ABD MOBİLYA PAZARI yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy 1- GENEL BİLGİLER ABD Nüfus İdaresi’nin (Census Bureau) verilerine1 göre; 2000 yılında 19.000`den fazla mobilya üreticisi firmada 642.440 kişiye istihdam sağlanmakta ve yıllık üretim 75.5 milyar dolara ulaşmaktadır. Toplam üretimde ev mobilyaları 43.6 milyar dolarla % 58 oranında, ofis mobilyaları 24.5 milyar dolarla % 32 oranında ve diğer mobilya türleri (mutfak dolapları, lokanta ve mağaza malzemeleri, stadyum ve sinema koltukları, laboratuvar, hastane, kamu binaları, kütüphane, okul ve yatak mobilyaları) 7.4 milyar dolarla % 10 oranında paya sahiptir. 2000 yılında toplam mobilya satışları ise 91.3 milyar doları geçmiştir. 2001 yılında ABD’nin toplam mobilya ihracatı2 2000 yılına göre % 15.9 oranında azalışla 2.30 milyar dolar olup, bu rakamın 1.50 milyar dolarını ev mobilyaları, 561.57 milyon dolarını ofis mobilyaları ve kalan kısmını ise diğer mobilya çeşitleri oluşturmuştur. Aynı yılda ABD’nin toplam mobilya ithalatı 2000 yılına göre % 2.8 oranında azalışla 14.16 milyar dolar olup, bu rakamın 10.12 milyar dolarını ev mobilyaları, 2.15 milyar dolarını ofis mobilyaları ve 1.89 milyar dolarını diğer mobilya çeşitleri oluşturmuştur. Düşük faiz oranları, ev satışlarındaki artış, düşük işsizlik oranı, kişisel gelirdeki artış ve müşterilerin güven düzeyinin yüksekliği perakende mobilya satışlarını olumlu etkilemektedir. 2000 yılında mobilya ve yatak için yapılan harcamalar 1999 yılına göre % 7.3 oranında artmıştır. 2002 Ocak ayında ise; 2000 yılı Ocak ayına göre % 3.6, 2001 Ocak ayına göre ise %0.3 artışla 66.5 milyar dolara ulaşmıştır. ABD mobilya pazarında ev mobilyaları, ofis mobilyaları, monte edilmeye hazır mobilyalar, kumaş kaplı mobilyalar, kurumsal mobilyalar, bahçe mobilyaları ve yataklar ana ürün gruplarıdır. Bu pazarda; özel kişiler, perakendeciler ve internet üzerinden satış yapanlar, kamu kurumları ve şirketler ana müşterileri oluşturmaktadır. Mobilyada net ithalatçı durumuna ve ithalatın her yıl artmış olmasına karşın, dünya çapında üretici olan ABD’li üreticiler hala ABD mobilya pazarının önemli bir kısmına 1 U.S. Census Bureau-Statistics for Industry Groups and Industries: 2000 http://www.census.gov/prod/2002pubs/m00as-1.pdf 2 Department of Commerce-Offıce of Consumer Goods (http://www.ita.doc.gov/td/ocg/furniture.htm) ORTA ANADOLU İHRACATÇI BİRLİKLERİ GENEL SEKRETERLİĞİ/AR-GE ŞUBESİ 1 sahiptir. Tamamen monte edilmiş, orta ve üst gelir grubuna yönelik yemek odası takımları, çekmeceli dolap ve sandık ile kumaş kaplı kanepe ve sandalye gibi ahşap ev mobilyaları, ABD ev mobilyası tüketiminin çoğunluğunu oluşturmaktadır. Kanada dışındaki yabancı üreticiler yüksek maliyetli taşıma ücretlerinden dolayı bu tür mobilyalarda dezavantajlı durumdadır. Meksika’daki mobilya üreticileri mobilya boyama ve cilalamada yeterli teknolojiye sahip olmadıklarından henüz orta ve üst gelir grubuna yönelik mobilya pazarına girememiştir. Üretimdeki teknolojiye dayalı yüksek oranlı otomatikleşme ve dizaynlarından dolayı ABD’li üreticiler ofis mobilyaları pazarında üstün durumdadır. Önde gelen ABD’li firmaların dış pazarlarda kendi üretim tesislerini kurmalarından dolayı ofis mobilyaları ihracatı sınırlı kalmıştır. ABD, Avrupa Birliği ve Doğu Asya ülkelerinden Çin, Tayvan, Malezya ve Endonezya dünya mobilya pazarında başlıca üretici ve ihracatçı ülkelerdir. Avrupa Birliği üreticileri monte edilmeye hazır mobilyaları gelişmiş makinalarla otomatik olarak yapmaktadır. Bazı Avrupa Birliği üreticileri üstün kaliteleri nedeniyle tamamen monte edilmiş ev mobilyaları ve ofis mobilyalarında dünya çapında üne sahiptir. Üstün kalite ve tasarımları sayesinde İtalyan mobilya üreticileri ev mobilyalarında (özellikle deri kanepeler ve oturma grupları) dünya pazarlarında rekabet edebilir durumdadır. Eğitilmiş ve düşük ücretli işgücü yanında, sürekli gelişen ağaç işleme, boyama ve cilalama yöntemleri ile Doğu Asya’lı üreticiler monte edilmeye hazır mobilya pazarında ABD’li üreticilerle etkili bir şekilde rekebet edebilmektedir. Kanada ve Meksika mobilyada ABD’nin en büyük ticaret ortakları oldukları halde dünya mobilya pazarında önemli bir yere sahip değildir. ABD mobilya sektöründe orta ve üst gelir grubuna yönelik tamamen monte edilmiş ev mobilyası en büyük paya sahiptir. Çok yüksek olan nakliye ücretleri bu tür mobilyaların ithalini kısıtlamaktadır. ABD’li üreticiler yüksek kaliteli ev ve ofis mobilyasında lider durumundadır. New York, Chicago, Los Angeles ve Washington ev mobilyasında en büyük pazarlardır. ABD’ye mobilya ithalatının yapıldığı ülkelerin başında Kanada gelmekte, bu ülkeyi Çin, Meksika, İtalya ve Tayvan izlemektedir. Çin’den yapılan ithalatın büyük çoğunluğu özellikle monte edilmeye hazır düşük ve orta düzeyde fiyatlandırılmış ahşap ev mobilyalarından oluşmaktadır. ABD’deki üretim yerlerine yakınlığından dolayı Kanada, ABD yapımı ev ve ofis mobilyaları için en önemli pazardır. Doğu Asya ülkelerinden üreticiler ABD’de orta ve üst gelir grubuna yönelik tamamen monte edilmiş mobilya üretim veya montaj tesisleri kurmuşlardır. ABD pazarındaki ORTA ANADOLU İHRACATÇI BİRLİKLERİ GENEL SEKRETERLİĞİ/AR-GE ŞUBESİ 2 yüksek kar marjı böyle bir politika değişikliğine yol açsa da Doğu Asya’dan yapılan mobilya ithalatının çoğunluğunu düşük fiyatlı mobilyalar oluşturmaktadır. Yüksek taşıma ücretleri, ABD malı tamamen monte edilmiş mobilyaların dış pazarlarda rekabet gücünü azaltmaktadır. Bu durumu ortadan kaldırmak amacıyla ABD’lı ev mobilyası üreticilerinden bazıları ve ofis mobilyası üreticilerinden birkaçı Avrupa ve Asya’da üretim tesisleri kurmuştur. ABD’de mobilya üretiminde kullanılan başlıca kereste çeşitleri; meşe, kiraz ağacı, kavak, akçaağaç ve çamdır. ABD’deki mobilya üreticileri başlıca üç gruba ayrılmaktadır: 1- Entegre üreticiler (ev ve ofıs mobilyası) 2- Monte edilmeye hazır malzemelerden ahşap veya kumaş kaplı ev mobilyası üreticileri 3- Özgün (belli bir kesime ve/veya modele yönelik üretim yapan) üreticiler. Doğu Asya ülkelerindeki ağaç işleme, boyama ve cilalama işlerinin kalitesinin ABD ve Avrupa Birliği ile yarışabilir duruma gelmesi, monte edilmeye hazır mobilyaların dizaynında meydana gelen gelişmelerin bu tür mobilyaların görünümünü klasik mobilyalara yakınlaştırması ve kolay monte edilebilmesi, ikili ve çok taraflı anlaşmalarla mobilyada gümrük vergisinin kaldırılması veya çok düşük oranlara indirilmesi sonucu mobilya ithalat maliyetinin azalması sonucu ev mobilyası pazarındaki uluslararası rekabet hergün daha da artmaktadır. Son yıllardaki olumlu gelişmelere rağmen, ABD’deki 20 üretim sektörü içerisinde en fazla iflasların olduğu dördüncü sektör mobilya sektörüdür. Mobilya üreticilerinin çoğunluğu 20 kişiden az istihdama sahip, yerel pazarlara yönelik çalışan ve bölgesel olumsuz ekonomik koşullardan daha fazla etkilenen firmalardır. Üretim kapasitesini artıracak yeterli mali güçleri ve büyük satıcıların ithiyacına cevap verecek kadar üretim kapasiteleri olmadığından küçük firmaların pazarda büyük üreticilere karşı rekabette başarılı olma imkanları bulunmamaktadır. 2- ABD MOBİLYA SEKTÖRÜ a) Yatırımlar ABD’li mobilya üreticileri ülke dışındaki pazarlara yönelik olarak yurtdışında yeterli düzeyde üretim tesisi kurmuşlardır. ABD’nin yurtdışındaki mobilya yatırımları 1994- 1998 döneminde (eldeki en son veriler) yıllık 1.2 milyar dolar olmuştur. Bu yatırımların çoğunluğu Avrupa Birliği ve Kanada’da yapılmıştır. Aynı dönemde ABD’de ORTA ANADOLU İHRACATÇI BİRLİKLERİ GENEL SEKRETERLİĞİ/AR-GE ŞUBESİ 3 yapılan yabancı sermayeli mobilya yatırımları ABD’li firmaların yurtdışı yatırımlarının yarısından az olmuştur. Avrupa Birliği ve Doğu Asya ülkelerinden mobilya şirketleri bu yatırımlarda büyük pay almıştır. Bir Alman şirketi olan Klaussner ABD’de dürdüncü büyük mobilya üreticisi olmuştur. Ayrıca, birçok Doğu Asya’lı firma

  • Protecting Israel's Forests Restoration – Heletz Fire Lookout Tower
    Photo: Bonnie Scheinman Protecting Israel's Forests Heletz Fire Lookout Tower – Restoration A fire lookout or watchtower is the first line of defense against devastating forest fires. The Heletz Fire Lookout Tower in the arid, northern Negev is one of forty fire lookouts built by KKL-JNF throughout Israel as part of its comprehensive fire prevention system to protect forests and open spaces. The Heletz Fire Lookout Tower is located about 10 km northwest of the city of Sderot, which for years has been the target of rocket and mortar attacks from the nearby Gaza Strip. The 12-meter-high watchtower is situated on a hill, 145 meters above sea level. It overlooks the planted forests of Yad Mordechai, Dorot, Plugot, Karmia, and Gvar'am and serves to protect the area's extensive agricultural fields. The lookout tower, made of galvanized steel pipes, was constructed more than a quarter of century ago, and with the ravages of time had been in need of repairs that were carried out by KKL-JNF. The Heletz Lookout Tower is manned during the summer months, from April to November, and has proven effective in reducing the number of forest fires in this vulnerable region. It 5220# affords a panoramic view of about 20 km, from Kiryat Gat in the east to the Ashkelon seacoast in the west, and beneath the tower, which covers an area of 100 meters, is a forest grove with a picnic and recreation area, making the Heletz Lookout Tower an inviting site for visitors. Project components for the repair of the Heletz Fire Lookout Tower included replacing windows, raising the railings, installing a safety net around the staircase, reinforcing the staircase, and replacing rusted steel surfaces.

  • Poetic Commemoration of the Battle in Huleikat Yael Shenker
    "The world is filled with remembering and forgetting": Poetic Commemoration of the Battle in Huleikat Yael Shenker and Omri Herzog Abstract The battles fought at Huleikat in the 1948 war tell a tangled and compelling story. Israeli fighters from various brigades fought there in several operations, and the area's conquest in 1948 was strategically significant for Israel. The article focuses on three memories or in fact three strategies of remembering that revolve around the site of these battles: the monument erected at the place, a photograph of Hill 138.5 in Huleikat taken by photographer Drora Dominey that was displayed in an exhibition of Israeli monuments, and a few poems of Yehuda Amichai who fought in that area and lost his close friend Dicky. Emulating terms of analysis proposed by Julia Kristeva this article makes a distinction between semiotic and symbolic memory and argues that Amichai's poetry, like the 138.5 Hill photograph, belongs in a semiotic realm that breaches the limits of consciousness and offers an alternative to national memory. The article further argues that these three memories enable us to trace the painful paths of individual and collective memory as well as the ways in which death mediates among memory, remembering, forgetfulness and obliteration in Israeli culture. The world is filled with remembering and forgetting like sea and dry land. Sometimes memory is the solid ground we stand on, sometimes memory is the sea that covers all things like the Flood. And forgetting is the dry land that saves, like Ararat.1 1 Yehuda Amichai. Patu'ah Sagur Patu'ah (Open Closed Open).

  • Israel Travel Guide You Are Reading Is a Greatly Expanded Version of One I First Prepared for an American Friend Some Two Decades Ago
    ISRAEL: A PERSONAL TRAVEL GUIDE By Douglas E. Duckett Cincinnati, Ohio, USA [email protected] ©2004-2016 Douglas E. Duckett All rights reserved. INTRODUCTION. The Israel travel guide you are reading is a greatly expanded version of one I first prepared for an American friend some two decades ago. In it, I have tried to share my experiences and knowledge of Israel based on a lifetime of study and fifteen visits to the country, most recently in May 2016. I enjoy independent travel, and this guide was written primarily with such travelers in mind, though I hope the information will be helpful to those on group tours as well. As an American, I have produced a guide that, no doubt, reflects that identify and experience. I hope my readers from other countries will forgive that, and still find useful information to help plan their trips. I am not in the travel industry. Rather, I am a labor lawyer who loves Israel passionately and wants to encourage others to travel there and experience this wonderful land. My first visit was in November 1988, and I caught the bug; thus I started visiting every other year or so thereafter, except for 2000-2004, the truly terrible years of the second Palestinian uprising and the terror bombings in Israel cities. Now, with partial retirement, I am going every year (God willing!). Even with the mostly peaceful conditions prevailing since then, some friends still asked, “are you sure you want to go back to Israel?” Of course, recent tensions in Jerusalem, with a wave of stabbing attacks on Israelis, have further increased those anxieties, even for me to some degree.
