Clothing Supplier Li Feng Dispersed Procurement To Relieve China'S Pressure

Events in the past few months have clearly demonstrated that China's labor costs are rising.

Other manufacturing economies in Asia are also affected.

So is Le Yumin, President of Li & Fung Ltd., Bruce Rockowitz.

Li Feng is a neighbor of Hongkong's trade and logistics industry. The main toys of WAL-MART and Wal-Mart are Target.

Le Yumin announced the half year of Li Feng in Hongkong on Thursday.

But the labor force in these countries and

He said that these countries do not say all of them, at least most of them are looking for guidelines for pricing from China. When the price of China rises, most other countries will follow up. There is also the problem of rising labor costs in other parts of the world outside China.

Li Feng plays an intermediary role between manufacturers in China and Southeast Asia and retailers in Europe and the United States.

The company has a good understanding of the trade and manufacturing of global consumer goods.

Of the goods it handles, China makes slightly over half, Southeast Asia accounts for 21%, and South Asia accounts for 15%.

The fastest growth in output in the first half of the year was India, with an increase of 27%, while Vietnam and India increased by 19% and 15% respectively.

China has increased by 10%.

Le Yumin said, we are experiencing a major change in the manufacturing industry, and this change will only be calm after several years.

The rise is not just about labor costs.

He said raw material prices have also risen and commodity prices have risen. Overall, cost pressures must exist, though the market is relatively weak.

Retailers will have to digest these increased costs themselves rather than pass them on to consumers who are short of money.

Le Yumin said that most retailers are accepting price increases, and they have no choice.

Not only in China

In the overall view of the economy, Le Yumin feels that consumer sentiment has fluctuated in the past few weeks.

He said, for retailers, although no matter how the business has not declined significantly, but it has not been able to compare with that year; now the slowdown is certainly not the two time, consumers are still spending money; this is a change, and we do not know how long it will last.
