The rationale for investing in Keeson Technology,Cui Xinxin, Managing Partner of the Greater Living Fund at Sharing InvestmentThe following three points are summarized:

 

First, the market prospects for smart beds are vast.Compared to the high penetration rate of smart beds in developed countries in Europe and the United States, consumer awareness in China remains relatively low. Amid the trend of consumption upgrading, young families, represented by the “new middle class,” are continuously raising their standards for living quality and paying increasing attention to sleep quality, thereby creating significant opportunities for companies like Keeson.

 

Second, it features ample production capacity, specialized manufacturing, and a high degree of automation.The company’s industrial park features specialized, advanced, and large-scale factories and equipment. With over 13 years of experience in the manufacturing of electric beds, it holds absolute advantages and a leading position in production and manufacturing, enabling it to provide users with high-quality products offering the best price-performance ratio.

 

Third, sales volume is absolutely leading, with the company’s sales continuing to grow at a high speed for many years.

 

Cui Xinxin added, “In recent years, Fenxiang Investment has focused its investments primarily on the broader housing sector. As China’s real estate market transitions from a growth-driven model to one centered on existing stock, significant opportunities are emerging in product and service innovations along the upstream and downstream segments of the real estate industry chain. We are closely monitoring innovative projects that align with residential needs and enhance living quality, including smart home products such as smart beds, as well as areas like real estate big data, standardized home renovation, prefabricated interior decoration, property transaction services, and community service innovation.”
