Foshan Textile Upgrading Still Needs To Be Overweight

"Starting in 2011, the peak season is not obvious.

In the first quarter of this year, it was still not prosperous, which was not optimistic compared with last year's 8 and September.

After the end of the year, there are new orders, but mostly small bills and short orders. Today, only three or four days later, they can't hold orders for the next month.

The head of knitting enterprises seems to be more severe in 2012 than in 2011.

In 2011, it was a cold winter for Foshan's textile industry.

Just as frogs started to prepare for hibernation, they accumulated a lot of fat and other energy. Similarly, in the cold winter, enterprises also had greater energy to resist the cold. But one year later, by 2012, the energy consumption was almost the same. Even now it is the same temperature as last year's year, enterprises will also feel "colder" and "more uncomfortable".

The industry forecast that the two quarter may be less optimistic, and there may be companies who can not afford to freeze to be shuffled out.

From 2010 to 2011, the textile industry experienced the overlapping effects of many factors, such as raw material price turbulence and high labor costs. In 2012, the textile industry was facing a more severe cold wave inside and outside the market, and faced with the cost war with Southeast Asian countries.

The European debt crisis continues to spread. As the first target market of China's textile industry, the "cold" of the European economy will also cause "sneeze" in China's textile industry. The industry survey shows that the export is blocked and the domestic sales are cold, and the order of Guangdong eight garment enterprises can only maintain the first quarter.

The textile industry is one of the traditional pillar industries in Foshan. Reporters learned yesterday from the Foshan textile association that under the influence of the economic crisis in Europe and America, the cake of Foshan textile industry market will be reduced by 10% to 15%, and the order in the textile industry will drop to 15% to 20%.

Orders reduce operating rate reduction

The head of a knitting enterprise in Zhangcha said that it seems to be more severe in 2012 than in 2011.

"Starting in 2011, the peak season is not obvious.

In the first quarter of this year, it was still not prosperous, which was not optimistic compared with last year's 8 and September.

After the end of the year, there are new orders, but mostly small bills and short orders. Today, only three or four days later, they can't hold orders for the next month.

As a leading enterprise in Foshan's knitting clothing industry, Tan Mingkuang, chairman of Foshan Everbright Clothing Co., Ltd., also felt the grim situation. Orders this spring have been reduced by more than 30% from last year.

"Our products are mainly aimed at the European and American markets, and now the economy is stagnant, which has a great impact on orders."

Since the outbreak of the financial tsunami, the knitted apparel industry has been shouting cold every year for several years.

For Everbright clothing, the financial tsunami has swept through the United States, and this economic crisis has made the company's "main position" European economies fall apart. In Tam Ming's view, this year's "cold winter" is undoubtedly more fierce than the financial tsunami.

"Customers are very cautious about placing orders. Some customers have only ten thousand pieces left in the past year, and now there are only five thousand or six thousand pieces left."

Faced with the shortage of orders this year, Tan Mingkuang said that this year's business situation is even worse than last year.

According to past years, at the end of the year, it was already "grain full granary". Usually the first quarter of the following year was full, and the second quarter would be finished.

But this year's situation is that orders for the first quarter are not enough, and orders for the second quarter are few.

As a matter of fact, this situation has already shown signs at the end of last year.

"According to past experience, in the normal year to December, orders can be filled until next June, and now we only receive March is not yet full."

When he interviewed Tan Ming in December last year, he was worried. "There is a strong wait-and-see sentiment in the European and American markets. If the order is still not seen after the Christmas holiday, it will prove that the crisis is really serious."

It is understood that at present, the average construction rate of the entire Zhangcha enterprise is 40%, and this period in previous years can reach six or seven.

This year's task is to "keep".

In 2011, it was a cold winter for Foshan's textile industry.

Just as frogs started to prepare for hibernation, they accumulated a lot of fat and other energy. Similarly, in the cold winter, enterprises also had greater energy to resist the cold. But one year later, by 2012, the energy consumption was almost the same. Even now it is the same temperature as last year's year, enterprises will also feel "colder" and "more uncomfortable".

The industry forecast that the two quarter may be less optimistic, and there may be companies who can not afford to freeze to be shuffled out.

Jiang Weideng, general manager of Foshan Pentium Knitting Co. Ltd., admitted that under the influence of the current international economic situation, 2012 will become a "Shou" year for the traditional textile industry.

The reduction of orders and the lack of operating capacity make it difficult to recruit workers in previous years.

A number of enterprises reported that after the first month of fifteen, workers began to flow back, and orders gradually increased. The two had an unprecedented "harmonious development".

"If there are too many orders, it may not be enough.

If we want to hire large workers and raise wages, we may still be able to lower the price of large orders, so we prefer to keep them on the basis of the original ones.

Zhangcha a knitting enterprise responsible person.

Many industries believe that such a cold winter may show signs of warming in the second half of the year. "The state will lower the reserve requirement rate and the financial environment will be relaxed in the second half of the year. All sectors of the industry will be re injected into the industry to revitalize the industry.

But this is only a prediction. It is not clear how the economy will develop.

However, crises also mean opportunities.

According to the industry association, when the cold winter comes, the polarization of industries becomes more and more serious. Some enterprises are still relatively stable in terms of starting rate and orders, and even some enterprise orders can be completed until May. However, some enterprises began to reduce their scale last year, but still failed to find their own positioning and direction this year. Some enterprises in the industry continue to have a certain scale in the textile industry, but they are looking for opportunities to develop other industries, such as the third industry.

Foshan textile upgrading still needs to be overweight

From 2010 to 2011, the textile industry experienced the overlapping effects of many factors, such as raw material price turbulence and high labor costs. In 2012, the textile industry was facing a more severe cold wave inside and outside the market, and faced with the cost war with Southeast Asian countries.

"Foreign trade market is sluggish, orders are not ideal, export is difficult to do."

Wu Haoliang, Secretary General of Foshan textile and garment industry association, admitted that compared with previous years, orders for textile and garment enterprises in different industries have declined in different ranges since the beginning of spring, with an average decline of 15% to 20%.

And there is a "double attack" between the internal and external sales slump.

Just because the economic crisis in Europe and the United States has led to a reduction in market demand, the Foshan textile industry's market cake has been reduced by 10% to 15%.

In addition, European customers continue to lower prices, and the appreciation of the renminbi and the export tax rebate rate reduction is also compressing the profits of enterprises, so that the profit and quality of the order reduction, enterprises have single "dare not pick up", take all these factors into consideration, Foshan textile foreign trade enterprises order reduction may reach three or four.

The orders that these domestic enterprises "dare not take" are likely to flow to low Southeast Asian and South Asian countries such as Vietnam, Malaysia and Bangladesh. This trend is even more evident this year.

Although the region is still in the 5 to 10 year gap with China in terms of industrial chain matching and technology, with the gradual improvement of industrial development in these countries, it will pose a real threat to China's textile and garment industry.

In the international textile market under the downward trend of economic downturn, Vietnam, Malaysia and other countries are catching up with cost advantage. The industry believes that Foshan textile industry upgrading still needs to be overweight.

Wu Haoliang said that the government should set up a public service platform for enterprises and put the preferential policies of the state and even the provinces and municipalities to support small and medium-sized enterprises.

Jiang Wei Deng believes that the traditional textile industry still has its development space. The Foshan textile industry has a complete industrial chain. Foshan textile pformation and upgrading must fight technical warfare, enhance value-added products through technology, and promote the development of textile industry through brand war, channel warfare and e-commerce.
