2.1 Economic Environment
Economic environment consists the factors that could affect customers’ buying power and spending pattern (Kotler, Brown, Adam, Armstrong, 2001). In Bartlett, Ghoshal, and Birkinshaw’s (2004) perspective, it refers to the country’s economic system and structure, economic development level, industry pattern, the resource condition, and the future economy tendency. In generally speaking, it mainly refers to such as GDP developmental tendency, market demand condition, cost of resource supply and etc.
Markets require buying power as well as people. As we all know, China is one of the developing country around the world. By doing the search on Chinses economic situation, we can find that China has a substantial middle class and many in its rapidly urbanizing population are ready consumers. In 2007, the average yearly household income was about 90,000 yuan. The number of affluent households, who earn more than 130,000 yuan annually, is rising. By 2010, the percentage of affluent Chinses households will be around 26%, making up around 50% of all household expenditures . On the other hand, the unemployment rate in China is not very high.
