Piano Industry in Global and China Markets Region 2014-2017
Global and China Piano Industry Report, 2014-2017

Summary
Global Piano Industry, which originated from Europe in the 18th century, has begun to shift to China since the late 1990s. At present, China has been the world’s largest piano producer, with the output for 2013 hitting 376,000 units, making up 79.6% of the global total.
Meanwhile, the piano demand in China has been growing, with the year 2013’s ownership of pianos per 100 urban households approaching 3.0 units. It is projected that this figure will rise to 3.25 units by 2015 and 4.0 units by 2020.
Driven by a boom in both output and sales volume, China’s pianos showed a steady growth in imports, with a CAGR of 29.3% during 2008-2013. In Jan.-Jul.2014, China imported a total of 75,000 pianos, up 15.4% from a year earlier.
In view of a certain gap in piano ownership between China and developed countries (20-30 pianos per 100 households) and the resultant great potential for growth, some well-known foreign manufacturers such as Yamaha and Steinway have sped up their layout in China.
Yamaha entered the Chinese market in 2002 and has so far established 6 subsidiaries in China, including a piano manufacturer -- Hangzhou Yamaha Musical Instruments that produced 67,000 pianos in 2013.
Steinway, which ventured into the Chinese market in 2013, mainly operates the following brands: Steinway, Boston, Essex, and Lang Lang. In 2013, the company’s piano revenue reached USD220 million, up 3.6% year on year, including revenue of USD15.6 million from China, an increase of 21.3% compared with the previous year.

    Today’s world is facing strong influence of globalization in each and every aspect of our lives. It is expressed through: free trade agreements, foreign direct investments, international trade, facilitated movement of labour, capital and resources, as well as a strong competition that eventually gives more power to customers. In addition, it resulted in the economic boom of the developing countries, with substantial dominance of China that mainly benefit from their massive labour force, its low cost and high comparative efficiency. This phenomenon has impacted all industries around the world. In particular, furniture production is going through a trend of moving to China that “in 2002 accounted for 10% of world’s total furniture output and 40% of US furniture market”.

If the company chooses to move operations, what type of investment mode should he choose: subcontracting, wholly or partly owned one. If not, what changes should be made in their strategy to take advantage of their geographic location, organizational benefits and political benefits to outweigh the low cost environment offered by the China option.…
