Although the RMB appreciation expectation is a problem that plagued the export enterprises, but at the China international textile fabrics and Accessories Expo held recently in Shanghai New International Expo Center, I found that many enterprises feel the most pain is not the exchange rate change, but the price rise of raw materials such as cotton and chemical fiber.

Shanghai Sina Ze import and Export Co., Ltd. is a silk fabric production and export enterprise.

The colorful silk fabrics are very nice on the booth, but Miss Luo's face is somewhat dignified.

She told me that the price of raw materials white silk has doubled since October last year. At present, the market price of white silk has exceeded RMB 340 thousand yuan per ton.

Although the company has its own factory, its export price is basically unprofitable due to the fact that the price of fabric export simply can not keep up with the price increase of raw materials.

She said that compared with the appreciation of the renminbi, the price increase of raw materials will cause more damage to enterprises.

Located in Lanxi, Zhejiang, Jin Su Textile Co., Ltd. is a large textile manufacturer specializing in denim fabrics and garments.

Export volume

More than 30 million dollars.

According to a salesperson who does not want to disclose his name, the company has been afraid to take orders since the second half of this year, because the price of raw materials such as cotton and cotton yarn has been rising too fast. The rise in cost has caused the cost to rise. Foreign businessmen are unwilling to undertake and they can not digest themselves, so they can only take a few orders.

Take cotton yarn as an example. In August this year, the price per ton was 35 thousand yuan, and now it is 44 thousand yuan.

Cotton yarn is almost a price per day, and the price rises from 1000 yuan to 2000 yuan.

According to some exhibitors and professional spectators attending the textile fabric exhibition, the price rise of raw materials has become the most common headache for textile exporters in China at present. The main reason is the imbalance between market supply and demand.

In China, although cotton purchase prices have risen considerably this year, cotton farmers have not received substantial benefits, so cotton growers' enthusiasm for cotton planting has not improved significantly.

In addition, frequent natural disasters this year will lead to a slight reduction in domestic cotton production.

On the market, the largest cotton exporter in the world has reduced the area of cotton fields in the United States and reduced its production. The second largest cotton grower in the world, India, issued export restrictions this year. Pakistan, one of the main cotton growing countries, suffered a major flood disaster this year, resulting in a sharp decline in cotton production.

All these factors have resulted in a decrease in cotton supply and an increase in prices.

At present, China has become the largest textile and garment export country in the world.

cotton

With the increasing demand for raw materials, China's cotton imports accounted for about 1/3 of the world's total last year.

According to the statistics released by the General Administration of customs, from January to September this year, China's clothing exports amounted to 93 billion 488 million US dollars, and the export of textile yarns and fabrics was US $56 billion 327 million, which was higher than the highest 7.35% in 2008 and 12.97% in the same period in 2008.

The rising demand at home and abroad and the shortage of raw materials in textile and clothing have become a major obstacle to the export of textiles such as textiles in China, and may affect the development of China's textile industry within a certain number of years.
