The price is still high after adjustment.

Since September this year, cotton prices have gone up like a crazy buffalo.

China's cotton price index, an important indicator of cotton prices, rose from 18000 yuan per ton in early September to 31000 yuan per ton in November 11th, rising by more than 70% in just two months.

The crazy increase touched the nerves of many departments in the country.

In November 8th, the seven departments of the national development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of agriculture and the Ministry of Railways issued an urgent notice, and put forward 6 measures to maintain the current order of the cotton market.

Tang Liying, owner of Qingfeng cloth business in Humen international fabric market, said.

In the past three months, fabric prices have risen by 50%-60%, and high quality fabrics have yet to be expected.

"Compared with three months ago, orders fell by 7."

Lin Xiaodian, owner of Yuan Tai Bu Xing, also said, "now a lot of cloth shops are used to be three cars a day, and now they are three days a car."

At present, although the downturn is in decline, the situation has not been completely alleviated. On the one hand, it is still at a high level. In addition, many producers are watching cotton prices down and holding a wait-and-see sentiment.

It's very fire that replenishment.

The winter solstice is approaching. At present, many brand clothing's autumn and winter clothes have basically been sold on shelves.

Which styles sell well, enterprises have already got feedback, if sold well, according to the usual practice, enterprises need to produce replenishment quickly and make more money.

"But we sell well this year, but we dare not replenish it."

Humen "little grass baby" clothing brand manager Hu Kui said.

According to the clothing convention, because of the procurement, production, logistics and other processes, the production of brand clothing is out of season, such as spring and summer, the production of autumn winter clothing, autumn and winter production of spring summer clothing.

This year's autumn and winter clothes began to be produced in June, and until August.

At that time, the signs of soaring cotton prices had not yet begun.

"The prices of autumn and winter clothes sold by retail outlets are priced at the time of the cloth, and they were fixed in May and June.

If replenishment is now done, it will be manufactured according to the current fabric price, up six to 70% in May and June.

If we replenish the goods, we must lose money. "

Hu Kui said.

Reporters have learned that this anomaly is quite common this year.

Unless the style is very hot, most stores and agents say that they are short of goods before they can replenish the goods.

Because a large number of fabrics purchased, the cost of production can be reduced to the minimum and the profit margins should be larger.

Hu Kui said, "but if it is a small batch production style, it will not be replenishment."
