Dongguan'S Manufacturing Industrial Park Will Rise In North America.

From Vietnam to Africa to the United States, investors have gone through a series of thrilling explorations and finally chosen a more mature market.

After entering Southeast Asia, Africa and other places, this time Dongguan enterprises stepped onto the Americas.

In August 7th, a delegation of entrepreneurs from Dongguan formally signed a contract with the state of Arkansas, a 60 thousand square meter Dongguan made.

It will rise in the North American continent.

In recent years, in order to reduce the cost of enterprises, direct docking terminal customers and other reasons, the Pearl River Delta enterprises "go out" phenomenon, from Southeast Asia, Africa to the Americas.

After around the world, bosses from Dongguan began to focus on local security, business environment and legal protection. This is why Dongguan bosses chose to build factories in the United States at spared no expense.

On the one hand, the selection criteria of Dongguan's owners are changing, and on the other hand, the gravitational attraction brought by the "revitalization of manufacturing" in developed countries, including the United States.

Professor Chen Guanghan, director of the Hong Kong, Macao and Pearl River Delta Research Center of Zhongshan University, said that good market conditions and business environment sometimes attract more investors than cheap labor force.

The path of "made in Dongguan" is the embodiment of pformation and upgrading of manufacturing industry in Dongguan and even in China.

However, it is worth noting that if the enterprises going out can not get good development, they will become hollow in Dongguan or the PRD.

Amazing world

As early as ten years ago, many enterprises in the Pearl River Delta locked their eyes on Southeast Asia.

In 2004, the United States imposed anti-dumping duties on China, including furniture, clothing, footwear and so on.

In the face of difficulties, some enterprises either move entirely or choose to set up factories in Southeast Asia.

Ceng Runkang entered Vietnam this year. "At that time, the idea was very simple, that is, to avoid the" anti-dumping "of the United States, Vietnam did not belong to the goal of the United States.

reshoring

Since the 2008 financial turmoil, the Pearl River Delta enterprises "go out", in addition to their own business behavior, but also from the government's push.

Cao Yunhua, director of the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies, Jinan University, believes that in developing the ASEAN market, Dongguan can invest a lot of surplus capital in ASEAN countries to seek investment opportunities. On the other hand, it can make good use of the ASEAN market to improve itself.

We should adjust and make use of geographical advantages to pfer part of labor-intensive industries.

However, due to the continuous rising of labor costs in Vietnam and other places in recent years, the advantage of "low wage" in Southeast Asian countries is losing.

Wang Xinghua, director of Taiwan Footwear Association, said that the cost of labor in Southeast Asia has reached 1/2 in China today, and even some countries are close to the cost of the mainland.

Due to cultural differences, how to communicate effectively with local workers has become a problem that many enterprises have to face. In addition, the political instability of Southeast Asian countries has brought management trouble.

Fight Africa

The move is not the mainstream, and more Guan enterprises will enlarge their horizons again.

Africa has become the second stop for Dongguan bosses to fight.

In April this year, Xu Jianhua, Secretary of the Dongguan municipal Party committee, went to Africa to carry out economic and trade exchanges with African delegations and business delegations. The African market has become the focus of attention of Dongguan entrepreneurs.

Before that, the Dongguan shoe giant Huajian company closed its factories in Southeast Asia and turned to Ethiopia.

Landing in the United States

Taking the Dongguan boss in Africa seems not satisfactory.

"Labor costs will definitely continue to rise, and Africa will become the next Southeast Asian, plus business environment and social security, we do not care about this."

The chairman of the China Association for the development of Cross Straits economic development, Jiabao, chief executive of Dongguan toy, and his team have been looking for a place where both fish and bear's paw can be shared. For this reason, he has gone all over the world but has finally chosen the United States.

"The enterprises that are going to Arkansas are mainly suppliers of WAL-MART, and Arkansas is also the headquarters of WAL-MART," said LAN Junxiong.

In Dongguan, many enterprises are WAL-MART's foundries. At present, the United States government advocates the revitalization of the United States to create, implement the country's priority procurement plan and provide the corresponding tax relief. WAL-MART, as a well-known large American enterprise, will focus on implementing the relevant policies to revitalize "made in the United States".

"So we are considering setting up factories in the United States and directly producing products in the United States. Is this" made in the United States "?
