At present, many families

August years ago, making clothes

China's cotton net domestic price monitoring system data show that the price of domestic 328 grade cotton dropped from around 29 thousand yuan per ton in February 7th this year to about 19 thousand yuan in August 7th, diving nearly 10 thousand yuan per ton.

The high inventory of domestic garment enterprises leads to a reduction in the number of new orders, thus reducing the demand for cotton, which is one of the reasons why cotton prices have plunged sharply.

An official with an annual income of about 100 million yuan in Pinghu told the first Financial Daily reporter that the number of clothing orders received by the company decreased by 10% in the second half of this year, and the profit margin of production dropped from 15% in previous years to about 5% this year.

Another person in charge of the business also said that the number of clothing orders has decreased.

Last year, Pinghu's clothing enterprises had a good profit.

Li people said that at that time there were so many export and domestic sales lists that Pinghu's clothing companies couldn't get through the list. Li could only look for orders from Anhui's clothing factories, and there were still some orders that could only be rotten in the drawer of the desk because there was no factory processing.

Because of the strong demand, the price of domestic grade 328 cotton went up to 31 thousand yuan per ton in November 2010.

For a while.

At present, some garment enterprises are bogged down in stock.

One industry insider told reporters that the stock of a sportswear company in Fujian could be sold for a full year.

In 2010, Li Ning Co's inventory value was 806 million yuan, an increase of 27.5% over 2009; in 2010, Li Ning Co receivables amounted to 1 billion 610 million yuan, an increase of 50.5% compared with 2009.

Affected by this, Li Ning Co in June this year, in the fourth quarter of 2011, the new product orders, clothing and footwear products ordering volume decreased, is expected to make Li Ning Co annual sales revenue decreased by about 5%.

In 2011, a quarterly report showed that the amount of apparel in the United States was 3 billion 160 million yuan, an increase of about 600 million yuan compared to the value of 2 billion 550 million yuan at the beginning of this year. For the enterprises of such a scale, according to a reasonable 1 billion 500 million yuan inventory scale, about 1 billion 500 million yuan or more of the inventory was produced.

Li people said that in Hangzhou, some brands of clothing stalls, cotton padded jacket, down garments, each stall stock in the number of 20 thousand ~3, the stock amount reached 6 million ~700 million, under normal circumstances, the proportion of inventory in general 20%~30% is normal, but this year's inventory ratio is close to 50%, due to the need to digest a large number of inventory, the number of orders for new products decreased significantly, the clothing enterprises around the new quarter of the number of orders reduced by 30%, so the demand for cotton will also be greatly reduced, cotton prices are not surprising.

The head of a Pinghu business is beginning to worry about the sharp fall in cotton prices.

He said that cotton prices fell sharply, which could theoretically reduce the production costs of enterprises. This is a good thing. Cotton prices fell by 10 thousand yuan, or 1 tons, to 40%. But the price of labor has not dropped, and the total cost of clothing production has not been reduced by 40% as much as inflation has affected. However, overseas customers believe that cotton prices have dropped so much that clothing prices have dropped in proportion.
