During the reporting period, YOUNGOR invested 1 billion 400 million yuan in its wholly owned subsidiary YOUNGOR apparel Holdings Limited.

Through the practice of multi brand operation, YOUNGOR is spanforming from a production and marketing enterprise to a brand enterprise whose core is brand.

It is worth noting that in recent years, in the face of shrinking world consumption and intensifying competition in the domestic market, YOUNGOR has not only strengthened its brand clothing business, but also has made good profits in real estate development and equity investment, which has further increased the overall competitiveness of the group, and has brought new thinking to other garment enterprises.

This is mainly due to the fall in the professional clothing group buying business under the influence of the financial crisis, and the garment export processing business plummeted.

Reasonable planning to find new additions

Results belong to the past, we will start again! The major clothing companies have already put more eyes on the future. What challenges will they face in the next few years? What are the specific measures to deal with?

The 2009 annual report of the seven wolves shows that "the slow integration of channels or the internal control management can not maintain the lead, which may lead to a decline in market share" is the main challenge for the company in the future. In this regard, in the channel construction, in 2010, the company plans to improve the service and management system of distributors in the large area, steadily promote the upgrading and integration of distribution system channels, accelerate the construction of direct operation system, and initially build a standardized management system of direct battalion system, so as to facilitate effective follow-up and promotion.

With the trend of macroeconomic trend improving, it is possible to continue the growth mode based on throttle, which may damage the long-term competitiveness of enterprises. In order to achieve the business goal of growth based on the brand image enhancement, in 2010, the newspaper bird will set up the growth mode of "open source, and throttle as a supplement" under the background of the financial crisis. At the same time, the company will take the first class market as the main image, the two level market as the main performance, the first level market opening more, the two or three level market opening big shop, the big shop strong, the small shop specialized, strengthening the superiority, grasping the tendency market strategy. In 2010, the company also planned to test women's clothing business and develop into the store.

For the United States, the multi brand strategy of the company is still in its infancy, and the operational experience of both the decision-making team and the business team is relatively lacking, and the planning is obviously insufficient.

In this regard, in strengthening the construction of the two brands, the United States signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the DreamWorks Animation Studios, Shanghai art film studio and Japanese Sanrio Co. The Meters/bonwe brand launched the MTEE series, which is defined as the most creative series. It is a platform for displaying animation, fashion events, environmental protection, illustrations and other themes in the series of costumes, making it the first brand of printed apparel in China. The series expects to launch nearly 10000 products in the next few years, becoming another bright spot for Meters/bonwe brand. At the same time, we plan to further expand the children's wear series, and choose the right time to set up an independent ME&CITY Kids to create a new profit growth point for the brand.
