The price of winter clothing has jumped two or three this year.

Among them, the price of the down garment is not large, and the price of cotton clothing is obviously higher than that of most of the 10%.

The reporter then interviewed the clothing manufacturers of Ji'nan Yu Chen professional clothing, Ji'nan clothing music Co., Ltd. and Ji'nan Hao Ran clothing company, and several company officials also said that the price of winter clothing rose by about 30% this year.

The rise in the price of winter clothing has made many people feel a bit too much to eat. Zhang Xiaoyuan, who bought two pieces of clothing these days, spent more than 1000 yuan. "According to this price, one month's salary is not enough to buy several clothes."

Seed cotton prices dropped to less than 4 yuan a catty.

Unlike the price of winter clothing this year, cotton prices have fallen sharply this year.

According to the analysis of China cotton information network, with the new cotton market going to the peak stage recently, the price of seed cotton has gone down to a certain extent. Last year, the high price quotas were gone forever. Cotton farmers in some areas reflected the price of seed cotton has dropped to below 4 yuan / Jin. Reporters interviewed found that at present, Shandong Dezhou cotton seed picking has basically ended, the 4 seed cotton price sold to 3 yuan per catty about 8 cents, and last year the highest time, sold to 7 yuan per catty.

"This year's cotton market is very low compared with last year." Guo Shipeng, a cotton researcher at Lu Xian Futures Co., Ltd., said that cotton prices began to rise all the way from last summer, reaching a record 33000 yuan / ton by mid November 2010. Since then, the state has introduced a regulatory policy and entered the 2011. Cotton prices returned to their senses after a brief return to rationality. Especially after the Spring Festival, cotton prices rose all the way and returned to the price of 30000 yuan / ton in March. Since then, cotton prices have gone up sharply and fluctuated rapidly, "from 30733 yuan / ton to 19329 yuan / ton in August, and cotton prices were stabilized at the later stage with the introduction of the detailed rules for the national temporary purchase and storage."

Why is cotton prices falling so badly this year? Guo Shipeng said that global cotton production has reached a historical high level, and terminal consumption has been sluggish, while domestic labor costs are facing Lewis turning point, making orders gradually transferred to Southeast Asian countries, and the domestic textile industry is in trouble, resulting in a downturn in the cotton market. "At present, cotton prices can be maintained at up to 19000 yuan a tonne, which can be said to be all the functions of purchasing and storing, which has fully blocked the continued decline in cotton prices, protected cotton farmers and stabilized the textile industry, giving the whole industrial chain a stable opportunity to inventory and protecting the whole industry."

Labor costs and other factors to increase clothing prices

Cotton prices have been falling and the price of winter clothes has been rising. On the 15 day, the reporters interviewed several garment manufacturers, and they all said that although the price of cotton fell, but because of the increase in labor costs and raw material prices, coupled with the cost of the intermediate circulation of clothing production, the price of clothing had not risen.

Mr. Liu said that the price of cotton has dropped this year, but the price of clothing has not declined because of the increase in labor costs. Mr. Liu said that the price of cotton clothing has been decreasing this year.

Zhang Yu, manager of Ji'nan Yu Chen professional clothing, also said that the workers in the factory were paid by the piece. Last year, a worker made a dress of 15 yuan, and now it has risen to 20 yuan. The monthly salary has risen from about 1000 yuan to 1300 yuan. Zhang said that clothing fabrics also rose, rising by 15% to 20%.

In addition to the rising cost of raw materials such as labor costs and clothing and materials, the increase in the cost of circulation has also become a cause of the rise in clothing prices. Ji'nan Hao Ran clothing company Chen said, the company mainly customized tooling, from the original cotton and other raw materials through the textile mill processing for cloth, and then through the garment factory processing, after the factory through a number of intermediate circulation link, stationed in shopping malls, and finally arrived in the hands of consumers. "Every link in this process costs a certain amount of money, so that the price of clothes purchased by consumers is increased."

In the interview, Chen also said that clothing companies, fabrics and materials were all imported from textile mills. This year, because of the decline in cotton prices, many small textile mills could not survive and stop production. Large textile factories formed monopoly on the industry, leading to higher fabric prices, which also contributed to the rise and fall of clothing prices. The head of several garment companies also said that the cotton price will drop from the fall to the textile enterprises, and it will take some time. Some textile enterprises are buying high priced cotton last year or the first half of this year, which also makes the price of winter clothes hard to fall.
