Cotton Price Drops &Nbsp; How Expensive Is Clothing?

Cotton prices began to fall, but Dahongmen and Muxiyuan

Recently, China Cotton Association released data from March to early September this year.

Reporters found on the wholesale markets of Dahongmen and Muxiyuan that some cotton clothes were already showing up at the end of September. The reporter asked many businessmen that the cotton clothes this year did not depreciate due to the fall in cotton prices.

"Cotton is down, artificial pportation is going up and prices are falling."

Many businesses say that the price of raw materials such as cotton has been slightly reduced, but it has little impact on the price of finished garments.

Reporters learned from the wholesale clothing market that most of the products here come from Jiangsu, Zhejiang or Guangdong.

The reporter sent a number of garment factories in Jiangsu and Guangzhou to understand the cost of the production line. Many garment manufacturers have said that the price has gone up this year.

Ms. Wang, a marketing staff member of a garment factory in Guangzhou, told reporters last year.

Press accounts

Labor costs increase cotton prices difficult to price clothing

Guangzhou garment factory Ms. Wang said that the labor cost of clothing accounted for more than half of the total price of clothing, raw material costs accounted for 40%, and the rest was storage or pportation costs.

According to Ms. Wang, the reporter calculated the cost of an original 80 Yuan pure cotton single coat, but the price rose to 90.4 yuan.

After calculation, it is found that although the price of cotton has declined, it is still "no match for" the increase of labor cost, so the newly listed cotton clothing has no obvious price reduction performance.
