Webinar: How to develop and optimize your production and distribution network in China

As the world’s second largest market with continued above average growth figures, China offers huge potential, despite the trade disputes with particularly the US. But the landscape for doing successful business in China is changing dramatically. From a supply chain perspective, demand is still growing fast and customers have to be reached via various channels ranging from distributors, retail and department stores to direct e-commerce deliveries and e-com platforms like Tencent and JD.com. From a manufacturing angle, companies are reviewing their manufacturing footprint in China, reconsidering their East Coast focus, and looking at more cost-effective alternatives.

This webinar addresses these topics, which are on top of the agenda of many manufacturing and supply chain leaders.

Specific questions which will be addressed in this webinar:

• What are current and future developments in the Chinese economy, markets and regions?
• How are the existing manufacturing hotspots in the Eastern part of the country as well as new locations further West developing?
• Is your current China supply chain ready to scale for significant volume growth and/or to aim bypassing distributors? Is it better to deliver via an e-com platform than operating your own e-com fulfillment solution?
• How to develop a robust and flexible distribution solution for the Chinese market? Where to locate your main distribution center? How many regional DC’s do you need when going direct to e-com customers?
• How to optimize your company’s manufacturing footprint in China/Asia from a Cost, Quality of the Business Environment and Risk perspective?
• How to select the optimal location for a new manufacturing plant or distribution center?
