Today, a long-term customer shared a new plan with us:
to manufacture the metal frame locally in their own country, while continuing to source other key components from us and complete final assembly locally.
For many manufacturers, this kind of request may raise concerns about losing orders in the future. Some of our team members had similar worries.
However, our position was very clear:
**we fully support our customer’s plan to produce and assemble locally.**
The reasons are straightforward.
First, the product they plan to localize is an **older, mature design** that has been in the market for many years. The profit margin on such products is already relatively low. Supplying components instead of complete products has little negative impact on our overall profitability.
More importantly, our long-term competitiveness has never depended on a single old product —
**it depends on continuous innovation.**
We will keep developing new designs, new structures, and improved solutions. These new products cannot be localized immediately by customers. During this process, we remain their key supplier and long-term partner.
In fact, supporting local assembly brings long-term benefits:
* Customers become more competitive in their local markets
* Our role evolves from product supplier to solution partner
* We can focus more on **high-value products and new designs**, rather than low-margin items
We firmly believe that strong partnerships are not built by holding customers back, but by **growing together**.
As long as we keep innovating and creating value, cooperation will only become stronger over time.
