HONG KONG - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Hong Kong has a free market economy, highly dependent on international trade and finance - the value of goods and services trade, including the sizable share of re-exports, is about four times GDP. Hong Kong's open economy left it exposed to the global economic slowdown that began in 2008. Although increasing integration with China, through trade, tourism, and financial links, helped it to make an initial recovery more quickly than many observers anticipated, it again faces a possible slowdown as exports to the Euro zone and US slump. The Hong Kong government is promoting the Special Administrative Region (SAR) as the site for Chinese renminbi (RMB) internationalization. Hong Kong residents are allowed to establish RMB-denominated savings accounts; RMB-denominated corporate and Chinese government bonds have been issued in Hong Kong; and RMB trade settlement is allowed. The territory far exceeded the RMB conversion quota set by Beijing for trade settlements in 2010 due to the growth of earnings from exports to the mainland. RMB deposits grew to roughly 7.8% of total system deposits in Hong Kong by the end of 2011, an increase of over 59% since the beginning of the year. The government is pursuing efforts to introduce additional use of RMB in Hong Kong financial markets and is seeking to expand the RMB quota. The mainland has long been Hong Kong's largest trading partner, accounting for about half of Hong Kong's exports by value. Hong Kong's natural resources are limited, and food and raw materials must be imported. As a result of China's easing of travel restrictions, the number of mainland tourists to the territory has surged from 4.5 million in 2001 to 28 million in 2011, outnumbering visitors from all other countries combined. Hong Kong has also established itself as the premier stock market for Chinese firms seeking to list abroad. In 2011 mainland Chinese companies constituted about 43% of the firms listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and accounted for about 56% of the Exchange's market capitalization. During the past decade, as Hong Kong's manufacturing industry moved to the mainland, its service industry has grown rapidly. Growth slowed to 5% in 2011. Credit expansion and tight housing supply conditions caused Hong Kong property prices to rise rapidly in 2010 and inflation to rise 5.3% in 2011. Lower and middle income segments of the population are increasingly unable to afford adequate housing. Hong Kong continues to link its currency closely to the US dollar, maintaining an arrangement established in 1983.

GENERAL

 

Joyling Ltd. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Groupe Royer [Group/Royer] which is a France-based firm.

The Chairman and main shareholder of Royer is Jacques Louis Armand Royer.

The subject is a footwear trader.  It is responsible for the production and quality control.

Groupe Royer was originally specialized in the importation of footwear intended for Mass Market distribution.  It later diversified by incorporating sport shoes and city footwear into its field of activity.  The acquisition of well-known brands under license enabled the Group to expand and develop its offer, and to respond to the demand of new fields of distribution.

 

Some Figures About Royer Group:-

1,200 employees worldwide;

13,000 customers in 70 countries;

77,000 m² of offices and warehouses around the world;

310 million euros in turnover in 2011;

330 million euros in turnover planned for 2012; &

32 million pairs of shoes sold in 2011.

The Royer Group has been established in Asia for over 30 years and was a pioneer in sourcing for shoes.  As a result of this long experience it has been able to set up long-term relations with its industrial partners based on integrity and reliability.

While the Group has only a few production units in Europe, it has a very sound knowledge of the industrial fabric in Asia.  It has links with the production sites and works regularly with around 150 factories, which are selected for their know-how, specialization, production capacity, history and compliance with social and environmental standards.

Most of the products sold by the Royer Group now come from Southeast Asia (85%).  But out of a concern to divide up its production areas, the Group also uses other regions such as India, where leather-working is particularly sophisticated, and the countries of the Maghreb.

Now, the Group has set up three offices in China and one in India.

To make up for the geographical remoteness of the production sites, offices‑fully-fledged Group subsidiaries – have been set up close to the factories.  350 people (development managers, quality controllers, merchandisers, etc.) work to ensure that production runs smoothly.  They are responsible for setting up the collections with the suppliers, quality control and delivery times, and work closely with the teams in France.

The main brands of the Sport Division of the Group are Converse and New Balance.

The main brands of the Junior Division of the Group are Kickers, Aster and Mod8.

The Fashion and Luxury Division is a relative newcomer to the Group’s divisions as it was created in its present form in 2010.  It was born out of a desire to pool expertise and structures around the Group’s fashion and luxury brands.

Within the fashion sector there is a differentiation between the license and distribution activities.  Here, Paul & Joe Sister, Chipie (license) and Bloch, Sperry Top-Sider, PF Flyer and Keds (distribution) offer court shoes, ankle boots, pumps and sneakers for an urban clientele, always at the cutting edge of fashion.  The Royer Group contributes its design, sourcing and distribution expertise, adapted to a demanding market and always on the lookout for the latest new products.

The luxury activity is focused on the Stephane Kélian and Charles Jourdan brands, which were bought in 2007 and 2008 respectively.  It stands out for the quality of its brands and its control over production.  The Royer Group runs a production unit dedicated solely to these two brands and a group of shops.  The result is a complete structure with diversified activities specially dedicated to the very singular world of luxury.

The subject is fully supported by the Group.

As the history of the subject is about 20 years in Hong Kong, on the whole, consider it good for normal business engagements.
