ウィズ・アフターコロナ時代における中国の消費変化と企業経営のダイナミックな調整
中国の消費市場は、ポストコロナ期も依然として不安定な状態が続き、所得の減少、消費者信頼感の低迷、政策の不透明感が重荷となっています。消費者はより合理的な行動を取るようになり、生活必需品や健康、品質を重視する一方で、購買行動は明確にオンラインへとシフトしています。需要低迷が長期化する環境下において、企業には利益重視かつレジリエンスの高い事業モデルへの転換が求められています。

中国オンライン人材紹介市場の市場構造
中国のオンライン採用市場は、採用活動のモバイル化やデータドリブン化を背景に急速に成長しています。大手プラットフォームは、規模の優位性やAIを活用したマッチング機能によってトラフィックを獲得し、市場を主導しています。一方で、多様化する労働ニーズを背景に、特定領域に特化したニッチ型プラットフォームにも成長余地が残されています。競争の軸は、テクノロジーやデータ活用力に加え、エコシステムにおけるパートナーシップへと移行しつつあります。

中国ヘアケア市場インサイト: ヘアカラー市場における日本ブランドのプレゼンス
中国のヘアケア市場は急速に成長している一方で、国内に圧倒的なチャンピオンブランドはまだ存在していません。ヘアカラー分野では、安全性に対する高い評価とオンラインでの強い販売力を背景に、日本ブランドが優位なポジションを確立しています。今後は、非酸化型製品を中心に新たな成長機会が見込まれており、越境ECを通じて安全性を重視する消費者層へアプローチできる点が重要な成長ドライバーとなっています。
