亚洲种植园资本公司 (APC) 让一切变得简单:亚洲种植园资本公司 (Asia Plantation Capital) 的成功案例表明:垂直整合,可行有效

 

 

在《麦肯锡季刊》1993 年 8 月刊中,John Stuckey 和 David White 极力劝阻公司对其业务进行垂直整合,并称这将带来巨大的危险。

文章所传达的主要信息在第一段便已昭然若揭(这一点令人颇为意外,因为麦肯锡的写手们通常在给出结论之前,喜欢长篇大论)。早在第一段,作者就已明确地表达观点,那就是:“在创造价值或维系价值时,除非必须如此,否则切勿进行垂直整合。”

文章继而详细地描述了其潜在的威胁。而后,作者又一番谆谆教诲,字里行间向读者传达的讯息是:我们,以及整个麦肯锡团队,都不赞同这种做法。

作者列举了垂直整合的复杂性和所涉及的风险。这种做法代价昂贵,而且即使所有的“鸭子”都整齐划一地排列到位,也并不能确保成功。Stuckey 和 White 还指出,一旦失败,垂直整合的商业模式便难以恢复原状,毫无回旋余地。

公司进行垂直整合的原因有很多。这些公司至少看上去运行良好,明智而审慎。

采取垂直整合的公司拥有的一个关键优势在于,他们拥有自己的供应链,因此可以在每一个环节上创造价值(只要他们愿意)。在良好的商业模式下,供应链的每一个环节都将产生不同的产品或服务。

这种优势相对来说较易于实现,只需满足一个重要条件,即垂直整合的公司无论制造什么产品都有市场。

理想状态下,完美的商业模式离不开数个相互关联的企业,它们竞相购买和使用制造的产品。这样的话,在交易日结束估算账目时,公司某一部门就不会向另一个部门额外收取产品相关费用,也就使得价格可控。这样做的意义何在?价格过低也不可取,因为需要考虑账目,达到收支平衡。在理想化的商务运作中,价格可经协商后达成一致,从而使得所有相关方都能从中获益。不能过度强调供应链控制对成功运作垂直整合商业模式的作用。实际上,对于许多进行垂直整合的公司而言,“控制”似乎是它们谈论的热门话题。

良好的控制可以降低成本,提高效率,确保质量,同时保证各种可变因素尽在掌握。那 Stuckey 和 White 究竟在担心什么?

垂直整合商业模式除上述种种优势之外,也不乏大量的失败案例,警示世人。供应链的强度由最弱的环节决定。这虽是老生常谈,但如果某一阶段的需求无法达到预期,就会带来灾难性的重创,从而影响到整个系统的运行。

最基本的一个案例就是过去的汽车制造商。这些公司经过垂直整合后,不仅负责汽车各部件的生产制造,还负责把控整车制造 — 终端产品的营销与配送自不用说,也是由公司全权负责。

一家汽车公司从生产零部件,到将零部件组装成最终产品,然后通过自有的代理商将其产品销售给顾客。本质上说,这是垂直整合商业模式的一个很好的案例。

问题出在哪里?公司对各组成部件的质量(包括价格和供应)、终端产品的质量和供应量均有着良好的控制,足以满足市场需求。

但问题是,需求并不总是一成不变。如果,(还是以汽车行业为例),需求下降,就会造成产量过剩和资源过剩。这时,恐怕财务总监就要忙着审视自己的选择是否正确了(原文如此)。

关于垂直整合的恐怖画面就描绘到这里;其实,这种模式还是可行有效的。亚洲种植园资本公司似乎就给了我们一个很好的例证 — 垂直整合这种商业模式令全球各地的分析师们都为之抓耳挠腮,尽管都对其垂涎已久。简单来说就是,它非常有效,但还需谨慎。

在亚洲种植园资本 (APC) 这个案例中,他们占尽了垂直整合的各种好处,同时巧妙地规避了各种危险,对供应链各相关衔接部位均控制得当,将潜在的优势发挥到最大程度。公平地说,APC 的管理阶层都是控制狂人。但是在理论上最理想的状态下,垂直整合也只关乎控制。

对于非商务专业人士来说,以下可能会有点枯燥。这个世界不乏成功的故事和盈利的公司。而 APC 的成就是将成功续写为一个传奇。很难确定孰先孰后。但先后并不重要。无论是机缘巧合,还是苦心经营,APC 创新的商业模式完全有资格屹立于现代商业之殿。

APC 特有的“土地-精油-客户”业务模式贯彻于各大种植园区和联营公司,而在这种模式的背后,可持续性、可再生性与环保意识完美结合,对于投资者和股东而言,这也是一次绝佳的机会。

世界投资领域的变革进行到现阶段,上述三大要素的结合的确是令人振奋,亚洲种植园资本公司似乎摸到了现代商业的时代脉搏。

公司从购买土地入手,最终获得馥郁奇香的产品。其间的所有步骤以及确保供应链各环节坚不可摧的所有流程均由 APC 监管。

 

始于土地…

供应链很长,偶尔也会复杂。但本质上是,APC 公司在自有种植园种植树木,并以合乎道德的可持续发展方式收获树木。之后,再从中提取一种物质,其价值甚至超过同等质量的金子。

没有进行太多的科学研究,APC 便开始在种植园种植沉香属树木 — 这种树木因非法砍伐而濒临灭绝,并名列 CITES(《濒危野生动植物国际贸易公约》)濒危物种名单。

APC 竭尽全力,将这一物种重新在自然环境中培植,直到它再次繁茂生长。那么问题来了:为什么沉香属树木会濒临灭绝?

答案很简单:因为它异常珍贵。

 

到精油…

沉香属树木在受到某种霉菌感染侵袭后,会产生一种深色的树脂,而正是这种物质(又名伽罗木、沉香木或沉香)价值极高。

在世界很多地方,沉香用于宗教和文化仪式中已有数千年的历史(特别在中东地区尤其受追捧),沉香因其独有的奇香和药用价值而备受珍视。沉香是自然界最神奇的物质之一。

沉香在蒸馏处理后,可产生一种自远古以来就用于制作香水的精油 — APC 留意到了这一点,并从中看到了商机,着手拼凑出完整的版图。

APC 沉香属树木分泌的沉香质量极佳,公司在垂直整合思路的引导下,建立了自有蒸馏厂,从而保证了供应链的无缝接合。

APC 在自有种植园内种植树木(供应链上的另外一环),并建立研发咨询委员会,以研发优化生长和产量所需的专利技术(供应链上至关重要且意义深远的一环)。

值得一提的是,这些树木不仅出产沉香精油,其木片和各种其他衍生品的需求量也很高。世界各地都采用沉香作为熏香,甚至因其具有的芳香气味而直接使用。

为确保种植园的树木从一开始就拥有最好的生长条件,APC 自己种植样本,仅选用最健康、硬度最大的进行种植。因此实现了对整个流程最早阶段的控制。一直以来,控制都是至关重要。

而在蒸馏出沉香之后,供应链后面的环节才开始起作用。全球对沉香精油的需求越来越大,部分香水行业的年产值估计已达 60 亿至 120 亿美元。

 

再到客户。

香氛世界对沉香的需求现已无法满足,您会在许多世界最知名的香水中发现沉香的踪迹。沉香已成为二十一世纪的首选优质配料,像伊夫•圣罗兰、迪奥和汤姆•福特这样的知名品牌都纷纷采用。

Fragrance Du Bois 作为时尚新宠,跻身一众名贵品牌 — 这种新型香水有着市面上最罕见的奇香,令人陶醉不已。

Fragrance Du Bois 是亚洲种植园资本集团开发的新产品(您可能已经猜到),而且可能是整个产品链的最后一环。产品链环环相扣,无缝接合。Du Bois 已在新加坡和吉隆坡开设旗舰精品店,在不久的将来还将有更多的精品店开张。芬芳的香味引得人们对这个行业兴趣十足。2012 年,行业规模估计已达 280 亿美元。

Fragrance Du Bois 香水由一小群高级调香师配制而成,并鲜明地烙上了其个人特色印记,公司在非常短的时间内,凭借原创而创新的产品核心,在市场上占据了一席之地。

令 Fragrance Du Bois 的高级调香师们最为享受的是,能采用如此优质的沉香调配香水。确保沉香是最高等级、百分百有机纯净,而且来源清楚。高级调香师们确切地知道沉香的来源及其制作过程。

同样重要的是,他们知道这些沉香的制作过程和来源获取都将可持续化视为关键,无论是整个制作理念,还是产品链的可持续供应,都是如此。

如果控制在成功的垂直整合商业模式中发挥了主要作用,那么 APC 似乎创建了一幅完美的终极蓝图。APC 旗下各公司购置土地、拥有土地、种植树木、提取树脂、生产木材和精油,然后将产品提供给一个迅速发展的行业。在这个行业中,APC 拥有数量众多的零售店。

APC 占据高地,掌控全局;在供应链的每个环节都有生产和销售渠道,因而质量得以保证,价值得以提升。

人们很容易会认为,亚洲种植园资本的管理层在 1993 年看了 Stuckey 和 White 的文章后不久,便开始进行垂直整合商业模式的探索,而在当时这一模式似乎距离完美并不遥远。

看来,警告已得到注意,危险已成功规避,而特殊案例也已然发生。另类投资最重要的三重底线是员工、生态和利润,而属于这个年代的商业模式符合另类投资的诸多条件
