Clothing Retailers Are Going To Mix And Match Routes And Mix Up The Economy Will Become A Trend.

Is the trend of "mashup" spanformation in clothing retailers?

For baozi will "quit" Fashion industry "Kenneth Chan's real controller has responded for the first time," the group's core business is fashion, and we will not quit this industry, "he said. "Clothing + coffee" may be the development trend of the fashion brand management mode in Chengdu in the future, but it will not rise in large area, because a store with an area of 30 square meters in Chunxi Road will only rent about 2000000 yuan per year, and most garment enterprises can not afford it. 　

On the way to the main office next to Chunxi Road, the pedestrian bridge connects two shopping malls of Wangfujing department store and Maoming department store, and 1000 square meters of Teenie Weenie (hereinafter referred to as "TW"). clothing Shops occupy the southeast corner of the flyover. Just entering the gate, after the Teenie Weenie Cafe counter, two shop assistants smiled and sang, with various kinds of desserts, such as muffin, cheese cake, and so on. This is the first spanformation of TW in Chengdu.

Coincidentally, "world brand" baozi announced that it would sell fashion products at RMB 600 million yuan. Clothes & Accessories 20% of the business interests, the remaining 80% of the rights and interests may also be sold in 3 months. The outside world once speculated that this is a spanformation of baozi or "quit the fashion industry". In response, Kenneth Chan, the real controller of baozi company, responded that the sale of shares was aimed at delisting the H-share market and returning to A shares.

"Clothing + coffee" mix up economy

Buying coffee accounts for 60% of consumption.

The afternoon sunlight shines into the windows and is integrated with the yellow light. The brown wooden tables and chairs with bear bear LOGO are lined up along the landing windows. The other side of the white fence is divided, showing the new season's parent-child outfit and TW's peripheral products. Mr. Yang ordered a latte and chose a window seat to sit down. My daughter is going to school soon, and my wife is picking new clothes for her. Mr. Yang has plenty of time to have a cup of coffee. At the next table, two girls in high school are holding the Winnie the doll and the sweet self. Outside the window, people carrying shopping bags are passing through the overpass.

Following Nanjing and Hangzhou, in May 1st of this year, TW began trial operation at the life experience Museum of Chengdu general store. Apart from the complete product line, it opened up a coffee area consisting of 14 tables and 56 seats. It is understood that this is the first time that TW has tried in Chengdu the business mode of mixed operation of "clothing + coffee". A total of 8 shop assistants are responsible for coffee related catering services, including coffee, tea, juice, milkshake, cakes, biscuits, and so on. The price is equal to that of Starbucks.

In recent days, the reporter observed the business situation of the store and found that on average four hundred or five hundred people entered the shop on weekdays, and the number of people entering the shop doubled on weekends. Among them, young women accounted for more than 50%. From 13 to 20 weekends, the coffee area was basically full, which was the most busy moment for the shop assistants.

The spanformation of "world brand"

Will develop e-commerce and more brands

　　 Clothing brand The spanformation is by no means accidental. Recently, the 2014 annual report of the "world brand" Baozhuang company showed that the sales volume of baozi declined for the first time in 5 years, or 12.1%. While revenues declined, the company's rental costs and advertising and promotional expenses rose sharply. External analysis, which is affected by the decline in revenues and profits, and the rise of online shopping, is the first step in the spanformation of baozi's "apparel" business.

In response to baozi's "withdrawal from the fashion industry", Kenneth Chan, the real controller of baozi company, has responded for the first time. "The core business of the group is fashion, and we will not quit this industry." The so-called "exit" is just a misunderstanding of the privatization of the company. Kenneth Chan said.

The market value of baozi in the H-share market is about 3 billion 100 million Hong Kong dollars, or about 2 billion 600 million yuan. The A company's price earnings ratio can reach 50-60 times. "Baozi is carrying out capital restructuring in a planned way. After privatization, it will withdraw from the H-share market and gradually spanform baozi's China business into A shares. We hope to create the largest luxury group in China." According to introduction, Baozi is expected to increase 15-20 new stores this year, mainly in the first tier cities. Will develop Online retailers To expand more brands and launch a younger series.

Retail industry complies with market spanformation

Shopping mall "go to department stores"

In addition, the retail industry in Chengdu is also carrying out the spanformation of "going to department stores" to spanform the shopping center which pays more attention to experiential shopping, so that consumers can finish all kinds of consumption of beer and skittles. In June 2nd, Thailand's central Shang Hang group's department store announced that it will close Chengdu the Mixc store in August, which also indicates that the largest department store in Thailand will withdraw from the Chinese market. In addition, in May 11th, the 101 shopping Art Center of Chunxi Road business circle suspended business without notification to merchants. The Tianhong Department store, located in the red Pai Lou, will be officially closed in June 25th. It is said that the owner will build a community business center.

According to sharp data statistics, as of April 2015, the total volume of shopping centers in Chengdu exceeded 7 million square meters, ranking first in the country. At present, there are 71 shopping centers in Chengdu's main urban area, 52 have been opened and 19 are under construction, with an average of 12 in each administrative area. It can be seen that the competition form of Chengdu's retail industry is very severe, forcing some projects to spanform.

The three department stores, which have been or are facing closed stores, are not self possessed property stores, which, to a certain extent, have restricted the development of shopping malls. "Going to department stores is a trend in the development of shopping centers, and the withdrawal of Shang Tai is also based on the judgment of future retail trends." The Mixc business responsible person.
