New Strength Of Wuhan Garment Industry

According to Forbes magazine, 1268 of the 2272 listed companies in China are privately owned.

According to statistics, among the leaders of these family enterprises, the "couple shop" is the most, followed by brotherhood, paternity and mother son relations.

But of the 460 listed family businesses, only 21 companies' founders have passed on to the next generation, accounting for only 4.57%.

It is worth mentioning that the power of "son-in-law" is rising, which seems to be a choice that entrepreneurs who have no children to face.

Looking around the family business in Wuhan, there are not many industries in the succession period.

Gan Dean, one of the first scholars to study family business in China, director of the school of Arts and Sciences of Jianghan University and master tutor of Hubei Academy of Social Sciences, told reporters: "the development cycle of family businesses is related to the overall strength of local private economy.

The family business in Wuhan has a short history, so there are not many enterprises entering the waiting period.

As a leader in traditional industries in Wuhan, the reporters found that some Wuhan garment enterprises have begun to steer by "two generations of enterprises".

"The majority of successors are sons," said the head of the Wuhan clothing association. "But a few son-in-law have come to the fore and have become the real leaders of the enterprises."

"The Japanese family business has the preface of having the eldest son, the prodigal son and the foster son. If the eldest son does not use it, he would rather pass it to the foster son, mainly from the" law "; but the family business in China passes the position, and the daughter can not pass the son-in-law, the main consideration is blood factor.

But China's "son-in-law boss" is mostly in charge of the management rights, and the shares are also controlled by the daughter, which makes the son-in-law steering enterprises have more instability, Gan Dean said.
