Cotton Prices Skyrocketed To Boost Clothing Prices By &Nbsp; Next Spring Up At Least 30%.

Core findings:

According to the textile industry, one of the reasons for the increase in cotton prices is the relationship between supply and demand.

At the same time, there is a cotton bosses think that 60% of Xinjiang cotton are hoarding in the hands of investors, hot money is the backstage driver of this wave of rise, the the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region government put forward the "Prohibition of commercial banks to engage in cotton purchase of individual and private loans" and the deputy director of the development and Reform Commission price department's interview statement also confirms this view.

An original price of 100 yuan for women's clothing, fabric costs increased by 8.4 yuan, accessories, labor costs rose 4 yuan.

Even if manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers maintain their original profits, the price of this dress now reaches 112.4 yuan.

November 5th, "seven Jinpu road" new Jinpu luggage and clothing.

Cheap Road, dubbed "cheap road", has always been known for its low price.

However, on the seven Pu Road merchants, they began to raise their prices quietly in the sound of price rises.

When the "crazy cotton" rose 170% from September 2nd this year, the entire garment industry chain was under the pressure of rising prices.

Wholesaler: the factory is up 1 yuan a day.

The factory price exceeds the wholesale price in two months.

Wang Ling's main customers are those on the street clothes shop and the shopkeepers of Taobao shop.

As the weather became cooler, the thickened pajamas of multi-storey cotton became the main products in her shop.

The price of this style pajamas in the Taobao shop is usually between 100 yuan and 130 yuan.

Because of the use of cotton in fabrics, the rise of such pajamas is also the biggest in this wave of price rises.

Wang Ling told the Morning Post reporter that 10 days ago, the price they received from the manufacturer was 70 yuan to 80 yuan per piece.

In just 10 days, the factory price of each pajamas has been mentioned from 80 yuan to 90 yuan.

"This kind of pajamas costs about 2 meters of cloth on the first floor, and three layers of cotton is equivalent to 6 meters of material for a garment.

In these ten days, the price of cotton cloth has increased by more than 1 yuan, and it has been almost 10 yuan by 6 meters.

Wang Ling can understand the difficulties of the manufacturers, but this situation almost 1 yuan per day is far beyond her expectations.

"The price is almost 1.5 times that of last year."

Wang Ling recalled that in the same period last year, the production price of this style pajamas was around 60 yuan.

Although clothing has been rising for a year, the second half of this year has been particularly strong. "It has been the first time that it has gone so far."

For Wang Ling, the rise in prices is not a good thing.

Although she also raised the wholesale price by nearly 10 yuan, she still felt that she had suffered a loss: "how much money do I sell clothes and how much money I earn now?"

But after the price rises, sales will definitely fall.

On the other hand, in order to retain the old customers, Wang Ling sometimes had to "eat in" or "increase", "manufacturers plus 10 yuan, but I dare not add 10 yuan to retailers, sometimes add six or seven yuan, the other side is very dissatisfied."

In a wholesale cotton sweater pants shop berth, owner Chen Xiaoli's feeling is also "business difficult to do".

Chen Xiaoli's cotton jersey trousers are also made of cotton and also up by 10%.

"Two months ago, I got 22 yuan and 24 yuan.

Now, I need 25 yuan for the purchase and 27 yuan for the sale.

If I don't raise the price, the price will be higher than the selling price. "

Chen Xiaoli reluctantly indicated that he did not gain profits from the price increase, but sales volume declined.

Clothing factory: to withstand the full range of price increases

The cost of a coat has risen from 120 yuan to 160 yuan.

For a large number of small and medium-sized clothing enterprises, "crazy cotton" is forcing their products to go crazy.

Wang Qianjin, editor in chief of the first textile network, said: "for small businesses whose brand premium is relatively low, the cost of fabric may account for six or seven of the garment factory price."

According to the data, the price of cotton cloth has risen by 20% to 30% in the past two months.

Take an ordinary knitted dress in Cheap Road market as an example.

The original retail price of the dress was around 100 yuan, the retailer received 45 yuan from wholesalers, and the wholesaler's purchase price from the manufacturer was 40 yuan.

In the 40 yuan, the fabric price is 28 yuan according to the fabric cost of 70%.

After the price increase, the fabric cost increased by 8.4 yuan, plus the increase of other expenses such as labor, accessories, pportation, storage and so on. The ex factory price was 12.4 yuan higher than the price rise.

Even if manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers maintain their original profits, the price of this dress now reaches 112.4 yuan.

A boss engaged in cotton purchasing predicted that "next spring up at least 30%."

Besides the fabric, other factors are also pushing up the price of clothing.

Even clothing manufacturers that use less cotton feel a lot of pressure.

"Guang Ying Da" is an old brand in Shanghai's clothing industry. Because the products are mainly made of overcoat, the fabric of Mao and other fabrics is not as large as cotton products, but at the moment, the rise of cost is omnibearing.

"Excipients have increased by 60%, pportation and warehousing costs have risen to varying degrees, and the largest increase is labor, and has risen by 50%."

Manager Zhang introduces.

"Originally a garment worker's monthly salary is 2000 yuan, now mentioned 3000 yuan are very difficult to recruit people."

Zhang said, "making clothes is piecework, such as such a coat, workers can do 50 yuan for one piece. We all joked that opening a factory is" working for the workers ".

Zhang pointed to a woolen coat. The cost of the coat has risen from 120 yuan to 160 yuan over the past year.

"Buckles rose from 1 yuan to 1.6 yuan, and the lining and other accessories increased almost the same. Labor increased from 40 yuan to 50 yuan or even 60 yuan, but the fabric did not rise much, only increased by 5 yuan."

Zhang added that the cost of an overcoat would be nearly 50 yuan higher than the previous one, if the pportation and warehousing prices were raised.

"If we go on like this and do industrial production, we should concentrate on sales and give up production."
