In the 1-4 month of this year, the United States imported 8 billion 699 million dollars of textiles and clothing from China, down by 2.64%.

Lixin cloth street of Guangzhou Zhongda textile circle has been entangled in the past big and small goods vehicles.

Now, the whole street is quiet and even lazy. At three o'clock in the afternoon, the streets are deserted.

"This is hardly the difficulty that Chinese textile industry has ever encountered. The appreciation of RMB and the rising cost of enterprises are mixed with many factors."

Sun Huaibin, director of the China Textile Industry Association Information Center, said that the association is lobbying in various ways to promote textile export policy adjustment.

This month, the central high level frequently visited the key areas of manufacturing, and the textile industry became the focus of the government.

Wen Jiabao, premier of the State Council, went to Jiangsu and Shanghai. Xi Jinping, vice president of the state, went to Guangdong. Vice Premier Wang Qishan went to Shandong. Minister of Commerce Chen Deming and vice premier Li Keqiang went to Wenzhou.

The launching of large-scale research is interpreted as a harbinger of government support policies.

It is reported that the textile export tax rebate rate will increase by 2 percentage points, the export rebate rate of clothing will be increased by 4 percentage points, and the export tax rebate of viscose fiber will be raised to 15 points from the current 5 points. The policy is expected to be introduced from the end of this month to the beginning of next month.

However, the Ministry of commerce did not respond to specific details, saying only that it had submitted the adjustment proposal to the relevant ministries and commissions, and had to wait for the final approval of the Ministry of industry and information technology and the State Council.

Times are hard and the two are under pressure.

"I have been doing textile for more than ten years, and I have never encountered such a thin market.

Upstream raw materials continue to rise, downstream clothing exports have dropped sharply, two heads under pressure, everyone is still vicious competition.

Liang Guangquan, chairman of Jiamei Textile Co., said, shaking his head.

Liang's office hangs three clocks, one can know the time of three time zones in New York, Paris and Beijing, but now the internal and external sales are the same.

"There used to be a customer who orders millions of dollars, but not fifty thousand or sixty thousand dollars this year."

Liang Guangquan said that last year, all kinds of cloth exported directly by Jiamei accounted for 50% of the annual sales volume. This year less than 20%. "if last year was 3 dollars a metre cloth, this year the customer asked for no increase in price.

Now, raw materials and labor are rising, but not raising prices can not be done.

In Liang Guangquan's view, the global economy is weak, and international buyers prefer to digest their inventory first, and be more cautious when choosing new fabrics and clothing.

According to the US Department of Commerce's textile office data, in the 1-4 month of this year, the United States imported 8 billion 699 million US dollars of textiles and clothing from China, down by 2.64%. compared with the same period last year, of which imports were $2 billion 948 million, an increase of 6.74% compared with the same period last year, and imports of clothing were US $5 billion 751 million, down by 6.84%.

The men's wear Department of the two floor of Guangzhou white horse clothing city, Mr. Gump, has been sticking to it for seven years. After the contract expires two months later, he intends to leave and pfer to another camp.

"In the past, there were customers everywhere, packed and pported in bulk, and now the business is light."

Mr. Gan said that the appreciation of the RMB exchange rate was too fast and the export business of stalls was basically stopped.

"It was not a problem to sell twenty thousand pieces of clothing a year before, and now the most is seven thousand or eight thousand, and the renting is not earned."

Interviewed for more than half an hour, no one patronized Mr. Gan's stalls.

He said that when the booth was rentals from other people, the rent would be 23 thousand yuan a month, and "now the sublease will be fifteen thousand, down by 35%".

Government extensive research and brewing bailout

In fact, the impact of the textile and garment industry has spread to the upstream and downstream industries.

According to the National Bureau of statistics, the 1-5 month profit of the chemical fiber industry, which is the main raw material of the textile industry, dropped by 26.8%.

A boss who did not want to be named told reporters that the gross profit margin of the textile industry was around 5%, which was based on the volume. "This year's profit has dropped by at least 30%, even if it can be fair."

China Textile Industry Association's survey shows that in the first quarter of this year, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shandong and other 6 provinces and cities, the average profit of 2/3 enterprises in the textile industry is only 0.62%..

Asked the boss, a stall at Lixin Bu street.

Under the gloomy market, textile and garment export provinces such as Zhejiang and Jiangsu have become the key areas of research such as Ministry of Commerce and State Administration of taxation.

On July 4th, Chen Deming, Minister of Commerce, took part in the "Zhejiang business and Trade Association Symposium on business situations". He stressed that at present, there will be no regulation of the manufacturing sector at the policy level. In view of the issue of RMB exchange rate, it is suggested that enterprises "make good use of US dollar assets and look for opportunities in crisis".

Two days later, Vice Premier Li Keqiang of the State Council also visited Wenzhou.

"The state has attached great importance to the survival of textile enterprises. The purpose of the survey is to prevent inflation and prevent economic downturn."

Cao Xinyu, vice president of the China Textiles Import and Export Chamber of Commerce, said.
