On June 24, 2013, YOFC President Zhuang Dan accepted in Rome of Italy the Gold Award for Quality and Business Reputation and Comprehensive Client Satisfaction Seal, which represent the high-quality performance and best client satisfaction granted by Association Otherways Management & Consulting, France. In less than a month, YOFC received two international awards for quality. On April 28, YOFC received the Platinum Quality Prize from Business Initiative Directions (B.I.D.), the world-famous quality evaluation organ. This was the second time that YOFC won B.I.D. award since it was granted with the International Quality Management Gold Prize in May 2010.
Though China is the world’s largest consumer and manufacturer of optical fibers, the Chinese optical fibre & cable enterprises still occupy a small market share in the overseas markets. When the competition in the domestic market is becoming fierce, the Chinese optical fibre & cable enterprises are now focusing on the overseas markets. Today, the technical strength and production capacity of the Chinese enterprises have become strong enough to support their international strategies. However, it is also true that the international markets have very strict requirements for product quality. In the background that the Chinese enterprises are confronted with fierce competition in product quality, YOFC has been strongly encouraged by the two international awards. Moreover, the international market is now having more confidence in the quality of the Chinese optical fibre & cable products. At the same time, the solid foundation has been laid for the international strategy of YOFC.
All results are made through long-term efforts. What YOFC has achieved today is actually the outcome of 20-year efforts of YOFC. Since inception, YOFC has established the philosophy and principle of “quality priority”. When the Chinese enterprises are in the price wars in the domestic market, YOFC has never weakened its emphasis on and adherence to quality. It has abandoned the move to sacrifice quality for lower cost.
For the broad-band network serving hundreds of millions of users, the stability constitutes its foundation and quality of optical fibre & cable is the basis for its survival. As the world’s leading producer of optical fibre & cable, YOFC has defined the quality competitiveness of its products as the core competitiveness of its own development. It will continue to take the lead in the world competition by relying on its quality competitiveness.
