Longsheng Investment - Consumer Research on Kaifeng's Commercial District
Company overview
Longsheng Investment Co., Ltd. of Jilin Province is a comprehensive enterprise specializing in the investment, development, and operation of commercial real estate, committed to uncovering regional commercial potential and optimizing urban commercial landscapes. The company possesses extensive practical experience in the development of commercial complexes, with projects spanning multiple provinces and cities. It particularly focuses on the sustainable development and value enhancement of core urban commercial districts.
Research background
As a representative core commercial district in Henan Province, Kaifeng's commercial area has long integrated cultural, commercial, and tourism functions, forming a radiating commercial structure centered on a key hub. However, since 2018, amid evolving market conditions and rising consumer demands, the district has experienced a degree of developmental stagnation. For continuously operating commercial complexes, the urgency for business model updates and strategic adjustments has increased accordingly, underscoring the growing importance of consumer research. Only by deeply understanding target customer segments can businesses maintain competitiveness in a fiercely competitive market.
Research scope
In September 2018, CEIDEA Research was commissioned by Longsheng Investment to conduct a specialized study on the current and potential consumer groups within Kaifeng's commercial district. This research employed both qualitative focus group discussions and quantitative questionnaire surveys, covering a diverse range of consumer segments within the district's influence area. The study aimed to thoroughly understand consumer habits, brand preferences, demand for commercial formats, and their authentic evaluations of the existing commercial environment. On-site recordings and photographs were conducted throughout the research process to ensure data authenticity and reliability, with key findings and underlying issues identified through structured analysis.
Expected outcomes
This research will provide Longsheng Investment with high-quality data to fully understand the consumer structure and behavioral trends within Kaifeng's commercial district, supporting precise decision-making in areas such as commercial planning, format introduction, brand adjustments, and marketing strategies. The findings will facilitate a shift from 'current situation adaptation' to 'demand-driven development,' optimize resource allocation, enhance operational efficiency and customer retention, and offer practical recommendations for the redefinition of regional commercial value.
