How To View The Sharp Rise In Textile And Clothing Export Prices

China Textile Industry released by China Textile Industry Association in the first half of 2011

According to the China Textile Industry Association, the export price of textiles and clothing increased by 21.49% from 1 to May.

Among them, textiles from 1 to May

From 1 to May this year, China's textile and clothing export prices increased by 21.49%.

Over 20% of the increase, especially in the Chinese textile and garment export industry, which has won the price competitiveness in the long run.

In particular, under the influence of many factors such as the unstable international market demand and the appreciation of the RMB against the US dollar, it is still a good news that is encouraging.

Textile and chemical fiber raw materials price increases, labor costs and other factors are prompting textiles.

First of all, we should see that through technological innovation and brand cultivation, China's textile and apparel industry has initially had bargaining power in the international market.

Textile trade is the most basic and active part of the world economy, and China's textile industry is also the main promoter of world textile trade.

In the past 20 years, the world economy has increased by 1 percentage points, and the world textile and garment exports in the US dollar have increased by 2 percentage points, while China's textile and clothing exports have increased by 4.86 percentage points.

In recent years, China's textile trade has increased faster than the world's textile trade.

The beautiful export data prove that the export situation of textile and clothing has improved, and the competitiveness and sustainable development ability of our industry have been further enhanced.

This is mainly due to China's textile and garment enterprises in the fierce competition in the domestic and foreign markets, pay more attention to product upgrading, process upgrading, equipment renewal and brand cultivation.

After the survival of the fittest, a large number of modern large-scale textile and garment enterprises have emerged.

These large enterprises, regardless of technical equipment, production technology, production management mode or product design, have reached or reached world-class level, and their competitiveness and bargaining power in the international market have improved significantly.

The analysis report of the customs statistical information network also pointed out that large enterprises have strong compression capacity, and many large export enterprises reflect that this year's orders are in good condition, and they have made preparations for expanding production.

Second, we should see that the emerging market is obviously pulling ahead and needs to be further developed.

According to customs statistics, China's textile and apparel exports have rebounded all over the world, and exports to Latin America and other emerging markets have increased significantly.

From 1 to May, China's exports to all continents increased by two digits.

China's garment exports to the European Union, the United States and Japan continued to grow, increasing by 29.12%, 16.07% and 21.44% respectively.

Exports to these traditional markets amounted to US $33 billion 162 million, accounting for 64.66% of the total garment exports nationwide, up 21.54% over the same period last year.

Exports to emerging markets such as Latin America, Africa, ASEAN and Russia amounted to US $8 billion 143 million, accounting for 15.88% of the total garment exports nationwide, up 36.53% over the same period last year, and the growth rate of exports to emerging markets was much larger than that of traditional markets.

The data show that the potential of the emerging market is huge. We must further develop it and cultivate it into a new growth point.

Again, we should also see that the price increase will also bring a profound impact on China's textile and garment industry.

The rise of prices has exacerbated the polarization of China's textile and clothing exports.

Textile and clothing enter the era of high cost, and the cost of raw materials, labor and logistics is rising further, and the pressure of survival is increasing.

Small and medium-sized enterprises have low profit margins and poor bargaining power. They are in a weak position in the industry, coupled with financing difficulties. It is difficult to cope with all kinds of shocks.

At present, the number of small and medium-sized enterprises in China's textile industry is the main body, mainly producing low-end OEM products.

Under the background of industrial restructuring, industrial resources will accelerate to large enterprises, and industry shuffling is inevitable.

The price increase will also accelerate the outward pfer of China's garment processing industry.

Southeast Asian countries can enjoy GSP treatment for export to Europe and the United States. These countries have given considerable preferential space to foreign enterprises in terms of Taxation and other policies.

With the rise of labor costs in China, some labor-intensive and low value production links such as ready-made garments are gradually being pferred to Southeast Asia and other places. However, these industrial chain links with technical content still remain in China.

Since the beginning of this year, domestic and foreign brand clothing enterprises have increased the strength of overseas foundry production. Some textile fabrics have been exported from China to Southeast Asia.

The industry believes that China's position in the textile and garment export industry chain is gradually changing, and this trend will become more obvious in the future.

Although China's textile and clothing exports have achieved sustained and sound development since the beginning of this year, the factors restricting the development of the industry are also very prominent. Apart from the possibility of a reduction in total export orders, they also face substantial increases in the cost of production factors such as raw materials, labor and energy, as well as the constraints of RMB appreciation and environmental protection.

China's textile and garment enterprises should seize market opportunities and further develop and deepen emerging markets by improving their technological content, quality and original brand value, so as to achieve better long-term development.
