The market share of offline retail sales of range hoods and gas stoves of the company was the first in the industry, and the market share of online retail sales was the first and third. In addition to the steady growth of traditional categories, emerging categories also achieved high growth.

Due to the default of due commercial acceptance bills by some fine decoration business customers, the company’s large amount of bad debt provision dragged down the company’s performance.
