    The fierce competition from both existing competitors in ODM industry and the substitute EMS industry further drives the profitability low. The large manufactory capacity has resulted in ODMs competing with each other for more market shares, which pushed the price down. EMS also provides clients manufacturing, sourcing, procurement, inventory management services. EMS usually doesn’t maintain Intellectual Property and are not likely to compete with OEM clients.

    The benefits of using independently owned specialty dealers and hardware stores is that the dealer has specific knowledge of certain products and carried only certain products. They are considered experts based on their reputation as an outdoor equipment dealer, and can therefore provide the end customer with the knowledge necessary to make the appropriate purchase. In Stihl’s case this becomes critical in the sale of its product line. Since Stihl never compromises on quality, its prices are generally higher than a majority of their competitors. The sales staff can effectively educate the consumer on knowledge of the product, when to use them, when to choose an alternative, which sizes and features were better suited for which application, and how a product might fit with…
