百丽收购硅谷网红鞋Allbirds:中国鞋王的转型之路
中国鞋业巨头百丽时尚近日宣布获得美国网红休闲鞋品牌Allbirds在中国市场的10年独家经销权。这一合作标志着百丽向高端休闲鞋市场的战略转型迈出重要一步。
China's footwear giant Belle Fashion recently announced a 10-year exclusive distribution agreement for American internet-famous shoe brand Allbirds in the Chinese market. This partnership marks a significant step in Belle's strategic transformation toward the premium casual footwear market.
创立于2016年的Allbirds曾风靡硅谷,以其环保理念和舒适设计著称。这双售价800元左右的羊毛休闲鞋在中国市场同样吸引了追求品质生活的中产阶级消费者。而对百丽来说,代理Allbirds恰好填补了其品牌矩阵中高端休闲鞋的空白。
Founded in 2016, Allbirds once took Silicon Valley by storm with its eco-friendly concept and comfortable design. These wool sneakers priced around 800 yuan have also attracted middle-class consumers pursuing quality lifestyles in China. For Belle, distributing Allbirds perfectly fills the gap in its brand portfolio for premium casual footwear.
