Redefining The Home Retail Experience

New Highs And Highlights Under The Epidemic

The beginning of new retail is commonly perceived as some business models landed by Ali. With several years of market incubation, omnichannel + multi-format + multi-scene has become the strategic play of head players. For eksempel, retail giants Walmart China, KFC China, and RuiXing Coffee through digital technology applications. From the performance point of view, it has driven the high growth of their online sales, and the technology extended behind them has become a powerful catalyst for a brand evolution.

I 2021, home furnishing company ARROW pioneered XR innovation technology for the home furnishing industry. In the new product launch held at Dubai Expo 2021, they launched the Dubai Expo’s new products and global strategy in a comprehensive manner. In the second half of the year, ARROW brand day in Dubai Expo global online launch, they let the global viewers experience the Chinese Pavilion of Dubai Expo in the United Arab Emirates across time and space through the “Kina + Overseas” dual-venue. The application of innovative technology has provided new ideas for corporate events limited by the epidemic, which makes it a powerful catalyst for a brand evolution.

If new technologies are changing the value of high-end brands, deeply transforming marketing and sales, services, and brand assets, then scenario experience, as a way of expression in the post-epidemic era, will test the super experience terminals laid out by brands offline.

Whether online or offline consumer experience, the future will inevitably revolve closely around scenes. Only with real scene experience can users make purchase decisions. I 2021, ARROW Home opened its first experience center nationwide, and the global experience research center, which covers an area of 4,000 kvadratmeter, was open for visits.

In ARROW Home Experience Center, the whole category of sanitary ware, tiles and customized home furnishings are connected to create the whole scenario of bathroom space, kitchen space, bedroom, living room and balcony to provide a one-stop shopping experience for consumers. And in ARROW Home Experience Research Center, you can experience the scientific simulation restoration of scenes through the planning, development and application of experiential research equipment and instruments. You can also study in depth the real reflection of users in different home spaces and product application scenarios. We also continue to improve the quality of products and the comfort of using innovative sanitary products through data statistics and analysis, based on the real feedback of user experience and continue to optimize the positive user experience to meet the real needs of users.

Wu Sheng, the founder of Scene Lab, mentioned a concept: the product solves a problem, while the scene continues to solve the problem. People are the reactor of the environment. In different contexts, there will be different preferences, which in turn will produce different behavior. The only way for home brands to make the brand also become a scene asset is to surround the whole home with the whole scene resources, and the brand value information will continue to pour into the users.

And currently, with the intense competition in the market, the interpenetration and integration between industries have been very intense. The systemic combination of ARROW’s large home experience center and research experience center allows consumers to realize “single store single product” from “single store single product” til “single store full product”: from single store, you can only buy a single product category, to the one-stop purchase of all the soft furnishings, hard furnishings and other essential decoration; from the original finished standard furniture to the current full design of any style of customization. For the user, the one-stop configuration is more intimate and convenient. Naturally, there will be more inclination when choosing.

Imidlertid, whether the value of user trust can be established in a real sense depends on the brand’s ability to develop. I 2021, ARROWARROW and Huawei reached cooperation, ARROW Home and Huawei will cooperate in the field of HarmonyOS Connect and whole house smart scene intelligence. They form an all-around partnership in products, teknologi, channels, marketing, branding and artificial intelligence to jointly provide users with a new experience in the whole scene of the smart home. According to GFK consumer trend research data, intelligent and humanized user demand has reached 85.5%. Obviously, intelligence and humanization will become the immediate needs of families. It can be predicted that after the epidemic, intelligence will be an important trend in the home industry. ARROW home can voice control intelligent bathroom, a full set of bathroom products equipped with smart chips, and then through Huawei HarmonyOS Connect to achieve full-scene interaction, voice control, product interconnection, and health management.

Home companies from Hong Kong told Kitchen News that ARROW Home experience center has been at the cutting edge compared to them. Based on ARROW Home Group’s strong supply chain system and large-scale production capacity of its own factories as a leading enterprise in the industry, they provide strong support for users’ “big home + big consumption” erfaring.

The consumption scenario of rich diversification and future experience mode is based on ARROW Home’s deeper understanding and insight of the scene users. This is also a deeper understanding and value distribution of “family time, family space and members’ attention” in the post-epidemic era, such as home, bad, office and party: a smart bathroom with social functions; a restaurant with more leisure and entertainment; and a living room for home office. As lifestyles and work styles change in the post-epidemic era, more and more consumers are spending more time living and playing at home. The number and quality of scenes developed by brands will re-establish the user value chain.
