Home improvement after the Spring Festival
The price increase has become a popular trend
Before the Spring Festival, Mr. Wang’s new house was closed. In the past two days, he planned to start renovation. After asking for a circle in the home improvement market, he found that many materials have increased in price. “At the beginning of last year, when parents helped their renovation, the price of many materials was higher than now. It’s cheap.†Recently, the reporter consulted several home improvement companies in Beijing, and the answers were almost identical: the company has already adjusted the price or is preparing to adjust the price. "We just received a notice from the head office in the past few days and started to adjust the price on March 1." A related person in charge of the home improvement company said that one of the main reasons for the increase in home improvement costs is the price increase of raw materials.
Labor costs increase, recruitment is difficult
In the eyes of many insiders, the price increase of home improvement after the Spring Festival is not uncommon. In recent years, the cost of home improvement has been rising. "Three or five years ago, looking for a carpentry to play a 5 square meter wardrobe, the material plus labor costs add up to 2,000 yuan, and according to the cost of this year, the same cabinet, it costs 4,000-5,000 yuan, such a Calculated, the cost has more than doubled," said Zhang Tao, head of the furniture company.
The reporter learned that the increase in home improvement costs, in addition to the material price increase factor, there is another reason is that the recent artificial increase. “Wood workers, painting, ceilings, and wallpapers are all raised in wages.†Ms. Wang, the chairman of a Chinese-style furniture company, has not returned to Beijing after the holiday. The reason is that she is still recruiting in the South. Take the company as an example. Most of the woodworkers are southern workers in Jiangsu and Anhui. The labor cost of the woodworker before the Spring Festival is 140 yuan, and has now risen to 160 yuan and 180 yuan. And a few years ago, these workers spent more than 60 yuan and 80 yuan a day. “The best is the woodwork from Guangdong, which gets at least 100 yuan/day.â€
Collecting achievements
"last" offer
In the case of the decoration industry's "up" sound, the slogan of the "three straight provinces" of the light boat is particularly dazzling and outstanding. Why is the enterprise able to achieve cost increases and is also beneficial to consumers? Secretary-General Zhang Ren, chief of the China Building Decoration Association and the Residential Decoration Committee, said in an interview with the Morning News reporter that although the transportation costs of enterprises are increasing, the cost of human resources is increasing, and social resources are continuously decreasing. In short, The overall operating cost of the society is constantly rising. However, if there is a strong, large-scale, branded home improvement enterprise, it will reduce the construction operation cost by improving productivity, improving technology, and transforming marketing methods. Consumers, nowadays increasingly popular group buying and collecting is a good attempt for a company.
