In 2014, the traditional furniture manufacturing industry in China faced a series of challenges. Shenzhen Huaren Industrial Factory collapsed, Huayuanxuan's supply chain suffered a major breakdown, and Fuzhidao furniture workers went on strike. These incidents signaled that the sector was encountering widespread difficulties. As the year marked a period of deepening reforms across China’s economy, politics, and society, it also represented a crucial turning point for the manufacturing industry.
The home furnishings sector was undergoing significant changes. On one hand, the government pushed for energy efficiency and emission reduction, prompting a "green revolution" in the industry and forcing companies to upgrade their production processes. On the other hand, the integration of internet thinking and technological advancements required traditional enterprises to rethink their management styles, marketing strategies, and production technologies. Moreover, more furniture companies began pursuing listings to raise capital, signaling an accelerating transformation in the competitive landscape.
Manufacturing capability remains a core strength for any furniture company. Many well-known brands struggled due to weak production capacities, which limited their market competitiveness and hindered growth. For example, Qumei Furniture, known for its rapid sales growth, faced bottlenecks in productivity. In 2014, it announced plans to raise around 1.087 billion yuan, with nearly half allocated to the construction of a new production base. The Eastern Production Base, covering 507 acres and expected to cost 1.09 billion yuan, aimed to boost production capacity significantly once fully operational.
Ou Pai Home has long been a pioneer in the Chinese home furnishing industry, embracing the concept of a large-scale home strategy and driving brand evolution. From being the “cabinet king†to offering integrated home solutions, the company has consistently focused on consumer needs and led industry innovation. According to Yao Liangsong, the home furnishings industry is at a critical stage of transformation. With external and internal conditions now favorable, the sector must be led by pioneers who can shift from being product operators to providers of comprehensive solutions. This transition is essential for the industry’s future development and competitiveness.
