Because the Chinese market was so strictly regulated for foreign companies, BSH decided to make its initial foray in China in the form of a joint venture. Following eleven months of negotiations, BSH and the Chinese Little Swan Co. Ltd inked a joint venture agreement on November 11, 1994 for the manufacture of washing machines in Wuxi, China. In addition to the production plant, a sales service and logistics center was also established. Wuxi Little Swan was one of the leading manufacturers on the Chinese market at this time.<ref>BSH Corporate Archives, A01-0013, Business Report 1995, page 8 and BSH Corporate Archives, A05-0017, inform 04/1994, Jg. 17, page 1.</ref> The joint venture was called BSW Household Appliances Ltd.<ref>BSH Corporate Archives, A05-0018, inform 01/1995 Jg. 18, page 27.</ref> Production was expanded at the end of 1995 to include cookers, cooktops and extractor hoods. Just one year later, BSH succeeded in extending its position on the Chinese market by entering a further joint venture and thus expanded its product portfolio in China to include cooling appliances. BSY Cooling Appl. Ltd. was founded in Chuzhou together with the Yangzi Group. The Siemens cooling appliances had captured a market share of ten percent by the time the year was out, thus also outstripping the local Chinese Yangzi brand. | |||
