Rising prices of raw materials, hardware products, rising prices
"How many high-level bench drills with this air pump?" "7300 yuan." "Wow, no, it has risen so much, I remember that last April was 5,800 yuan." "Yes, next In the first half of the year, it rose twice, the first time it rose by 10%, and the second time it rose by 15%. Oh, no way, the material and labor costs have risen, and the ex-factory price has gone up. We can only Recently, when I visited the China Science and Technology Hardware City Jindu Market, I just saw the scene of the inquiry between the Gushan customer and a Taiwanese diamond dealer Chen Bo. After some bargaining, the last two people sold at a price of 7,150 yuan per unit. Seeing that Chen was a little idle, the author came forward to chat with him. “The raw materials have risen and fallen, but the prices put up by the manufacturers will not fall. In addition, the artificial wages have risen too much this year. From the frontline workers to the management personnel, the increase rate has reached 30%. These cost manufacturers can only be grafted. On the customer's head. As a dealer, we have a hard time." Coincidentally, in Jincheng Eight Street, the author also saw a scene of consumer complaints. “How did the wire rise so fast? It has risen by more than 20 pieces.†Mr. Hu, who is buying wire and cable in the hardware city Jindu market, is skeptical about the offer. The boss Xu explained: "Copper, aluminum, plastic and other raw materials have risen in price, labor and freight have also risen, and wire and cable have to follow the price increase." The author was informed that from October last year to now, half a year, The price of copper has risen a lot, not to mention labor and shipping. When it comes to decoration, it is natural not to open home hardware. However, with the hardware products raising prices one by one, the decoration industry is undoubtedly the most directly affected by the hardware price increase. As long as the copper and iron building materials are in the price increase, a bundle of ordinary copper core wires is more than 100 yuan more than the previous year. . Consumer Ye said that the same is the decoration of 100 square meters of suites, before the locks, door cabinet handles and other hardware, wire budget is about 4,000 yuan, but after the actual purchase price in the hardware market will be more than 5000 yuan can be Get it done. Affected by factors such as rising raw material prices and rising labor costs, the price increase of small household appliances such as electric fans, gas stoves and induction cookers seems to be on the line. A few days ago, a number of small household appliance dealers have revealed that they have received verbal price increases from a number of brand manufacturers. The average price of electric appliances such as electric fans and range hoods is about 5%. Many well-known brands have completed the price increase, and the main means is to reduce the market incentives, increase the original price and then carry out price reduction promotions. Raw materials, labor, and freight rates have risen, and most hardware products have followed suit. Yangcheng, the boss of Jincheng Third Street, told the author: “In the past years, the price increase was slowly rising by three or five points, but this year’s situation is not the same. A big reason may be that the ex-factory price of the products in the past year is basically only affected by the rise and fall of raw materials. After the Spring Festival, the artificial wages have risen too much. The manufacturers have begun to implement substantial price increases. It is also out of frustration." Yang said that raw materials are rising, not completely raised by market demand, but also factors of hot money speculation. However, the general increase in labor wages is a national trend, so it is difficult for manufacturers to raise the ex-factory price in the reality that cost pressures are greatly increased. Dealer analysis, Hardware City as the country's largest hardware product distribution center, the annual hardware product throughput is very amazing. The raw materials of hardware products are mainly steel, iron, copper, aluminum, zinc and other non-ferrous metals. Since 2011, almost all of these metal raw materials prices have risen. Coupled with the continuous increase in domestic refined oil prices, coal prices are also very unstable and the artificial wages have risen sharply, which has caused hardware companies to face very large cost pressures. The price increase has become the most effective but most helpless choice in the hardware industry. It is expected that the price of hardware products will continue to rise in the next period of time, and the increase is expected to be around 10% to 20%. In the second half of the year, with the stability of raw materials and labor wages, the price of hardware products will remain relatively stable.
