Guiyang to launch goods procurement hub

The Good Goods Alliance Central Procurement Center at Guiyang Southwest International Trade City is set to become operational by June.

The initiative aims to streamline the consumer experience by reducing time spent selecting products, fostering growth in the trade industry through collaboration, said Yang Zhihao, the center's general manager.

The center will create experiential scenarios that allow consumers to visualize the effects of home décor. Yang emphasized the introduction of "scenario-based displays", which aim to establish a comprehensive service platform encompassing design, material selection, and construction.

This platform will offer design and consulting services while matching construction teams to customer needs, even directing customer traffic to brand stores.

More than 100 merchants have signed agreements with the center, ensuring price, quality, and service assurances. The center will monitor the entire process, from delivery timeliness and installation quality to after-sales services.

A reward and punishment system will be implemented to recognize and reward excellent service providers. Conversely, project delays, price gouging, quality defects, or poor service will be managed through a "blacklist" system.
