WinChannel's Digital Gambit to Revitalize Rural China (A)
內容大綱
This case presents an overview of China's FMCG industry in the early 2010s from the perspective of WinChannel, an information service provider to major FMCG companies in China. It describes the three major distribution channels (i.e., Routes-to-Market) and focuses on the challenges facing the traditional trade channel through which FMCG companies provide their products to millions of "mom-and-pop" stores (i.e., small, independently owned and operated convenience stores), especially in rural parts of China. In early 2015, Zhen (Andrew) Cui, Founder and CEO of WinChannel, is exploring how he can help improve the reach and efficiency of the traditional trade channel and wonders if the emerging online/mobile B2B FMCG platforms offer the best solution for the increasingly digitized FMCG retail industry in China.
