Lack of money is a common problem encountered by small and medium-sized shoe and clothing enterprises nowadays.

But "

scarcity of money

"It is only a representation that shoes and clothing enterprises can not grasp the expected certainty and difficult to adapt to the tight macro-control. With the rising price of raw materials and the rising labor costs, the current difficulties faced by small and medium-sized shoe and clothing enterprises are" how to ensure supply "rather than" finding demand ".

The head of a large shoe making enterprise in Wenzhou told reporters: "since last year, central and Western officials have come to me for a long time, so long as they invest a certain amount of money there, the land there is white."

Now that business is so difficult, I'm also in a heartbeat.

Enterprises face

Management

At the same time, Wenzhou's economy is also facing "regional war".

"Many enterprises in Wenzhou are reluctant to stay in Wenzhou now.

This situation is not only in Wenzhou, but also in Zhejiang province. "

A person from the economic operation Department of Wenzhou economic and Trade Commission said.

When shoes and clothing enterprises are confronted with difficulties, the government's policy guidance has great influence on the future planning of enterprises.

At present, many enterprises in Wenzhou have shifted their production base to the central and western regions. The efforts of these governments to attract foreign investment are also great. Preferential policies such as free land use and tax relief are not available to coastal areas such as Wenzhou.

At present, the business of small and medium-sized shoe and clothing enterprises is not only because of the tightening of money, but because of the traditional labor intensive.

enterprise

Opportunities for development are becoming narrower and narrower.

At the end of May 2011, the Zhejiang Federation of industry and Commerce launched a survey report on the development of small industrial enterprises in Zhejiang.

The research report, which took 2 months, concluded that if the economic policy continues to tighten, the small industrial enterprises supporting the half of the private economy will fall into another round of development difficulties since the 2008 international financial crisis.

In this regard, some people who hold positive views believe that this will force Zhejiang small and medium-sized shoes and clothing enterprises to intensify pformation and upgrading efforts.

In the case of rising prices of raw materials, rising labor costs, raising financing costs and RMB appreciation, enterprises can only increase production efficiency and value-added products through pformation and upgrading, so as to maintain and improve market share on the premise of ensuring profits.

"Transformation and upgrading are easier said than done."

A Wenzhou entrepreneur is so exclaimed.

Transformation can not be achieved overnight. The characteristics of Wenzhou industry are "low, small, scattered and weak". The products are low-end, small in scale, scattered in distribution, and weak in risk resistance.

It is hard to avoid the fact that Wenzhou, which relies on foreign trade and small commodity economy, has no clear direction in terms of industrial pformation.

"Life is more important than upgrading. It seems to be wishful thinking for small and medium-sized shoe and clothing enterprises to talk about pformation."

Zhou Guanxin, director of the Zhejiang Provincial Federation of industry and commerce, pointed out impolitely.

The reason is that small and medium-sized enterprises in Wenzhou are mostly family workshops. Even after they grow, they are mostly family businesses. The degree of organization is low, and the enthusiasm for mergers and acquisitions is not high. These small and medium-sized enterprises are concentrated on low value-added industries, holding the attitude of "no turning and no turning" towards pformation and upgrading.

In recent years, entrepreneurs in Zhejiang, especially in Wenzhou, have a blundering trend.

Some entrepreneurs, after making money, take the money to fight in the virtual economic field, such as real estate and stock market, which are "quick money". The focus of the enterprise is no longer in the real economic field, which directly leads enterprises to have no intention nor to make pformation and upgrading.

"If entrepreneurs fail to deal with this impetuous mentality correctly, how can we talk about pformation and upgrading?"

The process of pformation and upgrading of enterprises needs a process. This process is very painful. It requires the firm firm will and clear and effective pformation and upgrading of enterprises, and the support of government departments and the improvement of external economic environment.

In the interview, deputy director of the Financial Research Institute of the State Council Development Research Center, in an interview, said that the current policy direction should be to actively promote the pformation of SMEs.

He suggested that in macroeconomic policy, we should consider increasing interest rates to curb inflation expectations while appropriately reducing the reserve ratio to improve the credit environment of the real economy, especially small and medium-sized enterprises. By reducing the tax revenue of SMEs, we can reduce the pressure faced by SMEs in pformation, and at the same time, focus on promoting technological upgrading of SMEs. We should encourage mergers and acquisitions among SMEs by means of finance, taxation and other means to promote the benign expansion of SMEs through mergers and acquisitions.

To sum up, promoting the pformation and upgrading of medium and small shoes and garment enterprises is a comprehensive systematic project, which requires mutual assistance and efforts from all sides.

From this perspective, in addition to credit loosening, small and medium-sized shoe and clothing enterprises need more solutions to help them enhance their core competitiveness and speed up the pformation and upgrading of their products.
