As a product that people often come into contact with in daily life, the design of style, modeling and color matching should be gradually improved with the improvement of living space environment. Most of the general merchandise in China come from Yiwu. However, Yiwu’s department stores are seriously homogenized and of low quality. The priority of “cost-oriented” will not bring better experience to users. Moreover, it will leave a low-end impression on Yiwu general merchandise industry and affect its market competitiveness. In this paper, Yiwu general merchandise as the research object, from the perspective of user experience and user demand, using product identity (PI) design method, discusses the countermeasures to solve the existing problems in Yiwu general merchandise industry, and carries out enterprise and product image planning and design practice for individual Yiwu general merchandise department stores.
