The theme of this "Awards Ceremony" is: Unite Industry Strength, Promote Brand Building, Achieve Scientific Development.
As a traditional livelihood industry in China, the laundry industry holds a special and irreplaceable position in the trade and service sector; it plays an important role in prospering the market, serving the public, absorbing employment, and promoting urbanization. Currently, the characteristics of the laundry industry's development are: standardization and normalization construction are on track; infrastructure centered on education and training is deeply rooted; integrity construction focusing on improving service quality has reached industry consensus; local industry associations have effectively played their roles as "windows, platforms, and bridges," and industry performance has significantly increased compared to the previous year. At present, there are nearly 300,000 laundry shops (factories) above designated size in China, employing about 1.5 million people, with an annual washing capacity of nearly 3 billion pieces (items), and annual revenue exceeding 60 billion yuan. It should be noted that China's laundry industry has strong adaptability and broad market space for development.
We must maintain sufficient clarity and understanding of the current status of the laundry industry's development and construction, scientifically plan the overall development of the industry, and unite industry strength to expand the laundry market and serve the livelihood cause. Therefore, the overall goal for the near-term development of China's laundry industry is: to form well-known laundry enterprises with independent intellectual property rights in brand building; to gradually narrow the gap with the world's advanced level in laundry equipment manufacturing; to increase the technological content and reduce the technical differences with foreign similar products in chemical and auxiliary material supply; to establish a complete talent training system in cultural education; to advocate and strengthen the concepts of "green operation" and "green consumption" in environmental protection construction; to strengthen system construction in standards and regulations, forming a healthy and orderly market order. Through efforts, achieve: orderly competition in the market, effective services under reasonable layout, industry upgrading led by independent innovation, equipment renewal under energy conservation and environmental protection, and healthy development under a complete system.
The "China Laundry Industry Awards Ceremony" is a phased summary and improvement of the above goals and a demonstration of the role of industry associations in actively promoting industry development. We sincerely hope that through this event, we can motivate practitioners to enhance their image, increase social recognition of outstanding enterprises and industry leaders, guide industry enterprises to strive for excellence, further improve product (service) quality, and make positive contributions to the smooth implementation of the national service industry's "12th Five-Year Plan" and the sound, rapid, and scientific development of the laundry industry.
