Moutai cross-border to build hospitals is very interesting
An industry insider said in a media In an interview with the media, Moutai said the move may be to comply with the needs of the local government - as a well-known local brand and state-owned enterprises in Guizhou, Moutai's strategic direction largely reflects the intentions of the Guizhou provincial government. Previous initiatives such as Moutai's construction of airports and colleges, and its 2020 shareholding in Guizhou Expressway are all based on government-level considerations.
"Guizhou's hospitals are ranked low in the country and in the southwest, and there is a serious outflow of patients. Maotai cooperates with the local government to plan and build a third-class hospital to make up for the local short board, which is also common in social medical care." The insider said.
It is worth noting that previously Wuliangye Group has also reached cooperation with hospitals across the border - in July 2018, Wuliangye announced that it had joined hands with the West China Hospital of Sichuan University, and the two sides are not only in the health industry jointly, but also in the white wine and health, health care alcohol development, health drinking, health food, as well as high-end biopharmaceuticals, medical equipment and other areas of in-depth cooperation.
Zhang Lichao, a senior researcher at Guoxin Securities, argued in an interview that liquor giants like Moutai and Wuliangye have strong cash flow of their own, which can effectively make up for problems such as capital turnover difficulties and systematic losses that are common in hospitals.
