Mr. Li has added a lot of export orders this year, but he is still unhappy.

2 months ago, his company exported a number of textiles to Europe, but when it checked out, it suddenly discovered that the contract was quoted in euros. Because the euro exchange rate continued to decline, it quietly evaporated nearly 100 thousand yuan profit.

According to statistics, Wenzhou's exports to the EU increased by 24% in the 1-6 months of this year, and exports to the European Union accounted for 27.5% of Wenzhou's total exports.

From the first half of the year's export data, the growth rate of exports to the European Union is 5.3% lower than that of Wenzhou's overall export growth.

Export companies generally expressed concern that, if the euro continued to fluctuate, exports to Europe would just shrink.
