Wal-Mart's own brand
Wal-Mart has been actively developing and promoting Wal-Mart's "own brand" in the China market, and has launched its own brand products with "good quality and low price", covering major categories such as food, household goods, clothing and footwear. At the same time, private brand goods are directly produced by manufacturers, which makes the price more competitive than similar goods.
Wal-Mart has 40 own brands in the world, 23 of which are global brands, and has developed more than 6.5438+0.9 million products worldwide. Wal-Mart's three main brands are Supervalue (translated from Chinese into Yi Hui), which mainly covers food and non-food; Mainstays mainly covers household items; Simply put, the basic model mainly covers clothing products. Due to the omission of many intermediate links, private brand products usually have obvious competitive advantages of low price and high quality.
