The Footwear Industry Grew Steadily And The Overall Operating Speed Slowed Down In The First Quarter.

Recently, in the

At the press conference on leather industry operation held by other organizations, the director of China Light Industry Information Center only released relevant data. This year, China's leather industry will still face the constraints of rising costs, declining export orders, frequent trade frictions, business mode constraints, increased environmental pressure, increased financing costs, and excessive corporate taxes. Overseas market development is not optimistic.

However, with the increase of people's income, the deepening of tax reform and the acceleration of industrial pformation from the Middle East to the west, especially in Hebei, Jiangxi, Anhui, Sichuan and Chongqing, the domestic demand market has realized the rapid development of "from scratch" in the industrial pfer, which will provide broad space for the sustainable development of leather industry and become an important support for ensuring the balanced operation of leather industry.

Research data show that the total output value of China's leather and footwear industry is expected to maintain an increase of about 15% this year. At the same time, coping with international trade frictions will become the normal work of the whole industry. The structure and country of export products will also change, and there will be two improvements: first, the proportion of non leather footwear exports has increased; two, the proportion of exports to emerging market countries has increased significantly.

Although the export volume of some products will decline, the export volume of leather and footwear industry will still maintain about 10% growth this year.

Leather industry is an obvious industry with outgoing characteristics. The impact of the international financial crisis in 2008 has had a considerable impact on its exports.

After the bottoming of 2009 and the reversal of 2010, the leather industry once again entered a fast development channel in 2011.

It is reported that in 2011, China's leather industry achieved 850 million square meters of light leather production and 13 billion pairs of footwear production, and the above scale enterprises produced 54 million 690 thousand leather garments and 3 million 40 thousand natural fur garments.

Raw material resources are among the best in the world. Leather products are ranked first in the world in terms of output and export. China has become a world recognized leather producer.

Since the second half of 2011, the adverse factors such as price fluctuation of raw and auxiliary materials, tightening of monetary policy, appreciation of the RMB exchange rate, and the increase of labor costs have gradually emerged. The growth rate of the leather industry has dropped, and has appeared in the first quarter of this year's economic operation.

In the first quarter of this year, the overall operation speed of China's leather and footwear industry slowed down.

Among them, enterprises above Designated Size have accumulated 220 billion 800 million yuan of gross industrial output value, up 20.5% from the same period last year, down 5.2 percentage points from the end of 2011, and the total industry exports of 14 billion 180 million US dollars, an increase of 1.13% compared to the same period last year, a 20.67 percentage point lower than that of the end of 2011 years.

According to the introduction, in order to cope with the changing economic environment, comprehensively quantify the overall operation of the industry and help enterprises to make effective product and market decisions, in August 2011, the China Leather Industry Association and the China Light Industry Information Center formed strategic partners to jointly carry out the trial operation of "mid light leather prosperity index".

At this conference, the "light leather prosperity index" is also meeting with the public for the first time.

Cai Zhong said that the middle and light leather prosperity index system consists of an overall operational climate index and 5 classified prosperity indices, with output value, sales, exports, assets and profits as the classification index.

The formation of the index is based on the dynamic real-time data of the National Bureau of statistics and the General Administration of customs. Based on China's light industry economic operation and prediction and early warning system, it shows the changing trend of the leather industry in a more comprehensive and comprehensive way.

In 2011, the middle and low leather prosperity index showed a stable overall performance. The 6 indexes were all in the stable operation range. In March this year, the middle and low leather prosperity index was 104.71, showing moderate moderation.

At the press conference, experts from the conference pointed out that environmental protection, brand, technology, standard formulation of discourse power and protection of intellectual property rights are the two principles to enhance the competitiveness of China's leather industry and ensure that our country's leather industry is economically healthy.
