Recommendation

China’s consumer brands are in for a year of volatility in 2019. The country’s economy is on a downward slope, so consumers are likely to hold off on purchases. As a result, almost every brand will find itself under siege. Gao Ge, an analyst for business platform 36Kr offers advice on how to deal with a tougher environment, such as focusing on young consumers and new retailing. As a silver lining for domestic brands, she highlights the nation’s continued demand for homegrown brands. The article could be better structured, but Gao’s expertise will be helpful for anyone who wants to safeguard his or her business or investment in the Chinese consumer brand market.

Take-Aways

  • The year 2019 doesn’t bode well for China’s consumer brands, and conditions will possibly drive weaker competitors out of the market.
  • On the upside, Chinese consumers’ preference for domestic brands will likely hold firm.
  • However, increased consumer segmentation, especially among young customers, will further complicate market dynamics.
