Heilongjiang Shoe Exports Increase, Prices Fall

The reporter learned from the Harbin customs that in the first half of this year, Heilongjiang exported 130 million pairs of shoes, 1.1 times higher than the same period last year. The value was 380 million dollars, an increase of 60.8%, and the average export price was 5.2 dollars / double, down 21.3%.

According to customs officials, the international financial market is still in turmoil, and the world economy is recovering slowly.

Although the state has raised the export tax rebate rate for the two time in order to promote the export of footwear trade, it has actively created favorable conditions for improving the level of enterprise profitability and reducing the pressure of business operation. However, influenced by the rise of trade protectionism, the rising cost of raw materials and the pressure of RMB appreciation, the situation of China's labor-intensive and low value-added footwear exports is more severe.

The analysts suggest that Heilongjiang should further adjust the industrial structure of the footwear industry, improve the quality of the products, guide the shoe enterprises to speed up the upgrading of the products, and turn from quantitative to quality benefit, and actively consolidate the product recognition of the traditional markets such as Russia.

Grasp the relatively relaxed time of Russian market access standards, support the development of shoe processing industry in Russian industrial parks, and alleviate some export pressure.

We should pay close attention to and actively respond to the adverse effects brought by the appreciation of the RMB exchange rate.

Help enterprises use foreign currencies to import advanced production equipment and raw materials from abroad and get expected profits.
