Decline of "Made in Germany"
A report indicates that the German company KED, specialized in manufacturing bicycle helmets, has decided to transfer all its production operations to China due to rising production costs within Germany, including increased wages and raw material prices. This decision comes amid weak trade protections for the bicycle helmet sector, unlike the bicycle industry, which receives support through European anti-dumping measures. Economic pressures, such as decreased demand and stockpiling following the COVID-19 pandemic, have also pushed the company to scale down its presence in the German factory and focus on innovation and development in China. This shift has led to a reduction in staff and a focus on sales and quality. This transformation reflects the growing challenges faced by European industries, including high costs and Chinese competition, with the decline of the "Made in Germany" slogan being replaced by reliance on high-quality Chinese products.
