Shunde furniture development history

Compared with the rest of the country, before the reform and opening up of Shunde, its furniture production are mainly carpentry masters, there are a few collectively operated woodworking society. Shunde furniture can be famous all over the world, and at that time, the relationship between the woodworking society is not very big; Shunde furniture industry is not those ambitious entrepreneurs, but at that time, forced to make a living as farmers. Shunde furniture development and growth, mainly experienced the following four periods:

1, the grass-roots period

In the late 1970s, Shunde farmers to plant sugar cane, fish farming as the main business, most of the year are in a leisurely, poor living conditions. Shunde Longjiang Town, Longshan Commune, Chen Chung Village, a farmer surnamed Chen, his relatives living in Hong Kong presented him with a set of sofas, all the neighbors sat on the sofa after sitting on the sofa, are on the sofa's comfort is full of praise, and the sofa to the family is very envious of the sofa (at that time, only a few cadres have sofas in the country's family). This farmer had a whim to take apart the sofa, which was very valuable at that time, and realized that its construction was quite simple and most of the raw materials for making sofas could be found, so he started to make sofas at home. These extremely simple sofas were immediately in short supply after being displayed next to National Highway 325 in Long Jiang. Many farmers in Long Son Commune then began making sofas at home and selling them to passing travelers on the side of the road.

2, the wait-and-see period

Shunde party committees and the government at the time of farmers to organize simple workshops with an enlightened attitude, but due to the end of the 1970s, the early 1980s, the economic thinking is still very conservative, Shunde furniture has experienced a short wait-and-see period. During this time, the production methods of family workshops, the supply of materials for producing furniture and the supply of equipment remained unchanged, while some simple production techniques and market information were exchanged semi-secretly among friends and relatives, and the furniture production remained in a more primitive stage, and there was no significant improvement in production and quality until around 1985, but these small family workshops accumulated valuable market resources and capital.

3, production development period

After 1985, Longjiang town government led the construction of Nantian Furniture Factory (collective nature), many villages have also organized village collective factories. Shunde furniture production was rapidly improved, due to the extreme lack of furniture on the market, the quality of these furniture is not as good as it is still very sought after. Although the collective enterprise property rights are not clear, poor efficiency, but these collective enterprises still cultivated the early industrial workers and management personnel, today, Shunde's many large furniture enterprises, their bosses are from this group of collective enterprises.

4, rapid development period

1992 after Comrade Xiaoping's visit to the South, more people boldly into the Shunde furniture industry, Shunde Longjiang private furniture enterprises such as the mushrooming, and Lechon's furniture sales market is also expanding day by day. Shunde Lunjiao Wooden Ware Society of a group of patriarchs, stopped the production of wood, turned to the manufacture of simple woodworking machinery; and Shunde paint enterprises, also large-scale rise ...... Shunde furniture has entered the golden period of development.

5, quality change period

1998 years ago, private enterprises to open the road horse power production of furniture, so that China's furniture market quickly changed from a seller's market to a buyer's market. A large number of insightful people began to frequently out of the country, to Europe and the United States to observe furniture exhibitions and buy foreign high-quality equipment and finished furniture, the introduction of quality personnel within the enterprise, the introduction of the ISO9000 international quality system certification, so that the quality of Shunde furniture rapidly improved, these high-quality furniture products, quickly in the domestic and international markets and other areas of the gap. Today, many furniture companies in Shunde with excellent product quality, it is at this stage that the quality change began.

6, branding period

Slightly later than the quality change, Shunde, a group of prescient furniture companies, began to introduce and explore the sales system in line with the Chinese furniture market. In 2000 or so, many furniture manufacturing enterprises have begun the agency sales model, the brand franchise model, the practice has proved that the brand franchise model is more suitable for the sale of high-end furniture. In today's major cities in the middle and high-end furniture malls, most of the furniture brands are made in Shunde; and furniture made in Shunde, occupies a large share of China's furniture export market.

7, the period of sustained development, extended development period

Shunde furniture to the world's most complete industrial chain to attract furniture buyers at home and abroad, Shunde furniture industry has entered a sustainable development stage. At the same time, due to the small area of Shunde, and furniture manufacturing on the land demand is quite strong, since 2000, Shunde furniture began to radiate to the surrounding: Foshan Nanhai, Gaoming, Guangzhou Panyu, Zhongshan, Jiangmen Heshan and the surrounding furniture manufacturing enterprises, most of them invested in the Shunde furniture bosses, Shunde furniture in the sustainable development of at the same time, but also created the "pan Shunde furniture in the sustainable development, but also created a "pan-Shunde furniture industry circle".
