Amid a competitive market in China, rising US tariffs, and global logistics volatility, Haier implemented a focused three-pillar strategy to guide its strategic planning and execution in the first half of 2025:

  • Product Mix Optimization & Blockbuster Launches, which focused on leveraging best-selling products across both premium and mass-market segments to broaden user reach and amplify market presence.
  • AI-Driven Lean Operations, embedding AI and digital tools across the end-to-end process — from consumer insights to fulfilment — to enhance user conversion, accelerate inventory turnover, and reduce costs.
  • Localization & Regional Empowerment, strengthening local-for-local manufacturing and giving regional leaders greater autonomy, enabling faster decision-making, closer user engagement, and the creation of a differentiated consumer value proposition.

Casarte extended its premium leadership with 20% revenue growth, supported by suite-based solutions and a stronger digital presence, increasing its market share by 0.9 percentage points YoY (GfK).

Leader reinforced its focus on the youth market segment with differentiated designs such as the triple-tub washing machines, achieving sales growth of over 15% YoY. In air conditioners, hero models scaled: the Energy-Saving series exceeded 1 million units, and Smart-Air drove triple-digit growth in high-end models—strengthening pricing power and market share.

 

Overseas Markets: Accelerating Growth Across Regions

Overseas revenue rose by 11.66% YoY, with strong contributions across regions:

  • North America: Revenue of Premium brands grew double-digit YoY on product upgrades and brand mix optimization, consolidating the company as the #1 Appliance Company in the USA.
  • Europe: Revenue increased by 24.1% YoY, driven by locally tailored innovations and enriched category offerings, while stronger execution, organizational empowerment, and supply chain upgrades reinforced growth momentum.

Sustaining Growth Amid Uncertainty

Haier Smart Home is well-equipped to navigate market instability and global volatility. Its multi-brand portfolio continues to generate growth across premium and mass segments, while AI-driven lean operations are already delivering results — from sharper consumer insights and optimized portfolio planning to cost reductions through digitalization of processes.

Beyond efficiency, AI is also driving innovation of product ecosystems: the upcoming AI Vision series extends AI into differentiated smart-home experiences. This reinforces premium product positioning and user loyalty.

At the same time, local-for-local manufacturing and empowered regional teams reduce external risks and create value closer to users. Together, these strengths ensure near-term resilience and long-term sustainable growth.
