WHY JOINED ECOLITE SIGNATURE RETAILER PROGRAM?
According to unofficial statistics, the 1980s to 1990s marked the peak period for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) shops, with approximately 6,000 nationwide during that time. However, with the entry of Western-style pharmacies, the COVID-19 pandemic, and various tax-related events such as GST and SST, the number of TCM shops has declined sharply by over 50% to date.
With the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, there comes an excellent market opportunity following the relative crisis. According to market research in 2024, there is a growing demand for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) health and wellness products. Additionally, the wellness trend is becoming increasingly youthful. The only thing lacking for traditional TCM shops is an opportunity. By seizing the chance to transform and improve their business models, embracing both online and offline promotional opportunities, TCM shops can once again reach their peak.
Ecolite has also launched the “Ecolite Signature Retailer” model based on years of accumulated cooperation and understanding with traditional Chinese medicine shops. Through the new Signature product series and integrated online and offline promotional modes, Ecolite empowers traditional Chinese medicine shops with the Ecolite brand endorsement. This new product lineup and promotional strategy address various pain points while creating a fresh joint business model. Ecolite believes that through the specialized counter model of authorized retailing, it can continuously create more value for both parties and provide consumers with a better shopping experience.
