2018 was a highly unusual year in China's economic development history. The US-China trade war, economic downturn, capped online traffic growth, and an aging population all intensified uncertainty in the external market environment. At the same time, changes in the broader environment have significantly reduced liquidity in China's capital markets. A large number of internet companies have faced financing difficulties due to the capital winter, leading to capital chain ruptures, closures, and defaults. Returning to the industry, after rapid growth from 2013 to 2017, FMCG B2B officially entered a deep-water zone in 2018. Some poorly managed platforms continued to close down last year. According to incomplete statistics from New Distribution, more than 20 FMCG B2B platforms were shut down in 2018 alone. Surviving B2B platforms have been continuously adjusting their business models, optimizing supply chain capabilities, and even starting to experiment with related innovative businesses. Not only internet companies, but traditional FMCG enterprises are also having a tough time. Brand manufacturers have become accustomed to stagnant sales, lack of product innovation, and rising channel costs, which have been troubling executives and owners of brand companies and distributors. Some manufacturers are actively trying various new models and tactics, but in the face of huge existing interests, transformation remains merely a slogan. Despite the harsh external economic environment and increasing operational pressure, it is undeniable that China remains one of the most innovative and consumption-potential countries in the world. With the proliferation of mobile internet and consumption upgrades, the ways people connect and consume have undergone subtle changes. Almost all practitioners in 2018 had a basic consensus: the digital transformation of the entire industry chain and network is an inevitable trend. In this context, innovative retail scenarios and new business formats based on digital supply chains will emerge in large numbers in the coming years. Facing the complex market environment, how should companies break through the current difficulties of business operations and growth in 2019? And find specific ideas and methods for transformation? New Distribution will hold the 2019 (5th) FMCG + Internet Conference during the Chengdu Spring Sugar Fair from March 16 to March 18. This conference will focus on the theme "Breakthrough" and engage in in-depth discussions with numerous brand owners, supply chain service providers, distributors, and retailers. Compared to previous conferences, this summit will be fully upgraded. In addition to original topics such as channel innovation, city distribution logistics, and distributor transformation, it will add multiple parallel forums on new marketing cases, IP + FMCG empowerment, community group buying, and innovative retail. Through three days of ten high-density, high-quality expert sharing and exchanges, we believe every brand owner and distributor can learn the latest business models, expert insights, and practical methods, finding new tools and approaches for their own breakthrough in 2019 and returning to the track of rapid growth.
