Zhongli Furniture searches for digital solution to quality and efficiency demands
Established in 1996, Zhongli Furniture sells its products in more than 100 countries and regions in the world such as the United States, Britain, Russia, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Singapore, United Arab Emirates and Australia. Annual sales amounted to 400 million yuan.
Increasingly stringent efficiency and quality requirements, in domestic and foreign markets, obliged Zhongli to consider upgrading the company’s traditional supply chain. In addition, the customization and aesthetic preferences of the younger generations have brought new growth for the company.
With growing demand for new styles and shorter delivery times, Zhongli’s existing product development chain has made Zhongli look to digital upgrades to improve overall development efficiency, respond to the market in a timely manner, and grasp the rapidly changing domestic market and export market.
