"As the end of the year approaches, the engineering center has ushered in a long-awaited climax!" On the 7th, Liu Liang, chairman of Yingliang Group, shared a very inspiring news on his circle of friends. It is not difficult to see from this that after the "New Ten Measures" of the State Council's Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism were introduced, Nan'an Stone People are full of confidence in the future of the industry.

Heavy snow has arrived, and spring is not far away. As the epidemic policy gradually relaxes, Nan Shuitou restarts the bustling bustle. In the big plate market, more buyers from all over the country have increased, stagnant engineering projects have gradually resumed supply, and major stone exhibitions have also begun to be organized.

Stone market gradually recovered

After the epidemic was lifted, stone bosses have posted "small essays" on their circle of friends, generously showing off the operating conditions of their respective companies.

In recent days, Liu Liang has shared the lively scenes of various departments in his circle of friends every day, and the excitement of "drying" the operation of enterprises on various online platforms is vividly revealed on paper. Coincidentally, Li Zhixiang, general manager of Herunshi Industry's trade department, also showed the grand occasion of trucks queuing up to load goods. In the video, trucks of trucks carrying Portuguese beige and white sand beige drove out from the gate of Herun Shiye Factory No. 3. Li Zhixiang told reporters that in the past three years, there have been too many uncertain factors, and stone companies really dare not make too many aggressive moves, dare not stock up in large quantities, and dare not go abroad to grab orders. With the gradual adjustment of policies, the hidden power of stone enterprises exploded almost immediately.

"At the end of October, the company launched the 'Decisive Battle of 40 Days Sales Charge' ended a few days ago. Our business team exceeded the target task, with a maximum sales of nearly 3 million yuan per person." Li Zhixiang admitted that the successful completion of the event, in addition to the power of teamwork, also indirectly reflects that the market is gradually recovering.

Li Zhixiang said that with the continuous optimization of prevention and control measures, all work will be carried out faster. Whether it is going out to grab customers or customers come to the on-site purchase, it will be more convenient. "Of course, our target customers are not only in the domestic market. Next year, our team will also go abroad and strive to win more overseas orders ."

In addition to stone factories, the large slab market has also ushered in a long-lost hot scene. The progress of investment promotion in the market has become faster, and the number of passenger flows through the market has also increased.

"The shelf position in our market itself is relatively saturated, and there are not many vacant places. Since the end of November, we have received inquiries from many stone merchants from other provinces. They have expressed their idea of ​​wanting to enter Shuitou next year. In addition to some Shuitou people who want to return from other places, there are also some stone practitioners from other places." Chen Wan'er, operation department manager of Pengxiang Stone City, said that Pengxiang Stone City is positioned towards mid-to-high-end. With the increase in the number of intended customers, they can also better screen customers. Wang Alan, the head of the Shengda Point of Jinding Stone Industry, told reporters that in the past month, he has received several groups of customers every day, and basically every day has transactions. "At present, most of the transactions are old customers, but many new faces are beginning to appear in the market." She believes that the stone industry may usher in spring next year.

The restart of the exhibition injects new impetus into the industry

The most exciting thing is that the Shuitou Stone Expo, which has been suspended for a year, finally caught the last bus of 2022. As an important platform for promoting Nan'an and promoting the world's stone capital, Shuitou Stone Expo further promotes the connection between design and Nan'an's leading industries such as stone, and strives to promote cooperation and achieve practical results.

It is understood that The 22nd China (Nan'an) Shuitou International Stone Expo and Stone Design Week will officially launch from May to 28 this month. The 31st Annual Meeting of the Interior Design Branch of the Chinese Society of Architecture will also be held at the same time, which will be linked to the upstream and downstream of the urban design and pan-home industry in the country.

At the same time, Nan'an Stone Association and stone companies have also begun to prepare for next year's exhibition. Pan Xiaomao, general manager of the engineering department of Huahui Group, told reporters that in the past three years of the epidemic, domestic engineering projects have indeed been greatly affected. Fortunately, Huahui began to deepen its efforts in foreign markets a few years ago, actively participated in foreign building materials exhibitions, and developed some fixed customers in , Saudi and other countries. Now dozens of containers are shipped overseas every month. "In the future, foreign markets will remain the focus of deepening their cultivation. Now the prevention and control measures are optimized and improved. Next year, we will continue to participate in overseas exhibitions and take multiple measures to open up the international market." Pan Xiaomao said.

Overseas order expansion has obviously become the consistent direction for stone companies. For small and medium-sized enterprises, if they want to go abroad, they need more help from the association platform and government forces.

"For three years, everyone has not gone out, and our association's member units are always preparing for going abroad." Li Haijun, executive president of Nan'an Stone Foreign Trade Association, said that the association is currently actively understanding and coordinating the overseas exhibition situation next year, and exploring the way for domestic stone companies to go abroad.

Li Haijun admitted that the Association will focus on developing countries and regions next year, including the United States, Middle East , Southeast Asia, Europe, etc., and will lead member companies to visit local customers and strive for more orders. Li Haijun admitted that the use of stone in Europe and the United States is amazing, and the United States alone surpasses the entire Middle East. Moreover, Chinese stone companies are relatively mature in processing and production. As long as they let go of their hands and feet, they will definitely be able to grab more overseas orders.
