Feiyue de Mexico S.A. de C.V.

Mexico

Feiyue de Mexico S.A. de C.V., established in 1996, is one of the first enterprises promoting China's sewing machineries in markets abroad; it has built a sales and services network spanning 90% of the apparel manufacture areas in Mexico, developed more than 160 distributors and agents, and over 500 end-users including apparel factories, either large or small, footwear factories, suitcase, bag and furniture manufacturers, automobile seat and upholstery factories.

In active response to the ever-changing high-tech globally, it has realized the transition from product-oriented operation to market-oriented one, then from brick-and-mortar sales to online marketing. At present, it has expanded its sales across Mexico, with a dual mode of virtual and physical stores. Moreover, it has signed up for the most influential e-commerce platform in the Americas, Mercado Libre, and opened a YouTube channel, for the purpose of uploading the latest product profiles, which has substantially improved users' trust in and satisfaction with China's sewing machineries.

The once-in-a-century Covid-19 pandemic has dealt a heavy blow to each and every walk of life, and the sewing sector is no exception, in which lots of enterprises have closed or suspended operation. Due to the stay-at-home regulation by the government, most of the businesses were running with less than 50% capacity. The increasingly expensive raw materials and soaring freight costs have posed a grave threat to the manufacture sector, and forced many sewing machinery businesses to meditate on shifting operation mode, including equipment upgrade and renovation. 5 years ago, merely 15% of small and medium-sized sewing machinery enterprises in Mexico adopted electromechanical sewing machine, while in 2021, 85% of them did so, and more businesses intend to invest in electromechanical intelligent sewing equipment that is energy-saving and highly automated.

It hopes that CISMA, fully making use of its strength and influence, can hold international distributors summit or seminar regularly or otherwise, so as to better understand their demands and advices for the sewing industry, and share their stories of success. In particular, it creates an opportunity to raise common problems in this sector requiring immediate solutions through collecting the feedback of clients in different markets on marketing method, product quality, technical performance and solutions, equipment O&M, etc., which is conducive to assist China's sewing sector with enhancing its overall manufacture capacity.
