Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., the world’s largest mobile phone and television maker, said on March 12 that its sales volume in China hit $14.3 billion in 2012, a jump of more than 50 percent.
The South Korean company said that it is ready to expand its lead in the consumer electronics sector this year and that it will also boost its business-to-business units.
In 2012, the company grabbed the largest market share in the mobile, display and flat-panel TV sectors in China. With 17.7 percent of the market share in the country, the company sold more than 30 million smartphones in China in 2012, up from 10.9 million the previous year.
Samsung’s long-time rival, Apple Inc., ranked third, behind local electronics giant Lenovo Group Ltd.
Dealership Expansion
German car producer Audi AG plans to open one new Audi dealership each week on average in China in 2013, Audi’s official said on March 12.
“At present, we are rapidly expanding our dealer network in China, and about half of the Chinese cities with more than 1 million inhabitants still have to be included in the dealer network,” said Rupert Stadler, Chairman of the Board of Management of Audi AG, at the company’s annual press conference.
“By 2017, we want to increase the number of Audi dealerships to more than 500,” Stadler added.
Stadler also said that the number of worldwide sites may increase, but one standard stays the same: Made by Audi.
The world’s largest Audi Training Center will be opened in Beijing in 2013, which is the only way to achieve the high Audi service standard everywhere with a rapidly growing number of dealerships.
