As a leader in the domestic jewelry industry, Jindeli people have established the long-term goal of brand development as early as the early days of their business: "Based in Fuzhou, facing the country, and going to the world." For more than ten years, we have embarked on a unique path of brand implementation. This is to always keep abreast of the pulse of the mass market, analyze the market in accordance with the law of "foreign countries drive the domestic market, cities drive the urban and rural areas, and brands guide consumers" in the civilian consumer market, and unswervingly seize the opportunity with innovation and branding to achieve mass development.

Jindeli people deeply understand the market competition under market economy conditions. In the end, it is a competition of variety and quality, and variety and quality are often achieved through brand competition. If a modern enterprise does not have high-quality products or famous brands that lead the industry trend, it will often be difficult to explore the market, develop and grow, and even lose the ability to withstand risks. The core issue in creating a brand is quality and service. Therefore, in the early stages of hard work, a visionary awareness of brand creation was established.

In early 1989, after one year and nine months of testing, Mr. Lin Yonglin invented the jewelry plaster mold. Then he came to Fuzhou City, Fujian Province to start a business. In April 1992, the product was put into production in Fuzhou City. At that time, funds were quite difficult. At that time, 3 million yuan was invested in jointly developing special equipment for jewelry molds with Beijing Tsinghua University and Shanghai Mechanical Engineering Complete Equipment Corporation, and jointly developed and developed jewelry molds that meet the needs of the Chinese market with world-leading raw material supply manufacturers such as Germany and the United States. Raw materials; and a large number of advanced instruments, instrumentation equipment, etc. are purchased from all over the world. After many efforts, we finally overcame the difficulties and successfully put into mass production to produce high-level jewelry gypsum mold products, which fully guaranteed the high quality and strong market competitiveness of Jindeli products. In order to win users and the market, we have created Brand image takes a crucial first step.

The first single-piece jewelry plaster mold developed by Jindeli people in China won the "Pyramid" award at the "China Torch Plan Achievements and High-tech Products Expo" held in Egypt in 1992. , Jindeli Jewelry Mold Co., Ltd. was also registered and established in Fuzhou; in 1994, it established a supporting enterprise - Fuzhou Jindeli Jewelry Co., Ltd.; then, in 1995, Fuzhou Jindeli Crafts Co., Ltd. was established; in 1998, Hai Ten domestic and foreign compact companies were established to establish Fujian Jindeli Group Co., Ltd. Since then, Jindeli has begun to transform from traditional manual processing to modern precision "casting" processing, and from traditional management to scientific and modern management.

2. Be aware of brand use

Jindeli is one of the first companies in Fujian Province to carry out defensive registration of famous brand trademarks at home and abroad. In 1992, long before Jindeli Company officially opened, its products registered the "Jindeli" trademark. Then, defensive registrations were carried out in more than 40 categories of different product and service trademarks. We spent hundreds of thousands of yuan to register the Jindeli trademark in dozens of countries and regions including the United States, Japan, Spain, South Korea, Canada, Australia, Russia, and Southeast Asia, and entered the threshold of the international market. It is to prevent and eliminate counterfeiting and preemptive registration by others to protect the intellectual property rights of Jindeli brand.
