Industry core view:
In December, Alibaba's online sales data were released. Taking advantage of the marketing publicity of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games, Inner Mongolia Yili Industrial Group Co.Ltd(600887) revenue showed a bright performance, driving the online sales of the dairy industry to rise sharply year-on-year this month; Affected by the tiktok outbreak around the world, the rise of the new online channels such as Kwai Chung, the US group, the fast hand and the spoil and so on, have diverted the flow of the platform, and the sales of other industries of food and beverage have declined to varying degrees. In Baijiu, the volume and price of liquor decreased and the concentration of beer increased. Among the popular products, the sales performance of leisure snacks is poor, the sales and prices of dairy products rise, and the price of condiments remains basically stable; The markets for leisure snacks and condiments are relatively scattered, and the dairy industry has accelerated integration, with obvious head effect. Under the background of rising raw material costs, the average price of dairy industry continues to rise. We are optimistic about the multi-channel layout and diversified marketing of leading brands in various sectors in the medium and long term. It is suggested to pay attention to the leaders in subdivided sectors with certain pricing power, as well as dairy enterprises that are expected to open up the rising market due to the superposition of price rise logic of winter Olympic marketing.
