Shoe Clothing Processing Trade Enterprises Encountered Cold Winter

The main business of manufacturing and exporting low-end products is becoming more and more difficult with the adjustment of national policies.

A few days ago, the Ministry of Commerce and the General Administration of Customs jointly issued the Announcement No. 110th in 2007, announces the second batch of banned catalogue of processing trade, totaling 589 10 customs coded goods, and the new catalogue has been implemented since January 21st.

The reporter learned from the Zhongshan customs that the adjustment of the catalogue will affect Zhongshan's three major industries, and the relevant enterprises should be prepared as soon as possible.

It is understood that the newly banned catalogue of processing trade mainly deals with animal products, plant products, animal and vegetable oils and fats, food, beverages, mineral products, chemical products, plastics and their products, steel and products, and aluminum products.

In addition, some products containing endangered species of plant and plant are also banned, including leather products, animal hair and their fabrics, shoes and boots, jewelry products, glasses, clocks and miscellaneous products.

Before that, in April 2007, the first batch of catalogue of prohibited products in processing trade was announced. A total of 1140 commodities were listed in the prohibited category. This adjustment will prohibit the further expansion of the scope of processing trade.

A business expert at the Zhongshan customs office at Shiqi office said that the adjustment of the catalogue of processing trade prohibition and restriction will become the norm. The purpose is to optimize the structure of China's export commodities, suppress exports of products with low added value and low technology content, and promote the pformation and upgrading of processing trade, thus realizing the pformation of the growth mode of foreign trade.

Judging from the published catalogue, three industries in Zhongshan are affected, that is, the chemical industry, which refers mainly to the production of paints, steel processing and aluminum manufacturing.

Since the three major industries in Zhongshan are large and medium sized enterprises, enterprises should take the initiative to adapt to the new regulations.

He said that the adjustment of catalogues is a test of the management and management capabilities of enterprises. If the relevant enterprises are confined to the primary processing products with low technological content, the blow is almost fatal.

Zhongshan customs reminds enterprises that the threshold of processing trade is getting higher and higher. On the one hand, enterprises should invest more in technological pformation, pfer low-end products with low technology level, backward production technology and easily cause trade friction to high-end, high-tech products with higher technology content and greater value-added links; on the other hand, enterprises should make efforts to adjust terminal market and expand more markets in China.
