The Status Quo Of The Hardware Industry
1. The rapid development of industry production With the rapid development of the construction industry and architectural decoration industry, my country's hardware industry has also developed rapidly. According to statistics, in 2004, the total output value of my country's hardware industry reached 250 billion yuan (about 30 billion U.S. dollars), and the total import and export volume of hardware products reached 31.22 billion U.S. dollars, a year-on-year increase of 3.536%. 7.088 billion US dollars, a year-on-year increase of 2.817. Due to the improvement of my country's hardware manufacturing level, the expansion of production capacity and the strong momentum of my country's economic growth, my country's hardware import and export will still maintain a high growth rate of more than 30% in the next few years. The growth rate of export trade is higher than the growth rate of total output value, which reflects the improvement and enhancement of the competitiveness of my country's hardware products in the international market. The development of the hardware industry has prospered the market and met the needs of national construction and people's lives. The hardware industry is full of vigor and vitality, and its status and role in national economic and social development have become increasingly prominent.
2. Profound changes have taken place in the industry structure The structure of the national construction hardware industry and the structure of enterprises have undergone profound changes. With the development of the architectural decoration industry and the improvement of people's living standards, emerging industries such as architectural decorative hardware, architectural stainless steel hardware, and safety and fireproof hardware have developed rapidly. Through reform and opening up, private, joint-stock, joint ventures, and foreign-funded enterprises have developed rapidly, and the national and collective enterprises have been greatly reduced. Private enterprises have developed into the main force of the hardware industry, and the pattern of departmental monopoly and regional blockade has been broken. Structural adjustments and mechanism changes have greatly promoted the development of productive forces, and a number of state-owned and collectively-owned enterprises have added vitality through restructuring.
3. Create a batch of competitive famous and high-quality products. Through product structure adjustment and technological innovation, a batch of competitive products at home and abroad have been created, such as Beijing Sender Radiator, Guangdong Guli, Security System Lock, Wenzhou Wuzhou, and Zhejiang Bomin. famous products.
4. The specialized base for product production is gradually formed, and the market specialization enters the development period. The development of hardware products to a specialized base is an inevitable trend and a concrete manifestation of the development of productivity. The development of the hardware specialized market is a symbol of the market economy and an inevitable product of the development of the market economy and the development of the hardware industry. By 2002, my country already had 2,500 comprehensive building materials and hardware markets that deal in building decoration materials and building materials, with an annual transaction volume of about 200 billion yuan. The comprehensive booth-style building materials and hardware market has entered a period of integration, and gradually develops into supermarkets, booths, supermarkets, and specialization.
5. The shortcomings of my country's hardware industry at this stage: the hardware industry is still at the lowest end of the global industrial chain; the quality of hardware products has seriously affected the competitiveness of the hardware industry; my country's "tradition" of emphasizing production and ignoring circulation has led to a relatively lagging hardware product circulation service industry; In the international hardware market, there are very few independent hardware brands in my country.
