Small and medium sized companies with huge vigor are becoming an important element of the Chinese economy facing an unexpected development opportunity. According to modern management theories, almost all strategic tools or models are based on transnational firms" history. For such companies have a complete organization structure, mature operations, and other good management mechanism. Therefore, they can adjust their strategy to the business environments. But for the small and medium sized companies, which are in their initial stage with uncertainty, it is significant to make specific strategy for them. Underpinning the belief that the growth of small and medium-sized companies is critical to economic development, the present study analyzes hidden champions attaining revenues comparable with large companies despite of the size. Recently, these firms are highlighted as an advanced business-management model. In order to accomplish this purpose, the current study use analyzes real cases of hidden champions. The results of the case analysis indicates that critical factors for success involve a technology development competence, customer-oriented philosophies, export market-centered policies, and the excavation of niche-markets, which are directly related to the company, and the political supports of a government. Moreover, the results show that most firms are using these factors efficiently even though every factor is not equally important to all companies. Nevertheless, there is no doubt that some factors play extremely instrumental roles for such hidden champions to develope their core competences. The present study applies the SWOT model to analyze the Chinese hidden champions’ internal resources and external environments.
