This time the price of cotton is rising, and the US dollar continues to depreciate, the price of clothing products has generally risen by 30%-40%.

It is reported that due to the recent high cotton prices and exchange rate fluctuations, the mainland garment manufacturers continue to raise their quotations. The clothing exported to Central Asian countries in Xinjiang is mostly low value-added products. Even if the price rises by 1 yuan, it will also affect the purchasing of merchants.

" Ma Xinjian, a staff member of Xinjiang Fuli trading company, said.
