Analysis and judgment
Latest views on the overall retail market:
For retail enterprises, the performance of 70 large and medium-sized holidays in the whole year will largely determine the incremental space of the whole year. At the beginning of the year, we mainly focused on the consumption of new year’s day in early January and the consumption of Spring Festival in late January and early February. Based on our previous analysis, in normal years, the proportion of the sales volume of the Spring Festival Golden Week (seven days from New Year’s Eve to the sixth day of the first lunar month) in the total social consumption from January to February of that year has increased year by year. By 2019, the share has exceeded 15%, and by 2021, the share has decreased to about 11%. Affected by many factors such as the local Spring Festival and the fluctuation of the epidemic situation, it has declined, but its important position can not be ignored; In addition, the growth rate of retail sales during the Spring Festival largely represents the growth limit of social consumption from January to February.
At present, the Ministry of Commerce has not released the retail consumption statistics under the 7-day time dimension of the National Spring Festival Golden Week, but it can be seen from the existing cross-sectional data that the growth level of this year’s Spring Festival is lower than that of the previous 7-day small and long holiday (i.e. the National Day holiday in 2021 is basically the same or slightly higher), but it has dropped to a certain extent compared with the performance of this year’s new year’s day. On the one hand, in the context of epidemic prevention and control, small-scale epidemic fluctuations have occurred in many places. At the same time, multiple factors such as the advocacy of local New Year celebrations since last year have been superimposed. The overall consumption continues the characteristics of less contact and less aggregation. The performance of supermarket compulsory channels and online channels for purchasing new year goods and daily necessities is more stable; On the other hand, the third day of last year was Valentine’s day. Although it was extended to the 14th day of this year, it was actually close to the Spring Festival holiday. Therefore, in addition to traditional new year goods, the sales performance of jewelry, beauty makeup and other goods is also worth looking forward to.
On the whole, consumption on New Year’s day and Spring Festival this year has basically achieved a stable start. The current consumer market environment and policy environment are relatively positive and optimistic. With the further promotion of China’s epidemic control effect and vaccine popularization, China’s economy is gradually returning to the previous growth track, residents’ consumer confidence and the vitality of China’s consumer market have recovered steadily, In 2022, the growth rate of social consumption will further approach the level before the epidemic. In order to reasonably guide consumer market expectations, combined with the “14th five year plan” business development plan of the Ministry of Commerce
In China’s 2025 consumer market development plan, we conservatively predict that the year-on-year growth rate of social consumption in 2022 will be about 4.5% – 5.5%.
Characteristics of emerging consumer markets: the structure of the consumer market of “small and long holidays” in the early stage has changed temporarily. Affected by the epidemic, the performance of emerging mass consumer tourism and films with excellent early performance is less optimistic than expected. Spring Festival travel is greatly affected by the traditional festival return celebration. On the one hand, the advocacy of the local new year is still the same. On the other hand, the repeated epidemic in Beijing, Shenzhen and other places years ago has limited the travel of some people to a certain extent. Combined with tourism data, it is difficult to find one ticket to travel during the Spring Festival and gradually become difficult to find one room in surrounding hotels; In terms of film viewing, it is affected by the reduction of film viewing passengers, the increase of ticket prices and other factors.
Structural features in traditional consumer markets:
(I) the high-end positioning of offline optional channels and the theme activities of the business district have played a positive role in restoring passenger flow and boosting sales. The passenger flow of 52 key business districts in Beijing exceeded 22.306 million person times. The ice and snow economy brought consumption explosion points to the Spring Festival. Shopping malls and shopping centers attracted a large number of passenger flow due to ice and snow elements. According to the data of cat hunting mobile, the average total passenger flow of shopping malls in Beijing increased by 11.3% month on month compared with the last weekend before the festival, nearly 30% month on month compared with the working day before the festival, reaching the peak on the third day of the new year, More than 4.1 million passengers, of which, taking Xidan business district as an example, the average total passenger flow per day increased by more than 30% month on month (32.6%) over the last weekend before the festival. Shanghai shopping mall all day long, time-honored builders and heritage projects in the Yu Garden mall, China, create a new “old flavor and new experience” special block in Shanghai. The highest daily passenger traffic volume exceeds 300 thousand during the festival. Shanghai world port has launched the “prestige China year”, the 7 day sales volume of festivals has increased by 30% over the pre holiday period. On site folk custom interaction, the sales of 7 days of the festival increased by more than 60% year-on-year. Taking the “2022 love fashion Chongqing Yuyue Spring Festival” as an opportunity, Chongqing jointly carried out international fashion shopping scenes such as Jiulong new business district, Vientiane city and Xicheng Tianjie, and carried out spring festival consumption activities with the theme of new year’s big fun price and new year’s market. During the festival, the retail sales of main business districts in the main city increased by 7.9% year-on-year. The local Chinese New Year is obviously good for department stores and shopping centers, especially in the first and second tier cities; Key business districts attract the rebound and growth of passenger flow in the form of theme activities, which plays a positive role in boosting sales and is the optimization of the supply side; Theme activities and other links that have a strong sense of experience and can bring additional value to consumers have gradually become the key means of drainage. Different activity themes can not only bring differentiated competitive advantages to the business district, but also link relevant brands and commodities to attract specific consumer groups to the store more specifically, so as to improve the possibility of actual consumption.
During the Spring Festival in 2022, the elements of the year of the tiger and the concept of ice and snow winter Olympics are superimposed. Relevant theme exhibitions, indoor ski resorts and official licensed retail stores of the Winter Olympics have become new highlights of drainage.
(II) online channels guarantee Spring Festival supply, with quality improvement and consumption guarantee as the main line. The Ministry of Commerce, together with the central network information office, the Ministry of industry and information technology, the State Administration of market supervision and other departments, jointly guided e-commerce and related enterprises to hold the “2022 national online New Year Festival” to provide the service of “Spring Festival does not close and new year goods are delivered to home”. According to the monitoring of the Ministry of Commerce, the general supply of necessities in local markets is sufficient, the price is generally stable, and the traditional new year goods, high-quality fresh Seasonal clothing, smart appliances, flowers, green plants and other commodities are sold well, time-honored restaurants and specialty restaurants are popular, skiing, skating and other ice and snow consumption are hot enough, and the consumer market has made a stable start; Among them, high-quality new year goods have become a hot spot of procurement, and consumption upgrading has created a better quality of life. At the same time, lifestyle leads the new trend of consumption. Taking prefabricated vegetables as an example, the sales have increased by 45.9% year-on-year. Smart appliances (such as mite remover, floor washer, smart projector and massage instrument) and whole house customization also have a good performance. The channel turnover of the live broadcast room of Taobao New Year’s festival increased by 20.5% compared with last year, and the number of transactions increased by 16% compared with last year. The core categories are women’s clothing, home decoration, food, 3C digital, jewelry, beauty makeup, mother and baby and other categories; According to the Spring Festival consumption data released by jd.com, as of the 5th, the turnover during the Spring Festival increased by more than 50% year-on-year. There was a strong demand for upgraded services. The turnover of life services, local play, car services, game / video services and maintenance increased by 287%, 206%, 148%, 109% and 77% year-on-year respectively.
(III) the duty-free consumption market is active, and promotional activities further promote the tax-free growth of outlying islands. According to the data released by Hainan Province, from January 30 to February 5, the total sales of 10 outlying island duty-free stores in the province were 1.983 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 144%, of which the duty-free sales were 1.82 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 153%; 277800 people went shopping duty-free, a year-on-year increase of 128%; The number of duty-free items purchased was 1651700, a year-on-year increase of 143%. During the Spring Festival, 10 off Island duty-free stores in Hainan launched consumption promotion activities one after another to activate the off Island duty-free market. Among them, activities such as “the blessing of the exemption is like a tiger”, the “Spring Festival welfare release” of China travel investment, the “GDF Spring Festival does not close” of Haifa control, the “blessing of the tiger” of China export service, and the anniversary celebration of the deep exemption of “being grateful for you all the way” were held one after another, Welcomed by consumers. Tax free consumption is active. Under the current environment, the epidemic still affects cross-border travel, and the return heat of overseas consumption remains unabated. The main tax-free consumer categories are still aimed at incense, alcohol, tobacco and electronic products.
(IV) the consumption promotion policy further releases the consumption potential of residents. Before the festival, the Ministry of Commerce has made relevant work arrangements. While guiding and urging all localities to implement the prevention and control measures of the epidemic situation, it can effectively ensure the market supply during the festival, better meet the residents’ consumption demand during the festival, not only prosper and activate the festival market atmosphere, but also effectively ensure the market supply. As an important means to promote consumption, while jointly holding various consumption promotion activities, local governments have not reduced the means of issuing consumption vouchers and digital RMB. Shenzhen, Guangdong (six commercial banks have issued 25 million yuan of digital RMB and launched the “100 plus 50” digital RMB reduction activity) Nanchang, Jiangxi Province (500000 yuan consumption coupons, directly driving consumption of 1 million yuan and indirectly driving consumption of 5 million yuan), Fuzhou, Fujian Province (more than 35 million consumption coupons, with an amount of more than 550 million yuan), Xiamen, Fujian Province (3.15 million new year consumption coupons, with an amount of more than 52 million yuan) The first round of consumption coupons issued by Yichang City and Yichang City, totaling more than RMB 6.702 million, and the first round of consumption coupons issued by Yichang City and Yichang City, totaling more than RMB 6.702 million, were issued by Yichang City, Hubei Province Relevant preferential policies have been implemented in Huzhou, Zhejiang Province (100 million yuan new year warm heart coupon) and other places. The issuance of consumer vouchers and digital RMB benefits the people, boost consumers’ consumption ability and enthusiasm from the demand side, and constantly leverage the multiplier effect; In addition, some consumer vouchers have specific consumption direction guidance, which has clearly driven the sales growth of relevant channels and categories such as local supermarkets, shopping malls, cultural tourism, catering and accommodation, 3C household appliances and automobiles to a certain extent.
