In the first 8 months of this year, the export characteristics of shoes at Shenzhen port, Shenzhen customs experts believe that this year, although the Shenzhen port shoe exports have maintained rapid growth, but the growth rate slowed down in August, which is mainly affected by the external market environment fluctuations dominated by Europe and the United States, such as the euro area unemployment rate maintained at a historical high of 10%, the US economic recovery rate is slower than expected.

These uncertainties increased, resulting in the weakening of the export of shoes at Shenzhen port.

The reporter learned from the interview that the export of China's footwear industry is facing many factors and the situation is grim.

Specifically, the industry is facing two pressures: low price orders and rising costs.

Europe and the United States

Not yet restored, many companies take small profits but quick turnover strategies in order to fight for orders. Many enterprises have to buy orders at low prices in order to maintain operation and keep their share.

Since the beginning of this year, under the operating environment of continuous rising production costs, such as leather, rubber, etc., the main production material of shoes manufacturing industry has increased significantly, and the profit margins of enterprises have been further squeezed.

Customs data show that in the first 8 months of this year, the average price of cattle leather and horse leather imported from Shenzhen port increased by 41.6% over the same period last year, and the average import price of natural rubber increased by 62.3% over the same period last year.

However, the average export price of shoes at Shenzhen ports did not rise or fall during the same period, only 2.2 US dollars per pair, down 4.3% from the same period last year.

Trade protection measures continue to increase and raise export thresholds.

If the Spanish government recently issued policies and regulations on imported shoes, it will compare the imported shoes with the same or similar products in the customs catalogue. If the price of these shoes is lower than that in the customs catalog, the goods will be seized, and the relevant footwear dealers will be able to get the goods back after they pay the customs duties, VAT and corresponding penalties according to the catalog price.

More than 40 large businesses in the United States are working on a new industry standard to limit lead content in handbags and footwear, and will be formally implemented in December 1st, and the new standard may extend to belts and other popular accessories.

To this end, customs experts suggest that we should give full play to the guiding role of the government and industry associations, set up a buying and selling platform for enterprises, and actively and orderly develop new markets.

At the same time, we should set up a common information platform to understand the technical requirements of the national market for product quality in real time, guide enterprises to upgrade their technological level, pform their development mode, and constantly improve their competitiveness.

In addition, effective measures should be taken to guide enterprises to increase domestic sales and diversify trade risks.
