One meter cotton rose five or six yuan a week.

The increase in cotton prices is not only affected by the reduction of cotton production, but also related to the volume of supply.

Wei Huanxiu, director of the three hole Bridge Old Wei cloth shop, said that the supply of cotton cloth this year was much less than that of previous years, and the volume of goods being reduced by half was about 6 yuan higher than that of last year.

The price of low-grade cotton cloth rose from 10 yuan / meter to 13 yuan / meter, although the increase was not the biggest, but the fabric had changed, the polyester content increased, up to about 70%.

The middle grade cotton cloth is also the most commonly used cotton cloth in general families, rising from 18 yuan to 20 yuan per meter, an increase of about 5 yuan over the previous years.

The price of high-grade cotton cloth has not changed much.

The rise in fabric prices has also pushed up the prices of related products.

Reporters learned from the new world mall that the prices of bedspreads, quilts, sofa covers, curtains and other products have been improved.

"The general curtain needs 6 meters and 6 meters of cloth. Now it costs 0.5 yuan to 1 yuan per meter, and the cost of light material is about 30 yuan."

Miss Wang, who manages curtains business, said.

It costs forty or fifty yuan to make quilts.

"Before the national day, cotton is only 32 yuan / kg. How can it be sold to 40 yuan / kilogram now?" recently, the temperature continued to cool down. Aunt Wang of Ji'nan plans to make a new quilt, but after asking the price of a quilt shop near her home, she accused the shopkeeper of "no real".

Shop owner Wang quickly explained to her that the price rise was not because he deliberately raised the price, but because the price of cotton had gone up.

Since July, the wholesale price of cotton quilts has increased by eight or nine yuan.

But in the past half a month, even after two rises in price, he really can not afford the pressure of rising cost, and raise the price once and for all. This has also attracted many old customers' dissatisfaction and thought that he is not running a good faith.

How much does it cost to make a quilt this year? Mr. Wang has made an account of it. If a quilt is used for 2.5 kilograms of cotton, the quality cotton price will rise to 40 yuan / kg from last year's 22 yuan / kg, up 18 yuan per kilogram, and the price of cotton quilt increased by 45 yuan per cotton quilt, plus the cotton cloth used. Even the cheapest one, at least 3 yuan per meter, now making a quilt is at least 50 yuan more than last year.

Prices are rising, and sales of quilts have also been cold in the peak season.

"Ask a lot, actually do little.

Many people came to ask the price and felt too expensive to do it.

A lot of people who can do or not give up the plan of quilting, some people who want to get married with new quilts, and also cut down their plans.

Kangle's quilt shop salesman said.

The price of a pair of underwear increased by three yuan.

With the increase of cotton prices, underwear prices such as autumn clothes, trousers, thermal underwear, cotton shirts and so on are gradually increasing.

Ms. Wang, who sells underwear in the civil air defense mall, said she was shocked by the purchase 3 days ago.

More than 10 yuan a pair of ladies underwear, once increased by 3 yuan.

Compared with the wholesale price in the past, it rose by a few times, and this time it increased by 30%.

What worries her more is that the price increases are fierce, but the upstream suppliers' stock is not large, and the color is not complete, and the price is too high to keep up with them.

Ms. Li, a wholesale agent of duck and north polar, said that since the clothing of these warm underwear, autumn clothes and autumn trousers began to arrive, the price has increased considerably. The average price of each piece of twenty or thirty yuan and one piece of autumn clothes and trousers has increased by 7 yuan, and the cotton shirts have been raised by about 15% each, and the thermal underwear has increased 20% to 25% per unit.

Ms. Li said that because of the tight clothing, there were quite a few kinds of goods that had just entered the market, and most of the goods were not fully available recently, and still in short supply.

Even if there are sufficient funds, we can only queue up at the gate of the manufacturer and cash for goods.

Manufacturers are now shipping 1:1 only. How much cash do they take?

Nevertheless, sales are still much worse than before. "It was good to get $3000 a day and 1500 yuan now."

Winter clothing will be more expensive if affected.

Because of the rising prices of cotton and cotton, the prices of autumn clothes began to increase. Chen Rui, a clothing store owner who entered some of the autumn clothes before September, said that the coat that cost 100 yuan a year last year is now 120 yuan.

And the winter coat will go up more.

Chen Rui said, "the price of raw materials has increased and labor costs have risen, which has led to the fact that clothing prices have to rise."

Although the autumn and winter clothing has not yet arrived, the price hikes are already obvious. The price of autumn clothes is not obvious yet, but the price of winter clothing has increased by at least 20%. The most expensive coat last year was 1200 yuan, and this year it will be 1600 yuan. The price of Ji'nan's most expensive coat is not obvious.

"But we also have a grade for clothing this year, and cotton has more and more autumn and winter clothes.

Because of the rising price of raw materials such as cotton, retail prices have to go up. "

If the public is aware of the labels of the products, it will find that there are not many 100% cotton coats this year.

In the cloud clothes counter, the price of a spring windbreaker is 700 yuan, and the newly listed autumn coat is 800 yuan. Compared with the 100% cotton thin windbreaker, the material of the autumn dress is added with polyester, spandex and other materials.

The same situation also appears in underwear counters. The largest quantity of cotton is used in thermal underwear, and only a small part of the new underwear of some big brands. Pure cotton materials only account for a small part of this year. Some new brands of underwear, such as Ann Li Fang and so on, have been converted to new fiber materials this year.

Whether underwear or underwear, mostly modle material, some brands also have new bamboo fiber, beech wood fiber and other materials, these new materials contain the highest cotton content is only 60%.

Although many stores say that cotton clothes are easy to pilling, new materials can make clothes more comfortable, but industry sources say that reducing cotton content is actually a way to resolve costs.

Winter wear will increase more than autumn wear.

Mr. Li, an agent of cloud clothing, said that because the production of branded garments had an advance volume, the autumn clothing was generally produced in June and July, but a part of winter clothing production is catching up with the price increase of cotton in August and September, and with the increase of cotton consumption, one coat has increased by 40% over last year.

Cotton prices are high and wholesalers business is harder to do.

"I have been doing cotton business for 8 years, and I have never encountered such a price increase in cotton cloth. The price is too abnormal this year."

Jiang Dangyan, manager of Ji'nan three hole bridge textile market Hongyuan home textile Xiaojiang cloth industry, said that the price increase was not only affected by the public, but even his wholesaler felt that the business was hard to do.

As cotton prices continue to rise, now the purchase can only be cash pactions, how much to pay for the amount of goods, the old customers can not take the goods in advance.

Jiang Dangyan said that because of the tight supply of cotton cloth, some traders who had been trading for many years could not give them any debts.

"For example, in the past year, we could only take 400 thousand of the goods ahead of time if we paid 200 thousand yuan, but now we can't afford to pay much cash, and how much will it be?"

In order to deal with the shortage of stock, they can only find more suppliers this year, just in case.

Chen Yu cotton industry manager Yang said, as long as the previous supplier to make a phone call, goods can be sent, and now can only rely on cash, cotton in the province can no longer meet the needs of the current, they have to find channels from other provinces, and not how much you want, how much you can see only the face of the supplier, how much to give, the volume of goods is less than 30% years old.

Cotton prices will continue to rise year by year.

Zhang Zhiqiang, director of the price monitoring center of Ji'nan Price Bureau, said that the cotton market was relatively low last year. In addition, many cotton growing areas were affected by rainwater weather this year, causing the cotton to be affected. The harvest time of the new batch of seed cotton was postponed, the total output of cotton was reduced, and the supply of cotton was temporarily in short supply, and the price of cotton increased, resulting in the price of related products rising.

It is estimated that cotton prices will continue to rise year by year, but the rate will not be great. With the increase of import and inventory related policies, cotton products, such as quilts, cotton padded clothes, sheets and so on, are necessities, but there is far less consumption of essential commodities such as oil, salt, vinegar, tea and so on. The impact of cotton prices will not last long.
