ADME commentary

The ADME angle

Chery's decision to target smaller customer groups with its Australian expansion is a clear indication that the company is prioritizing profitability over volume sales

This approach will likely lead to more targeted marketing and sales strategies, which could result in higher margins for Chery's dealers

Understanding the Competitive Landscape

The fact that Chery is studying different dealer-network limits for each brand suggests that the company is aware of the importance of managing distribution channels effectively

By limiting the number of dealers for each brand, Chery can maintain control over pricing and inventory, which could help to prevent margin erosion

Implications for Showroom Traffic

Chery's focus on niche brands may lead to more targeted showroom traffic, with customers who are specifically interested in those brands

This could result in higher conversion rates and more efficient sales processes for Chery's dealers
