zhejiang, a province with a large private economy, once again empowers and supports the development of individual economy.
on september 3, the zhejiang provincial market supervision administration, together with 17 departments, jointly launched the province's third "individual business service month" and "big enterprises helping small shops" activities. at the meeting, the first batch of 130 companies paired up with 8,395 individual businesses to provide assistance, covering wholesale and retail, manufacturing, accommodation and catering, leasing and commercial services, warehousing and transportation, e-commerce and other industries. it is expected that by the end of 2027, 1,000 well-known companies will be promoted to pair up with 100,000 individual businesses for assistance, with the number of assistance not less than 100,000 times. this is the first time that the province has launched a special action of "big enterprises helping small shops".
individual industrial and commercial households are the "nerve endings" of the market economy.
zhejiang is the pioneer of individual economy. individual industrial and commercial households are not only the "capillaries" of the industrial chain and supply chain, but also the "nerve endings" of the market economy. they are also the cradle of the growth of the top 100 private enterprises, providing more than 80% of daily life services for residents and solving more than 30% of employment. at the same time, they are also one of the nine important groups for "expanding the middle and raising the low" to achieve common prosperity.
what to help with and how to help?
zhejiang has 10.4 million market operators, which means there is one boss for every 6.5 zhejiang residents. among them, there are 6.92 million self-employed businesses, accounting for two-thirds of the total number of operators, creating 14 million jobs. however, self-employed businesses generally face problems such as a lack of professional and technical personnel, rapid growth in market raw material costs, and difficulty and high cost of hiring workers.
looking back at the history of reform and opening up in zhejiang, many large enterprises started from workshops, shabby rooms, small stalls and shops, and earlier experienced the difficulties of having no funds, no factories, no equipment and no markets. they empathize with the difficulties of small shop operators.
what and how does "big enterprises help small shops" help? the paper (www.thepaper.cn) learned from the zhejiang provincial market supervision bureau that the special action of "big enterprises help small shops" will promote the pairing of enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households to help each other, promote the growth of individual industrial and commercial households, and improve the quality, efficiency and competitiveness of enterprises.
the signing ceremony of “big enterprises helping small shops”.
"big enterprises" will provide assistance in many aspects including technology, capital, finance, law, management, and platforms.
in response to the problems of lack of professional and technical personnel and insufficient technical reserves among individual industrial and commercial households, relevant enterprises are organized to use regular technical training, on-site technical guidance, and dispatch of professional personnel to help individual industrial and commercial households upgrade product technology, improve product quality, and enhance economic benefits.
in response to the problems of rapid growth in market raw material costs, difficulty in hiring and high labor costs faced by individual industrial and commercial households, we have organized relevant enterprises to actively carry out a series of financial support measures such as reduction or exemption of rent, property fees, water, electricity and gas fees, so as to effectively reduce the operating costs of individual industrial and commercial households and alleviate their operating burdens.
in response to the problems faced by individual industrial and commercial households, such as the lack of physical assets that can be mortgaged, the lack of a matching credit system, and the difficulty in obtaining financing guarantees, we will organize relevant banking and financial institutions to provide financial support such as exclusive financial products with low interest rates, shorten approval time, extend repayment periods, etc., to reduce the financing costs of individual industrial and commercial households and promote their growth, expansion, transformation and upgrading.
in response to the problems faced by individual industrial and commercial households, such as the general lack of legal awareness, limited comprehensive legal literacy of practitioners, and weak awareness of legal risk prevention, we organize relevant enterprises to hold special legal education lectures, provide legal consulting services, and reduce litigation and attorney fees, so as to enhance the legal awareness of individual industrial and commercial households and promote standardized operations.
in response to the problems faced by individual industrial and commercial households such as the lack of professional management personnel and the lack of management systems, we organize relevant enterprises to improve the management capabilities and operating levels of individual industrial and commercial households through methods such as professional management personnel training, on-site management guidance, and the provision of professional marketing strategies.
in response to the difficulties faced by individual industrial and commercial households such as their lack of experience in operating professional online platforms and low store traffic, we organize relevant companies to enhance the digital operation capabilities of individual industrial and commercial households and increase their market share by reducing entry fees and service fees, providing exclusive traffic subsidies, and providing preferential live broadcast venues.
it is reported that governments at all levels, enterprises, social groups, etc. in the province will give full play to their functional advantages, establish a "full-chain" assistance mechanism, and enhance their comprehensive strength and promote development and growth by helping individual industrial and commercial households cultivate, protect and use intellectual property rights such as trademarks and patents, helping to continuously carry out technological innovation, and helping to expand foreign trade business.
at the event on the 3rd, chuanhao group issued an assistance initiative on behalf of large enterprises, calling for strengthening responsibility and building a bridge of assistance; leveraging their own advantages to help small shops grow; strengthening cooperation and exchanges to achieve mutual benefit and win-win results; and strengthening publicity and guidance to create a good atmosphere.
zhejiang continues to empower the development of individual economy
the individual economy is an important symbol of zhejiang's private economy's "golden business card". the first individual industrial and commercial business license in the country was issued in zhejiang. individual industrial and commercial households are "small but powerful". as the largest, most dynamic and most resilient market entities, they have become the foundation of zhejiang's economic foundation and the basic foundation of the basic foundation.
in september 2019, zhang huamei, "china's first individual business owner", was in her own company on renmin road in wenzhou.
the paper noted that zhejiang has been continuously and coherently empowering the development of the individual economy. in 2022, zhejiang was the first in the country to introduce 25 policies to help individual businesses in difficulties. last year, it successively issued "19 opinions on promoting high-quality development of the individual economy" and "several policies to vigorously promote the development of the individual economy" from the aspects of cost reduction and fee reduction, factor support, business environment, and development guarantee. for the first time, a provincial conference was held for individual businesses to cheer for the development of the individual economy.
it is reported that last year zhejiang exempted and reduced taxes and fees, lowered costs, and provided preferential water, electricity and gas fees for individual industrial and commercial households by nearly 48 billion yuan. the number of newly established individual industrial and commercial households increased by 9.15% year-on-year, the highest number in recent years.
while expanding in number, zhejiang is also pursuing an upgrade of its economic "foundation". since 2012, it has been promoting the reform of the "individual to enterprise" registration system. as of march this year, a total of 432,000 "individual to enterprise" conversions have been completed in the province. it can be said that individual industrial and commercial households have become the cradle for the growth of small, medium and micro enterprises in zhejiang.
in order to support the development of a large number of small and medium-sized enterprises, zhejiang issued the "regulations on promoting the development of small and medium-sized enterprises" as early as 2006; since 2015, it has rolled out three rounds of the "three-year growth plan for small and micro enterprises"; during the 2020 epidemic, three batches of policies to support small and micro enterprises to overcome difficulties were successively issued within half a year; in march last year, the province's "regulations on promoting the development of small and medium-sized enterprises" was implemented, and the provincial level provided assistance to small and medium-sized enterprises in the post-epidemic era. for example, 32,000 cadres familiar with economic work were selected to serve as business service staff in key cultivated small and medium-sized enterprises and small and micro-enterprise clusters, and point-to-point grid-based contact visits were carried out; in response to common industry problems, "100 events and 10,000 enterprises" e-commerce market expansion actions were organized.
the paper learned that this year, zhejiang will focus on stimulating the endogenous power of small, medium and micro enterprises, and will focus on helping them develop in the direction of specialization, precision and innovation. several relevant opinions issued in july clearly stated that they will promote the integrated development of large, medium and small enterprises, and encourage eagle enterprises, "chain leader" enterprises, and manufacturing leading enterprises to incorporate specialized, precision and innovation small and medium-sized enterprises into the industrial chain supply chain system through industrial ties, cluster incubation, upstream and downstream matching, division of labor and cooperation, and open application scenarios, so as to drive small and medium-sized enterprises to optimize production and operation and improve product quality. at the same time, the "ten chains, one hundred fields, ten thousand enterprises" docking activities will be carried out to promote large, medium and small enterprises to strengthen integration and cooperation in technological innovation, product matching, market development, and supply chain cooperation.
