Textile Information Exchange: The Direction Of Industry Development
Early in the morning, England
Dawson
Father and son (wool) Co., Ltd. Beijing representative office Zhang Huawei opened the notebook computer to check the latest exchange rate.
He has been engaged in wool import and export trade for nearly three years. It is a compulsory course to see the exchange rate changes everyday.
He told reporters that the exchange rate has become a decisive factor in the import and export price of wool to some extent, and the price of wool will definitely affect the cost of downstream woolen enterprises.
In recent years, the fluctuation of exchange rate has brought some pressure to wool traders and wool processing enterprises as well as downstream wool textile enterprises.
In fact, Zhang Huawei reflected only one aspect of today's Woolen raw material market from the perspective of traders. In July, 15 ~21, held in Harbin in 2010, "the national textile raw materials information exchange conference and the China wool chamber of Commerce seventh wool salons", from the analysis of the current situation by more than 100 representatives from the upper and lower reaches of the wool textile industry, we can see that the international economic environment facing the wool textile industry is more complex, and the industry development prospect is still uncertain, so the enterprises should operate rationally.
Price rises and raw material costs increase sharply.

Communication
Chinese journalists obviously felt the pressure faced by the upstream and downstream enterprises of the wool textile industry under the severe situation.
According to Feng Bing, Li Hua (Ningbo) wool industry Co., Ltd., the wool textile industry in the first half of this year can be described as "one high, one low, two or two short", that is, the price of raw materials is high, the order price is low, the number of orders is large, the expenses are much more, the workers are short of, and the wool processing enterprises are few.
At present, China's wool textile industry accounts for 35% of the gross wool in the world, and it mainly imports from Australia, South Africa, Uruguay and Argentina.
Affected by the appreciation of the Australian dollar against the US dollar, the price of wool settled in US dollars in the first four months of this year is continuously high.
It is understood that the Australian dollar against the dollar rose from 0.6005 lows in October 2008 to 0.92 in April 2010, an increase of 50%.
In addition, the rising price of wool is also related to the shrinking supply of wool.
In recent years, the wool production of major wool producing countries has shown a sharp decline. The wool output of Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia and other places also showed a downward trend.
Turning to the trend of wool prices, general manager Li Hua should believe that the gross price will not drop in the future.
He thinks that because Australia's wool production will only decrease, it will not increase. If we can maintain the current output, it will be very good.
In addition, Australia is an exporter of raw materials, and does not expect the exchange rate to be too high.
In view of the high price of wool, he suggested that domestic enterprises should "turn passivity into initiative" and strive for the initiative of wool price.
Yang Xiaoxiong, general manager of Nanjing wool market as a representative of traders, said that the fluctuation of exchange rate can not be left to anyone. The majority of enterprises should be steady and steady. They should not buy for the sake of ranking, but for production.
The freight forwarding problem is a matter of buying.
Imported raw materials
A neglected factor of cost.
To this end, Yuan Jianhua, general manager of Huawei International Freight Co., Ltd. in Shanghai, especially reminds enterprises that they must look for qualified freight forwarders when buying foreign wool, so that they do not plan to find a freight forwarder without qualification, so as to avoid the additional cost of freight forwarding.
In fact, it is cheaper to find qualified international freight forwarders.
Recruitment is hard to work.
Zhejiang Yun yuan wool textile raw material Co., Ltd. is located in Tongxiang City, Zhejiang, near the largest sweater market in the country. It is close to the 320 National Road. Recently, a lot of recruitment notices were posted in front of the company.
Strangely enough, the number of applicants was limited. Some applicants even left the employment contract even though they signed the employment contract, and the company had to continue recruiting. This is what the company chairman Zhang Qingyun described to reporters.
He said the company currently has 8 production lines to produce wool and carbonized wool, but two of which still lack more than 20 workers.
Zhang Qingyun told reporters that recruitment has been made in the past month, although the wages of workers have been raised, but the effect is still bad.
Talking about the reasons, Zhang Qingyun thinks that the sweaters around the company have taken away the workers. The wages of these workers are more than 1500 yuan higher than that of his initial processing enterprises.
Driven by two factors, such as the rising import price of wool and the decline in order price of wool and other processed products, the profit of the company is relatively low, and the relative employment conditions are relatively worse than that of the sweater enterprises.
Zhang Qingyun sighed, "it's not easy to do business. It's not easy to do wool business. It's really not possible. I moved the factory back to Heze's hometown in Shandong."
During the meeting, the reporter learned that enterprises such as Zhang Qingyun are facing difficulties in recruiting workers and increasing labor costs.
Tianjin Tianyang Textile Co., Ltd. is located in the Tianjin high tech Textile Industrial Park. Liu Quanlin, chairman of the company, said that 2010 is the turning point of the wool textile industry. The pressure is too great in all aspects, especially the shortage of labor and the high cost of labor. They have thought a lot of ways, but the effect is also very unsatisfactory.
A while ago, they recruited some workers from Qinghai, and they were sent to Tianjin by plane. As a result, they visited the Binhai New Area and left.
He explained that some high-tech enterprises in the vicinity of the textile industrial park had better conditions and had taken away quite a number of workers.
In order to maintain production, the company also wants a lot of ways, such as raising wages, pforming technical equipment, improving labor productivity and so on, but the situation is still grim.
Sui Qingxi, general manager of Yantai Heng Jia Cashmere Products Co., Ltd., Shandong, sighed, "labor intensive enterprises are very difficult to grow bigger and stronger. I'm afraid we will have to move to some countries such as Vietnam in 10 years."
Wu Shuangxi, the general manager of Hebei fashion textile company, who nodded on the side, nodded repeatedly. He said that his company also thought a lot of ways, such as the introduction of free lunch and shuttle bus to work, but it was still difficult to retain people, "no way to raise."
He said, now the market situation is not good, a little profit is good.
Comprehensive factors affecting exports may be high before and after low.
Since 2010, with the gradual improvement of the international market, the continuous exuberant domestic demand market, the further acceleration of the industrial structure adjustment, and the combined factors such as the low base year of last year, the production, marketing, export, efficiency and investment of the wool textile industry have achieved steady growth, and the overall operation of the industry has remained good.
In the first half of this year, gross exports of raw materials and textiles and garments in 1~5 months amounted to US $3 billion 180 million, an increase of 21.95% over the same period last year, with an increase of 35.20 percentage points over the same period last year.
However, judging from the current situation, the situation in the second half of this year will not be optimistic. The export business of the whole year is expected to show a trend of high before and after low.

At present, in addition to the rising prices of raw materials and employment problems, the demand for energy conservation and emission reduction and environmental protection has been further improved. Financing difficulties, the pressure of RMB appreciation and the rise of trade protectionism have brought many challenges to the survival of enterprises.
During the meeting, several wool textile enterprises in Zhejiang reflected to reporters. Recently, Zhejiang demanded high energy consumption enterprises to stop production for 15 days, which affected the production schedule of enterprises.
At the same time, in order to meet the requirements of environmental protection, enterprises must invest more funds in the construction of this area, and the prices of production factors such as energy and power are also showing an upward trend, which will lead to an increase in production costs of textile enterprises.
On the other hand, the unemployment rate of the major developed economies such as Europe and the United States is at a historical high level, restricting the growth of personal consumption. Japan's demand for woollen textile products is also not strong due to the continued economic slump.
European countries and the United States and Japan are also the major consumer countries of wool textile products. Therefore, the demand for international market has slowed down sharply last year, and the recovery rate will also be slow.
Then, because of the low inventory, the centralized export orders, the shorter delivery time and the shortage of labor, the export business in the second half of this year is not optimistic.
