“KUKA Jogging Crew” and Marathon Spirit

With consumption upgrades, growing importance has been attached to quality of services in the home industry. As a “leading home brand in China”, KUKA not only integrates its service concepts into its products and services, but also actively takes part in Marathon, public welfare and other projects.

In Hangzhou Marathon, KUKA not only assigned a powerful jogging crew, but also set up a KUKA supply station for sharing love and helping runners. To be family-oriented, we have to firstly keep sound physical energy. The supply station supplied enough water, functional drinks and fruits and so on, in order to supplement energy for players who were unremitting running forward. This is also an important manifestation of KUKA’s close attention to sports and public welfare.

Sports, which are important ways for making a country strong, powerful and prosperous, carry forward dreams of nations. The “sports spirit” that KUKA highlights didn’t emerge on a whim. For years, KUKA has organized tens of thousands of meters running for its employees. In this company, year-end bonuses are associated with personal health reports...Sports spirit has become a part of KUKA for quite a long period. In addition, KUKA supplied sofas and products to the Training Council, State General Administration of Sport in 2012. Its products have become exclusive ones for athletes’ apartments, training centers, training councils and physiotherapy rehabilitation organizations. Thus, KUKA Home has not only integrated positive and opportunistic Olympic elements into its enterprise cultures, but also acquired deeper understanding about corporate cultural construction.

KUKA sport industry, furniture distribution across industries

With the improvement of people’s consumption and living standards, sports industry, which is an integral part of national economy, has played more and more critical roles in economic structures. These years, it has been very common that enterprises of the home industry carry out their marketing across the sports industry.

KUKA actively implements dual-drive strategies for “industrial investments”. In its industry chain, it plans formats for “manufacturing and retail”. So far, it has owned scores of subsidiaries home and abroad, including KUKA Home, KUKA Industry, KUKA Investment, Lingshang Home, Shanghao Aofan, Beijing Shichuang, Rolf Benz, Rocky Design and Shuangke Technology. It focuses on home design, making and creation. In addition, it gets involved in other fields such as commercial real estates and financial investments.

Under the macro environment of public body building, it has become inevitable for the home industry to develop across the sports industry. In this Hangzhou Marathon, KUKA, on one hand, has performed branded sports marketing to consolidate “sports spirit” of its enterprise cultures; on the other hand, its participation in that marathon was his trial for exploring layout of the sports industry, with great significance for strategies and development of KUKA.
