China Factor
In recent years, China's market share in the international granite memorial gravestone trade has grown steadily. A critical question arises: Will China's export scope expand to include sheet metal and other essential raw materials? If so, this shift could pose a significant existential threat to the stone industry in other countries, which have painstakingly developed their markets. How will affected European companies respond to this challenge?
The Pace of Industrial Consolidation is Accelerating
Although marble, granite memorial gravestones, and slate all fall under the category of natural stone, they belong to different systems with distinct cost structures and market dynamics. For instance, while some companies export marble to 75 countries, granite memorial gravestones are sold in no more than 25 countries. Historically, the granite memorial gravestone industry has operated in isolation with minimal exchange of information.
However, this landscape is evolving. Collaboration between these separate industries is increasing, sales networks are merging, and warehouses are beginning to stock both materials. Furthermore, end customers are gradually becoming the same. The key question now is: Will these two worlds eventually merge into a single, unified industry?
A Highly Capital-Intensive Industry?
Recent trends suggest that to remain competitive, factories must invest in increasingly advanced and expensive equipment, secure raw materials, and develop extensive storage bases. While this strategy promises growth, it also introduces significant risks, requiring strong management skills.
Historically, decision-making in the industry has been concentrated in the hands of top-level owners. Now, the granite memorial gravestone industry is transitioning into a highly capital-intensive and complex business. The critical question remains: Is such large-scale capital investment inevitable? And if so, what impact will it have on small companies and the overall rules of the industry? The answer is yet to be determined.
Technological Change
We live in the age of technology—adapt or perish. However, embracing technology alone does not guarantee success. The only certainty is that technological advancements will continue to shape the industry.
Looking ahead, what will be the most critical productivity factor for advanced operations in the next five to ten years? The answer to this question will be a key determinant in shaping the future of the entire granite memorial gravestone industry.
