Recently, IDC released a quarterly tracking report on tablet computers, showing that China's tablet market shipments in Q3 2020 increased by 21.7% year on year, the highest year-on-year growth in a single quarter since 2014. As tablet sales continue to soar, "out of stock" is the key word in the global tablet market. In the face of sudden market demand, Gome guarantees users' shopping experience and achieves "continuous supply". And this, Gome's strong supply chain support cannot be ignored.
In fact, the signs of a "shortage" of tablets appeared as early as the end of 2019. Global demand for tablets surged in late 2019 and early 2020 as the pandemic spawned new ways of working and learning. But the industry seems not to have prepared for this unexpected situation, leading to a shortage of production capacity throughout the year, affecting all aspects of tablet supply, increasing the price of components and the price of finished products.
After 34 years of deep industry development, Gome has established a strong self-owned supply chain system and established a profound relationship of trust with many well-known brands. Under such circumstances, Gome, with its keen market insight, accurately predicted the market situation, grasped the market trend, prepared goods in advance, and made emergency preparations. Based on the win-win cooperation between Gome and the brand for many years, Gome is trusted to get the goods in the first time to ensure adequate supply and avoid the phenomenon of stock shortage. At the same time, based on the advantages of its own supply chain, Gome integrates the existing resources of the whole chain, so as to ensure the quality and stabilize the price.
Since putting forward the strategy of "Home · Life" in 2017, Gome has continuously internalized its own capabilities and successfully built a shared retail mode featuring online platforms and both online and offline platforms, which has greatly improved the operational efficiency of its supply chain. Now, in the face of short-term "shortage" of tablet computers, Gome in the strong supply chain continues to enable sufficient supplies, performance, and has been praised by users.
These are only part of Gome's strong supply chain. Gome's integrated layout based on the supply chain is not only reflected in the control of the market, but also reflected in the upgrade of services.
"Pop-up delivery" is the icing on the cake
This year, Gome further implemented the digital local retail strategy, adding a "store" channel in Gome APP and moving offline stores across the country to online. Relying on the mode of "one store, one page", Gome has realized the service mode of "real person instant online answer + fast delivery of goods + in-store and in-home service", which has greatly improved the user experience and logistics efficiency, and redefined the service standards of the industry.
On the one hand, through the professional online instant shopping guide service, users can communicate with Gome employees in real time and solve all kinds of questions immediately. On the other hand, Gome further upgraded its services. For tablet computers and other 3C digital and small household appliances, Gome launched the "flash store delivery" service, which takes offline stores as the core and provides instant delivery services for customers within 3-5 kilometers. After receiving orders on the platform, Gome uses stores as "pre-warehouse" for delivery, which can be delivered within 30 minutes at the earliest to meet users' immediate needs.
At present, Gome's "flash store delivery" service has covered the whole country. Behind the high standard service, the network coverage of nearly 3,000 stores and more than 100,000 workers are strong backing, which is also the embodiment of Gome's supply chain advantages.
Gome's more abundant supply of goods, guaranteed quality and attentive service has never disappointed people. Get on the Gome APP and snap up the tight supply of tablets and other really cheap and good products. I believe it can meet your many needs for a better life!
