Small security companies in China are forced to seek various options and diverge their business portfolio to survive the market pressure from large producers such as Hikvision and Dahua, according to a Chinese security camera manufacturer at the Secutech 2015 trade show in Taipei.
Seung hoon Hyun, general manager for overseas sales at Dong Yang Unitech, said that they cannot focus on the large projects at all, as these are being monopolised by the large companies.
However, many buyers were still concerned about the quality of Chinese manufacturers. Some of them cited government regulations in certain countries, especially in the Middle East, that forbid the use of Chinese products in security surveillance.
