At the moment, when new cotton comes into the market,

Many garment enterprises in Wuhan feel the cost pressure.

The owner of the clothing market, which is mainly in the field market, admitted that the price of the clothes on the factory went up accordingly, at least 30%.

The head of the local well-known enterprises, Taihe clothing purchasing department, recently said that the cotton fabric rose and the artificial cost increased, estimated the winter clothing cost increased by 15%, the company had to reduce the style of cotton padded jacket half, down clothes style correspondingly half.

But some enterprises also say that selling clothing is mainly selling brands, and the cost changes will not hurt the overall situation.

Wuhan Rong Rong costumes sold 160 thousand cotton sales.

Zhao Herong, general manager of the company, said that the increase in cotton prices led to an increase of about 10% of the cost. However, the cost of selling cotton jacket did not affect the overall situation, mainly because of the market recognition of product style design, brand image and sales network.

Another key is climate, cold weather and good business, and prices are naturally strong.

According to analysis, the main reason for the increase in cotton prices this year is the bad climate, resulting in a reduction in cotton production, resulting in a decline in stocks. The cotton planting area in the Yangtze River and the the Yellow River River Basin has dropped significantly.

At the same time, the demand for textile industry increased, driving the growth of cotton raw material demand.
