Price Fluctuation Increased &Nbsp; The Development Of Leather Industry Is Not Optimistic.

"Now, global Leather Industry The hot topics are all around. Raw material The price of their Price It has reached the highest level in recent years, "Li Yuying, project manager of Asia Pacific Leather Exhibition Co. Ltd. in 2011 China International. Leather Exhibition "There is no doubt that this topic will be the main focus of the exhibition," the press conference said.

Relevant data show that leather prices rose by about 20% this year. "High priced leather" debut, some industry insiders predict that this year's leather market is not very optimistic.

From Haining, China's leather capital. survey data The quality of sheepskin has risen from 24 yuan a year to 29 to 30 yuan per foot, and the price of fur has risen from 28 yuan to 52 yuan a year, almost doubled, and the price of leather has increased by 50%.

Leather prices rise, some leather clothing enterprises have to sacrifice profits to protect customers. However, after the completion of the order of old customers with quality and quantity, no new orders will be received. Zhang Jianxin, general manager of Haining Fu Sheng fur and leather Co., Ltd., frankly stated in his QQ space, "the order is stopped! It's not a good business, but the price has gone up too fast! This year's market is crazy! The market's raw leather is priced every day, and the finished products simply can't fix the price!"

At present, one of the reasons for the rising price of leather in China is the tight supply of raw leather. More than half of China's cattle, sheep and pigs are from the western region. The supply of raw * leather in the West has a decisive impact on China's leather industry. Zhang Jianxin analyzed, "like the animal husbandry in the Inner Mongolia area, in order to protect the grassland resources and prevent the desertification of grassland, the state strictly controls the amount of livestock raised. In the past, a sheep was raised in every 10 mu, and now it was raised by 20 mu. As prices rise, there are more and more sellers and sheep.

On the other hand, the price of imported leather is also rising. Gong Huihong, Deputy Secretary General of Haining Leather Association, for example, said, "in April 2009, the price of importing a cowhide from Argentina was $18, and now it has risen to $more than 80."

In addition, the rise in oil prices has also led to a rise in prices of chemical raw materials. Since June 1st, lanxon, a special chemicals group, has increased the price of its leather chemicals worldwide by up to 20%.

The transportation cost and price rise, labor cost increase, environmental protection cost increase and power generation cost rise caused by electricity shortage are all pushing factors for the cost of leather production.

"At present, the hot topics of the global leather industry are all around the price of raw materials, and their prices have reached the highest level in recent years," said Li Yuying, project manager of the Asia Pacific Leather Exhibition Co., Ltd. at the news conference of China International Leather Fair 2011. "There is no doubt that this topic will become the main focus of the exhibition."

Statistics show that from 1 to April, the gross output value of leather industry reached 3 billion 498 million yuan, an increase of 15% over the same period last year. However, the industry believes that the high cost of "high priced leather" will eventually be passed on to consumers. But whether consumers are willing to pay for raising prices will also bring a lot of uncertainty to the sales market.
