Recently, ZIEL Home, Guanwei Furniture, and Soonfor Software officially held the kickoff meeting for a digital cooperation project. The three parties will work together around the goals of data-driven operations, intelligent collaboration, and ecosystem win-win development to jointly create a new integrated paradigm for a home furnishing manufacturing digital ecosystem oriented toward the global market.

This cooperation marks another important step in ZIEL's technology-enabled supply chain strategy and also indicates that Guanwei Furniture is fully entering a new stage of refined, standardized, and intelligent management.

United for long-term progress, opening a new digital chapter

Hunan Guanwei Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. is located in Chenzhou, Hunan. It mainly produces panel furniture, intelligent hardware, and intelligent hardware plus iron art combinations, and is a large manufacturer integrating design, development, production, and sales.

In August 2023, Guanwei Furniture undertook ZIEL Home's first furniture product order, officially opening the cooperation between the two parties. Since then, the two sides have rapidly expanded the boundaries of cooperation, extending from single-point order collaboration to joint planning for furniture and jewelry cabinet projects in Southeast Asia and Cambodia. At the ZIEL Home Global Ecosystem Conference in March 2025, they signed a strategic cooperation agreement and jointly embarked on a new journey toward the 100-billion-yuan milestone.

Facing changes in the international trade environment in recent years, especially the challenge of a significant decline in the share of shipments to the United States, the cooperation between ZIEL and Guanwei has grown against the trend, demonstrating strong resilience and strategic alignment.

Li Zhibo, director of ZIEL Home, said at the kickoff meeting, This digital project jointly built with Guanwei and Soonfor is an important practice of ZIEL's technology-empowered supply chain strategy. We value not only capacity and delivery, but also management synchronization, data connectivity, and ecosystem co-existence through joint system construction.

Mr. Li, deputy general manager of Guanwei Furniture, has high expectations for this cooperation. He pointed out, Digitalization is not an optional question, but a required answer. Guanwei will include this project as a company-level strategic project, fully guarantee resource investment, promote full participation, process reengineering, and mindset upgrading. We look forward to deep collaboration with ZIEL and Soonfor to build an agile, efficient, and replicable smart manufacturing benchmark factory.

Focusing on strategic consensus to drive management upgrading

This digital project takes improving operational efficiency and strengthening delivery capability as its core, and defines five key goals:

Key goals

Realize transparent and refined management data.

Improve personnel operation efficiency and process standardization.

Strengthen raw material procurement planning and kitting management.

Optimize inventory structure and reduce sluggish inventory risks.

Build a full-process online quality control system.

Li Ruixiang, IT project manager of ZIEL, elaborated on the project implementation plan. We will connect the full chain from order receipt, production scheduling, and material procurement to warehousing logistics and quality inspection, ensuring that every link is traceable, warnable, and closed-loop, truly realizing speaking with data and collaborating through systems, he said.

To ensure high-quality project implementation, Han Dong, PMO manager of Soonfor Software, introduced the structure and responsibility division of the professional implementation team and emphasized, The key to success lies in the trinity of business, IT, and execution. We will adhere to standard implementation, unified rhythm, and closed-loop management, while focusing on cross-cultural communication and localized adaptation to help Guanwei achieve quick results and steady transformation.

Ecosystem collaboration moves toward a new height of global intelligent manufacturing

As Guanwei Furniture fully connects to ZIEL's digital ecosystem, the two sides will integrate order flow, information flow, logistics flow, and capital flow, upgrading from a traditional supply-demand relationship to a digital ecosystem community. This is not only a win-win result for the two enterprises, but also a vivid example of the collaborative overseas expansion and high-quality development of China's home furnishing industrial chain.

In the future, ZIEL Home will continue to work with high-quality manufacturing partners and Soonfor Software to jointly build an open, intelligent, and resilient global home furnishing digital ecosystem, injecting strong momentum into Chinese intelligent manufacturing going global.
