regulations,which makes the market demand of LED lamps and lanterns have a lot of room to grow.

3.Enterprise initiatives.
  First of all, some foreign well-known enterprises, such as osram, philips and other, lamps and lanterns has come into China in succession. Domestic enterprises are good at imitating the near distance learning opportunities, thus they can promote their technical level and improve design level, effectively reduce the problem that are caused by quality, price, vicious competition and trade disputes,etc;Second, many powerful LED lighting companies set up branch in developed markets, such as Europe and the United States. and overseas marketing center is more directly understanding the market demand and the latest developments in technology,whcih can avoid some of the disputes over trade and technology barriers.

4.Product price advantage.
  First of all, our LED light and lightings export enterprises possess raw materials, low labor costs, labor intensive, cheap Labour costs and low prices of raw materials ,which has produced products that have low price competitive advantage;Second, with the technological innovation and progress, the LED chip prices are also reduced year by year, at the same time it is affected by domestic LED manufacturers and put into operation and localization of replacement, from the beginning of 2012, LED chip imports has beeb rising export growth significantly which below the LED lamps and lanterns.To a certain extent, it also reduces the cost of production of LED lamps and lanterns.

International Electric Car Manufacturers is about to Face Challenges in China

This is an article about international electric vehicle manufacturers in China facing serious challenge.if you care about car industry and international trade, you should take a patience to read this article.

With the worsening environmental situation in China, the government has stepped up support for the electric automobile sector, with international producers also trying to tap into the the world's largest potential auto market for electric vehicles.

automobiles motorcycles

Volkswagen plans to produce electric automobiles starting from 2016 and supply the Chinese auto market with 10 different models by 2020. In the meantime, Volkswagen's luxury brand Audi also plans to launch a hybrid model, reports Tencent's finance portal.

One of Toyota's hybrid automobiles targeting the Chinese auto market is set to go into mass production next year, while Honda is working with Dongfeng Motor and the Guangzhou Automobile Group to begin producing hybrid automobiles in China in 2016.

Tesla Motors opened its first directly operated store in Beijing and its Model S sports automobile is set to go on sale in March. The US-based company also plans to open at least 10 new stores in China this year.

China is the world's largest automobile auto market with total sales touching about 22 million vehicles in 2013. However, sales for electric automobiles are less than 20,000 units.

Given the new pressure for environmental protection efforts in the country, demand for electric automobiles is expected to increase rapidly. However, overseas electric automobile producers will have a number of challenges ahead. As most domestic electric automobile companies rely heavily on subsidies provided by local governments, competitors from overseas may find themselves struggling against protectionism at the local level.

Shenzhen-based BYD enjoys subsidies of 70,000 yuan (US$11.350) from the city government for its Qin model electric automobile but it can only get half that from the central government in Beijing.

Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation, FAW Group Corporation, Dongfeng Motor and Chang'an Automobile Group have also introduced hybrid automobiles in China.

No matter what will happen after the severe situation, in my opinion, China has always been a high-end consumer market, foreign cars,especially automobiles and motorcycles makers  would have been very popular in China.Therefore, high-end car makers don't need to worry about.

China and India Will Strengthen Cooperation in Textile Industry To Develop Together

Focus on dynamic of China and India in the textile industry has great benefits for textile and garment suppliers in India.Are you ready ?

India Garments Exporter

India is the world second largest supplier of clothing and textile products, and is also the only one who has the ability to compete with China in the textile and garment industry in the world.( More Global Trade Opportunities in Tradezz )Indian textile industry is related to cotton, wool, linen, silk, chemical fiber, knitting, etc.,the annual output value of cotton products is op to more than 75% which account for the total output value of all Indian textile industry.

Since the 1990 s, the Indian textile industry keep high-speed growth momentum for many years, and rapidly has obtained the considerable competitive advantage in the global textile market.Textile industry occupy the important position in India's GDP, employment population and foreign exchange revenue.

Textile wholesale and export trade is one of the most dynamic field of the india-china trade. India's textile exports to China's is $4.6 billion in 2013, and the import of textiles from China is $4 billion.As the world's second largest suppliers and of cotton yarn, India's exports to China is based on cotton yarn,and there is complementary on textiles trade structure between the two countries.

On March 4, 2014, the seminar about investing Indian textile industry was held in Shanghai, when the new India's ambassador of China, kang said: in 2013, India's trade deficit with China reached $35 billion, (india-china trade structure) is not sustainable, India needs to upgrade the value chain,and China can be used to increase the investment in India to promote trade between the two countries.

Indian cotton textiles export promotion committee chairman ma nikon, lamas vast believe that India and China textile trade has great potential to dug. On the one hand, the Indian textile industry faces technology upgrading, which needs a lot of equipment. On the other hand non-woven fabrics and industrial fabrics exists bigger potential demand,which therefore need to attract foreign capital and for China's textile enterprises plagued by cost growth, India will be an ideal industry transfer destination.

Bharat Ramaswami points out that, except for the raw material and labor cost advantage, India textile industry will also provide more competitive advantage. Dollar-denominated land costs are falling, and as the promotion of the power grid, new energy development and the construction of transport infrastructure, electricity and logistics cost is expected to continue to decline.

Bharat Ramaswami introduces that, textile is India's second largest export products after agriculture, and the government of India regard it as a major industry of absorbing rural surplus labor force, thus the government has a series of investment policies encouraging foreigners, including welcome to establish foreign textile industrial park in India,and the Indian government adjust tariffs to stimulate leather and clothing export.

LED lighting industry needs to be shifted from manufacturing to creating

Today, I want to talk about the development problem of current China's LED industry, especially involving the reform of the LED industry,I hope China LED manufacturers have to take a look.

Relevant data has shown that,there are nearly 2000 suppliers engaged in LED technology and product research, development, production and application in shenzhen,which account for 30% of the whole LED industry in China.But most of them belong to the technical field of LED package and application, rare suppliers of chip, semiconductor materials, fluorescent powder enterprises.I think, technologies, processes, equipment,and key raw materials all need to be introduced.

According to preliminary statistics, until June in 2013, shenzhen LED patent applications was up to 17373 pieces,account for about 40% of the whole province.But the patent of middle and lower reaches of encapsulation and application in industry is close to 50%, and in the upstream of the extension of industry and chips, is less proportion of patents.

Meanwhile, shenzhen LED patent is specially for more peripheral patents, but the patents that are lack of core patents, especially the white light, high power LED lamp heat balance problem and lasting and efficient phosphor powder, have been monopolized by Europe, the United States and Japan.So if Shenzhen LED companies want to break through the patent barriers, they must gain a breakthrough in terms of technical route and key materials.

Besides shenzhen, other LED production base is also deeply regression of "patent", recently patent cases is giving a big call to the enterprise.After the original extensive development,LED suppliers must sink down and calm thinking and practice the future path of light.

In view of the current situation of being lack of LED patent and the brand, the director of the institute of Shanghai lighting Wu Hong indicated that, the current development the LED is only virtual prosperity, under the surface of "made in China" label, most LED products are being in branded stage. Therefore, Wu Hong thinks, if the future of LED industry want to be healthy development, LED enterprises must give up the outdated development, but break dowm to absorb the inertia of thinking, enhance the independent innovation of the initiative, so as to improve the product's original technology and quantity of the gold. In general it is the product price, advanced, practical, consistency, stability, safety and reliability, durability, etc...

Wu Hong pointed out that the current fluorescent lamp, high strength gas discharge lamp, white LED lights and lighting source and lighting fixtures are facing the challenges of international and domestic in quality,brand and market, which will also gave rise to the LED industry structure adjustment, increase LED enterprise mergers and acquisitions group, this test will be an unprecedented severe, and the range is very wide, including industrial chain, the chain of environmental protection, economy chain and market chain...Therefore Wu Hong thought, under this malaise, if LED wants to continue to repeat construction and copying,this eventually will fail, only the combination of technical innovation and entrepreneurial teams, from "made in China" to "created in China", can rush out a way of industrial development.

Reform is not the way to speed up the pace of production, not just imitate the technology of other countries, the real reform I think is radically creating LED products.At the same time ,with the repid development of mobile Internet , the trend of LED  lighting design industry under mobile Internet still gets the attention of many LED designers and manufacturers

We have discussed topic about LED export faces the challenge of the standard in the last article ,if you want to learn more,welcome to read. 

If you have persinal idea about led lighting, welcome to leave a comment here.

LED export faces the challenge of the standard

In recent years, the United States, Japan, the European Union and other developed economie formulate some relevant standards for LED products, such as security, performance, energy efficiency and so on,which is mainly used to regulate the LED market.On September 1, the latest requirements of LED energy efficiency will be formally implemented in Europe.Then, LED lighting products export to Europe must conform to the requirements of the new LED energy efficiency standards.

Car lighting

It is understood that the new rules will be implemented in three phases: the first stage of the start-up time is on September 1, 2014, the second phase is on September 1, 2015, the third stage is on September 1, 2016.

The EU is the place where has the highest requirements for LED products.If LED products come into the EU market,it must meet the safety requirements of the low voltage directive and electromagnetic compatibility requirements,restricting use certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (RoHS) and scrapping instruction to electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) and the ecological environment protection and energy dissipation products design instruction (ErP) in the energy efficiency requirements.In addition, the LED products shall conform to the relevant laws and regulations which was stipulated by the conformity assessment procedures.Only in this way, can they be CE mark and smoothly into the EU LED market.

In the face of new LED product challenges, inspection and quarantine departments remind LED suppliers and wholesalers that,first, LED suppliers should actively change LED design ideas, improve the energy efficiency indexes and ecological design LED product;Second, LED supplier should establish active consciousness on quality management, the LED material must be best, production workshop of LED products should be safety ,and checking LED product must be strict;In aspact of LED product development, LED sippliers should pay attention to the design requirements of energy efficiency, ensuring that LED products comply with the requirements of the ERP directive;Finally, testing LED product must complete the conformity so as to adapt to the changing of the allowable value of energy efficiency and test program requirements.I think through the continuous improvement of LED product performance,China LED suppliers must win the initiative of our country LED products in the international LED market.

The trend of LED lighting design industry under Mobile Internet

The trend of LED lighting design industry under mobile Internet is shiftng rapidly,do you have realised?Today,we will discuss this problem.

Figures show that China's mobile Internet users has exceeded 800 million, and the mobile Internet users is more than 96%, and the data still maintained a high rising speed .Wakefree LED Research Group think, the present situation of big base of mobile Internet users is new opportunities of all industry market, as well as for LED design industry.

Wakefree LED Research Group thinks that, for the LED industry, mobile Internet will bring two major opportunities: In the application level, intelligent lighting and mobile communications have various combinations opportunity, which will provide users with better intelligent lighting experience;In the marketing level, weibo, micro letter technology platform will be based on mobile Internet rapid development, and provide lighting design and lighting products with new "micro" machine, in turn,it will introduce new products of LED lighting industry consumption trend at the same time.Is it the problem that LED manufacturers and developers should think about ?

"Control lighting by mobile phone software is part of embodiment of intelligent lighting. Wakefree Group indicates that, under the new opportunity, recycling the integration of lighting resources and there are more intelligent lighting business.For example,Philips and Ericsson, through the effective integration of mobile network and the advantage of LED lighting, "lighting - service" has make the city a common pattern.By this model, Ericsson could put mobile telecommunications equipment within the philips lamp light pole,and philips will provide the city with integrating of the LED street lamp Ericsson mobile telecommunications equipment;While mobile operators working with Ericsson can rent the space inside the light pole, for urban mobile broadband network architecture, improve data coverage and network capacity, so as to provide better mobile broadband services for citizens.This model not only simplify the construction cost, cost savings, and more conducive to the unity of the urban construction and orderly.

Mobile Internet and LED intelligent lighting can be more combination , such as by light signal achieving indoor accurate positioning and navigation has aroused the concern of the LED industry;Control system for control terminal lighting and meanwhile for real-time monitoring and gathering all kinds of lighting information, again through the cloud computing on large data analysis and processing, finally realizing the active inquiries, active control of lighting system, remote maintenance, security monitoring, and other functions;APP, based on LED intelligent lighting control products, will better provide service for commercial lighting project. Through the APP products not only strengthen the consumer and commercial lighting design environment interaction and experience,it can also help more for the merchant to collect the user information form the sales database.

Under the impetus of the mobile Internet, the business model of traditional marketing has lost competitiveness. As consumers are being in change, purchase behavior being in change and this shift is almost irreversible, LED suppliers' marketing reform must be on the way."Marketing" is becoming the experience of so many businesses marketing methods, Wakefree Trade Research Group thought that, using the emerging network platforms such as weibo, micro letter for lighting design industry marketing not only can save marketing costs, but are more likely to attract the attention of young consumers.LED Lighting design fully mix with the Internet, not only help to win a wider range of lighting industry, but also have the opportunity to guide consumption trend with LED lighting design.

5 Tips for global trade especially small business

Small businesses are often the heartbeat of local economies. But could some of your best customers be waiting overseas? Outside of governments and multinational corporations, international trade was, until recently, a discipline that most small businesses didn't dare attempt. Paperwork, fees, regulations, tariffs, language barriers: keeping a business afloat is hard enough without piling on all of these concerns (and added costs).

But ecommerce and globalization have radically changed the landscape, according to Michael Lee, the director of global marketing for the massive, international B2B ecommerce platform Chemkind.com. He told Small Business Computing that engaging in the international marketplace online "is a good opportunity for small businesses to expand their footprint globally at low or minimal cost."

The Small Business Administration (SBA) notes that nearly 96 percent of the world's consumers live beyond U.S. shores. If you're looking to expand into other markets, keep in mind that foreign countries hold two-thirds of the world's purchasing power.

That's a lot of new customers -- not to mention a bunch of potential revenues. Use these five tips to help get started and to prosper once the goods start flowing.

5 Small Business Tips for World Domination

1. Think Globally

This should come naturally to entrepreneurs: Stop thinking small!

The global marketplace can seem overwhelming, but if you want to see your product in other markets, you have to start somewhere.  The SBA, as always, offers guides that can point you in the right direction.

Start with the Explore Exporting resources at SBA.gov. Not only will they give you the lay of the land and show you where to find professional help and guidance, but they do something else that's invaluable: they get you into the mindset of an exporter.

2. Perform Your Market Research and Due Diligence
The SBA suggests, "Use market research to learn your product's potential in a given market, where the best prospects exist for success, and common business practices."

Check out The Market Research Library and Trade Stats Express to see whether entering a particular market is even worth considering. The government sits on a treasure trove of trade statistics, use them.

When you get to the stage where you're ready to consider partnering up, Alibaba's Lee says, "we strongly suggest that users to do their due diligence." Just because the Internet makes it easier to conduct global trade, "it doesn't remove the requirement to do the due diligence," he adds.

Gobble up each scrap of information on a partner that you can, including the company structure and reports conducted by third parties for insight on how they conduct themselves. When looking for suppliers, check that their manufacturing and shipping capabilities match their claims.

3. Form Relationships
When you order a gadget on Amazon, chances are that you won't get chummy with Jeff Bezos. While B2B ecommerce platforms like Alibaba.com make it relatively easy to find new suppliers, you'll want to put in the extra effort of establishing deeper ties.

"At the end of the day, finding a partner is about building a relationship," says Lee. Simply put, take the time to know your trading partner and to establish a rapport.

4. Trust Your Gut
One good way to weed out wastes of time is to trust your gut, advises Lee.

Your first impression of an online supplier can be a good indicator of how they conduct their affairs. If they're cagey about their capabilities, present "fragmented information" or skimp on "information about who they are," walk away.

Their websites can also tip you off, says Lee.

If a supplier is serious about conducting business online, its website or storefront should be up to snuff. It may not be the picture of perfection, but it should at least be informative and appear professional.

5. Don’t Skimp on Communication
"There's no such thing as over-communication in global trading," says Lee.

Expect to "encounter language barriers and cultural differences," adds Lee. When it comes to your livelihood and that of your employees, there's no room for interpretation. "Everything should be black and white," he suggests.

Finally, set clear expectations and terms. "Suppliers may not want to say no," which can lead to delays and complications because they overpromise and under deliver, says Lee.
