Pay attention to the sinking market space of kitchen electricity. In the seventh census, the township population is about 500 million, accounting for 36% of China’s total population. The ownership of kitchen appliances is relatively low and the market space is broad. Among them, the ownership of microwave ovens, range hoods and water heaters per 100 households in the rural market is only 19.7, 30.9 and 76.2. In terms of the channel structure under the kitchen line, chain (national / regional), brand stores, retail stores, building materials stores, cabinet electrical stores and department stores account for 38%, 22%, 13%, 13%, 8% and 5% respectively. The front decoration channel has a good momentum of development, and the building materials home and designer channels will become important sales channels in the kitchen and bathroom industry.

It is suggested to pay attention to: Ecovacs Robotics Co.Ltd(603486) , Beijing Roborock Technology Co.Ltd(688169) , Marssenger Kitchenware Co.Ltd(300894) , Zhejiang Entive Smart Kitchen Appliance Co.Ltd(300911) , Hangzhou Robam Appliances Co.Ltd(002508) , Gree Electric Appliances Inc.Of Zhuhai(000651) , Haier Smart Home Co.Ltd(600690) , Midea Group Co.Ltd(000333)
