Canton Fair Garment Export Enterprises Worry About Orders

The 109 session of May 1st

"From the first day of the three period, there were fewer visitors to Europe and America at the booth, and at 3 p.m., there was no record yet."

Cai Xiaohang, director of the Canton Fair exhibition booth in Fujian Futian Clothing Group Co., does not seem satisfied with the scene.

It is understood that the company's main business in Germany, Italy and the United States.

Cai said that the summit of the Guangzhou Trade Fair is usually second days or third days.

European and American businessmen estimated to be less than one or two.

Pinghu concept import and Export Trading Co., Ltd. foreign trade department sales staff Wan Qinghua pointed out that the current Canton Fair purchasers are not too much to keep up with the current stage, but there are not many European and American merchants, the first day is estimated to be less than one or two.

"But we already have expectations."

Wan Qinghua said that as early as the end of the first phase of the Canton Fair, exhibitors went back to introduce, and European and American purchasers were not very good. They had been prevented in advance, so they wanted to know some new customers.

From the scene, India and Brazil, including Australia, still have quite a few customers.

From the official statistics of the Canton Fair, the European Union purchasers dropped 10% and the number of American merchants dropped by 3.7%.

To avoid the second phase of Canton Fair official did not publish the relevant data, but according to the reflection of export enterprises, Europe and the United States businessmen did not change the situation.

Jiangsu SOHO Clothing Co., Ltd., responsible person said that from the first day of the Canton Fair third session of the purchasers' situation, it is estimated that the three phase of European and American businessmen will continue to reduce the trend.

The responsible person pointed out that during the three phase of the Canton Fair, an important reason for the reduction of European and American purchasers in the clothing booth was that the European and American merchants began to pfer orders to Bangladesh, Vietnam, Romania and Morocco under the condition that the consumption had not yet fully recovered.

This can also be seen from the increase in export volume of fabrics in the mainland over garment exports.

At present, the price advantage of clothing export in the mainland is no longer under the resonance of the rising cost of raw materials, rising wages and appreciation of the renminbi.

Increase in cost to export European apparel in the first quarter

In fact, in the first quarter of this year, some European apparel market research has found that nearly 90% of these garments are made in China, but only 70% of them are made in China.

Cao Xiaojian, deputy general manager of Jiangsu Shun Tian Limited by Share Ltd, pointed out that this kind of pfer had begun at the end of 2009.

From the factory orders can be seen, at this time, most of the factory orders were placed in October, and this year most factories are only around July, indicating that factory orders have been decreasing since last year.

He also pointed out that in the first quarter of this year, clothing exports from the mainland increased by 18.4%.

However, driven by multiple factors, price increases have become the driving force of export growth, and the volume of exports has actually declined.

The situation in the second half of this year is not objective. It is estimated that the limited growth rate will remain low throughout the year.

"If we exclude the factors of raising prices, it is likely that negative growth will be calculated from the quantity alone."
