·Guangzhou launches parallel import vehicle pilots, market pattern or accelerated transformation
Recently, the Guangzhou Municipal Commission of Commerce officially issued the "Notice of the Nansha District Administrative Committee of the Guangdong Free Trade Zone on the Pilot Project of Automobile Parallel Imports in the Nansha New District of Guangzhou (Guangdong) Free Trade Zone" (hereinafter referred to as the "Notice"). Organize pilot projects for parallel imports of automobiles in the Nansha area of ​​the Free Trade Zone. This means that after Guangzhou became Shanghai, Shenzhen and Tianjin, China's fourth city launched a pilot project for parallel imported cars. However, compared with other pilot cities, Guangzhou implemented two sets of entry threshold conditions, which lowered the barriers to entry in the free trade zone. The analysis pointed out that in just six months, parallel imports have been rolled out in four major cities across the country. With the gradual improvement of relevant policies and supporting systems, the channel layout of existing imported vehicles will be accelerated, thus reversing the transformation of the market structure. Trial two sets of programs to lower the threshold According to the "Notice", parallel import pilot enterprises must meet two sets of conditions. One of them is basically the same as Shanghai, Shenzhen, Tianjin and other places. It requires more than 5 years of auto sales business. It has been profitable for the last 3 years. The sales of automobiles in the previous financial year exceeded 400 million yuan. However, another set of conditions has lowered the threshold. It only requires more than three years of auto import business and has continuous profitability in the last two years. In the previous financial year, the number of imported cars exceeded 70 million or the number of imported cars exceeded 150. . "From the perspective of access conditions, Guangzhou is relatively flexible. The lower threshold is conducive to the entry of some trading companies mainly engaged in automobile imports. It can effectively develop the source of parallel imported cars and avoid the situation that some pilot cities have no cars to sell. "A market person in Guangzhou who operates imported cars said that this will attract companies other than traditional large-scale dealers to enter the market and increase the activity of the parallel imported car market. It is understood that since the release of the "Notice", a number of large-scale dealers in Guangzhou have already filed declarations, and more than 50 car dealers of different sizes have conducted related business consultations. According to the planning of the Nansha Free Trade Zone, the number of parallel imported cars will reach 10,000 next year. "From the perspective of the target, 10,000 vehicles will not be easy to realize next year. From the pilot situation in Shanghai and Shenzhen, it is basically in a state of 'thunder and big rain.' According to public data, Shenzhen only sold. More than 160 vehicles.†Market participants pointed out that mainly some pilot cities do not have parallel import experience, and they need a certain break-in period, which leads to market sales not as good as expected. To this end, the "Notice" implements two different programs to reduce the barriers to entry, and to include more resources in the enterprise. It also clearly states that the pilot enterprises must commit to the parallel import of automobiles within three months after the registration is completed. The analysis pointed out that the Nansha Free Trade Zone's move was to absorb the experience of the pilot cities of parallel imported cars. After some pilot enterprises applied for business, there was no relatively mature resources and the business could not be carried out. In the parallel import vehicle pilot area, the pilot enterprises are required to implement the policies of quality assurance, after-sales service, automobile three-pack, and average fuel sales volume. The Guangzhou Nansha Free Trade Zone is basically the same as the other three cities, requiring registered auto dealers. It is the main body of product quality traceability. It is necessary to remind consumers of consumption risks. Imported automobiles must comply with the national quality and safety standards, mandatory requirements of technical specifications, and so on. Imported car market pattern change According to statistics, this year China's parallel imports of automobiles will reach 200,000 units, nearly double the year-on-year; by 2020, it will reach 400,000 units, accounting for more than 20% of China's total automobile imports. Among them, Tianjin and Dalian account for more than 80% of the total. Today, Guangzhou Nansha has started parallel import of automobiles. It is also the second time in China, after Shanghai, Shenzhen and Tianjin, the fourth city has officially laid out parallel imported cars. This will speed up the improvement of the overall layout of China's parallel imported cars, and form the three major regional layouts of North China, East China and South China in the eastern coastal areas. The analysis pointed out that from the point of view of sales, the pilot of some parallel imported cars can not be said to be very successful now, and the sales volume is very low. However, from the perspective of the future, with the gradual rationalization of policies, parallel imported cars will show a better development trend. However, in contrast to the good expectations of parallel imported cars, according to customs data, China imported a total of 96,000 vehicles in April, down 26.5% from the same period of the previous year; the total vehicle exports were 68,000, down from the same period of the previous year. 13.4%. From January to April, the total number of imported vehicles was 354,300, a decrease of 19.3% over the same period of the previous year. Market participants pointed out that the rise and fall of the data of imported car companies indicates that the market pattern is undergoing major changes, and the traditional general agent will have to make adjustments under the pressure of the market turning cold. At present, in order to speed up the development of related businesses, various pilot cities have also made continuous moves. It is understood that Guangzhou Nansha has established a cooperative relationship with Dalian Port in order to accelerate the development of parallel import business of the automobile. The two parties established Guangzhou Jingang Automobile International Trading Co., Ltd. to jointly launch parallel import automobile business in Nansha Free Trade Zone, fully borrowing Dalian Port in parallel. Experience and resource advantages in the imported automotive business.
