    Haier's Case

    • 2554 Words
    • 11 Pages

    The strategic problem of Haier is inconsistency between its target - to become a leading U.S. appliance brand with not typical “made in China” reputation, and its actions that have developed perception of Haier as a brand of comparable or acceptable quality at low price: the U.S. market entry through a niche in a price-driven category by offering products with specific features, pricing its differentiated product in high-end segment lower than competitors do, communicating its products mostly to retailers, not consumers, which has led to low brand awareness among end-users in large standard refrigerator segment. Haier may resolve this problem by (1) improving and strengthening its current competitive position in a niche market (for current situation see Exhibit 3), (2) challenging share leaders in large standard refrigerator market, or (3) entering a niche of deluxe refrigerators.…

This is why Haier needs to sell their appliances at a lower cost to attract replacement buyers to purchase their appliances instead of the lead competitors.…

    1. Haier achieved its success by familiarizing with the brand and competing with the major established brands for a larger market share. Haier corporate strategy is driven by international growth through creating brand awareness and recognition, meeting consumers’ needs and increasing market shares in different segments. Expending abroad is a response to competition within the domestic market both from imports and local products. Haier started ‘taking the fight to the enemy’ by breaking into the U.S. market using a combination of quality, price and local manufacturing. On product strategy and investment aspect, Haier should also follow the principle of “Easy to Hard”.
