As a strategy to promote sales, Guomei Electronic Appliances Co declared yesterday that all goods would be sold at wholesale prices in its local chain stores, yesterday's Youth Daily reported.
Although Guomei explains that they are doing this in order to make wholesale prices known to consumers, home appliance producers have protested against this strategy and even threaten to stop supply to the company. "Guomei's behavior violates the marketing order," said an official with Haier Group Co.
