Upgrading And Pformation Of Shoemaking Enterprises In Liandu Under The Crisis

Under the background of the financial crisis, "labor shortage" and "shortage of skilled workers" bring about the upward force of industrial pformation and upgrading for labor-intensive enterprises.

Since 2006, half of the shoe-making enterprises stationed in the Bi Hu Industrial block in Liandu have adjusted their product structure, or tested the new industry, or delayed the development of advanced machinery and equipment, or shifted from labor-intensive to technology intensive.

In April 22nd, when reporters came to Lishui bin Di Industrial Co., Ltd. located on Jinniu street in Bi Hu Town, there was a big red paper on the door of the company.

"Provide three meals and accommodation, well paid..."

Pan Guoqin, general manager of the enterprise, told reporters that all the dormitories were equipped with air conditioners, and that employees did not need to bring their daily necessities to work.

It is still a difficult problem for the traditional labor intensive enterprises to ignore the difficulties of recruitment and labor shortage after the financial crisis.

Pan Guoqin said that the manufacturing process of shoemaking enterprises is complex. An enterprise with an annual output of 3 million pairs of leather shoes needs to employ 300 to 400 people. After the pformation of "BDI", we will make blanket blankets, and we will need more than 100 workers to achieve the same output value.

Despite the shortage of workers, carpet manufacturing relies on automatic mechanized production lines. Each hand plays a bigger role than before.

Pan Guoqin said with emotion, "the way of production should be innovated. It is no longer feasible to build a market based on labor intensive and low cost like before."

The Lishui Chen Yi Technology Co., Ltd., which is stationed in the Bi Hu industrial area with the Lishui bin Di Industrial Co., Ltd., was formerly known as Lishui Oushi shoes and Garments Co., Ltd.

From the shoe and garment industry to a professional manufacturer of high-end STN and LCD liquid crystal display devices, the enhancement of its added value is self-evident.

"The technical content of shoes and clothing enterprises is relatively low, especially under the impact of the financial turmoil, the disadvantages of all aspects are more apparent."

Ni Guosong, chairman of Zhejiang Chen Yi Technology Co., Ltd., said that with the rising price of raw materials and the low export situation, shoemaking enterprises almost fell into the plight of survival in the era of meager profits.

Instead of being in a mire, it is better to take the initiative to survive.

In 2009, Ni Guosong led his team down to Shenzhen to introduce a team of people with core production processes and key technologies.

After more than 1 years of preparation, the order has been continuously put into operation since March this year.

Song Xuejun, general manager of the company, said that Zhejiang province is a complete seller's market with only a complete set of production processes before and after "Chen Yi", which is fully equipped and professionally produced STN and LCD liquid crystal display devices. Now the production is chased by the market, and the output value is expected to reach billion yuan this year.

Editor's note:

Recruitment difficulties, low cost advantages no longer, export situation is grim, constantly testing the viability of labor-intensive enterprises.

Before, labor intensive enterprises used low price competition more frequently. This strategy has helped many enterprises develop rapidly.

But after years of development, this strategy is no longer valid. When the work is turned into work and workers, when the competitiveness of export products comes from product quality rather than low cost, labor-intensive enterprises really need to explore the gateway to new development.

Several shoemaking enterprises in Liandu were able to feel the pressure of pformation from the financial turmoil in a timely manner. They conscientiously applied the forced mechanism of the development of the industry and made bold adjustments to upgrade the pformation. With the development of high added value products and the entry of new industries to resolve the high cost constraints of the original industry, a new road worth learning was recovered.
