The price of thermal underwear in wholesale markets and shopping malls is generally rising, so will the price of thermal underwear, which is famous for its low price, also rise? The reporter entered the online shopping platform like Taobao and Jingdong mall, and found that the price of thermal underwear also rose.

"Our thermal underwear has always been selling well. Last year, the cheapest set of less than 100 yuan can be obtained, but this year the price of all kinds of thermal underwear is high, so the cheapest set of thermal underwear should be more than 100 yuan, and the set of less than 100 yuan is not."

Shop owner Wang told reporters.

Cost increase is the main reason.

For warm underwear with rising prices, some dealers generally say that the price of raw materials and the rising cost of manpower this year are the main reasons for the rising price of thermal underwear.

"In the cotton clothing industry, the amount of cotton used for thermal underwear is relatively large, and the content of cotton in many products reaches more than 90%, and the price of cotton underwear rises as the price of cotton yarn rises."

Mr. Li, who sells thermal underwear, said that the price of cotton has been rising all the way since last October. In March this year, cotton prices broke through 30000 yuan / ton mark, reaching the highest level in 10 years.

The cotton fabric purchased now increased by 3 yuan to 4 yuan per year compared with the same period last year, and the sales price of underwear products also increased by 10% to 15%.

"Besides the rising price of raw materials affecting the price of thermal underwear, the rising cost of manpower is also an important reason.

Since the Spring Festival this year, the wages of workers have gone up very clearly, and the number of skilled workers in the factory can get up to 1 times the highest wage.

A brand of thermal underwear in Shandong, Beijing dealer said.

Another reason for this year's price increase is inflation.

Everything is going up, underwear manufacturers will naturally raise prices, and then through the middle wholesalers, the price will naturally come up.

Besides, labor costs and freight rates have been rising, and the wages of factory workers are much higher than that of last year.

The clothing wholesale market manages the warm underwear's young lady to say.
