On April 18, Shao Jun, founder and chairman of China Cement Network, and his delegation visited Zhejiang Jianfeng Group Co., Ltd. and were warmly received by Jiang Xiaomeng, party secretary and chairman of Jianfeng Group, and Yu Jianhong, general manager of Jianfeng Group. The two sides had in-depth exchanges on the development trend of the cement industry.
Jianfeng Group started with cement. In the course of more than 60 years of development, it has continuously upgraded its connotation and expanded its extension, and has successively set foot in many industries. Finally, it has formed a business pattern of "two-wheel drive, two-wing development and complementary advantages", with cement and medicine as the main part and health products, trade and logistics as the supplement.
During the exchange, regarding the situation of the cement industry this year, Jianfeng Group believes that the downward trend of coal prices this year has reduced the cost pressure on cement enterprises, and the profits of the cement industry are expected to increase. In addition, the cement industry in the central and western regions will ease up compared with last year, while the eastern region will be greatly impacted by the downturn of real estate, and the recovery situation is still uncertain.
In terms of industry synergy, Jianfeng Group said that in areas with serious overcapacity, when the capacity utilization rate is below a limit, the effect of peak staggering production and collaborative self-discipline is significantly weakened. Faced with this situation, mergers and acquisitions of large enterprises and small enterprises, docking of large and small kilns, and government support to eliminate backward production capacity will be effective measures to solve the dilemma.
Faced with the complex industry situation, Jianfeng Group itself is constantly increasing technological transformation, reducing production energy consumption, improving labor productivity, reducing production costs, and enhancing the core competitiveness of enterprises.
In addition, during the exchange, both sides expressed the need to strengthen cooperation, give full play to their respective advantages and work together for the high-quality development of the cement industry.
