Qingdao'S Imports Of Cotton Are Nowhere To Be Stored.

In April this year, reporters at the first cotton import port in Qingdao, Huangdao port, saw that a large number of cotton was backlog in the port, and many cotton traders and traders rushed to find cotton in place. At that time, cotton prices had dropped from high to 22 thousand and 100 yuan per ton.

After two months, the current cotton price is 19 thousand yuan per ton. So what's the latest change in cotton backlog in Huangdao port of Qingdao?

All the storehouses are full.

When the reporter came to Qingdao Huangdao Port Free Trade Zone, he was catching up with a logistics bonded warehouse.

The staff here told reporters that there are ten cars waiting for entering the warehouse today, and only two cars are out of the warehouse.

Qingdao Jinyu Logistics Co., Ltd. bonded warehouse staff: today, ten cars were inspected, ten cars came out, second cars came out, and two cars were also.

Reporter: is this all the time?

Staff: Yes.

In the warehouse of the bonded area, the reporter saw a stack of

It's near the roof, and such a warehouse is quite loose.

Here, the reporter found a cotton imported in July 2011. The logistics company said that the backlog of one year at the Huangdao port was already commonplace. In the past, traders had tens of thousands of tons of goods in hand, even if they had pressed tens of thousands or even one hundred thousand tons of cargo.

Reporter: how much is the maximum volume of traders?

Liu Ming, director of cotton business in Qingdao Jinyu Logistics Co., Ltd.: some 50 thousand tons, 100 thousand tons.

In the office of Wang Quanqiang, the general manager of this logistics company, we met a client who came to Wang to place piled up cotton on the way to shore.

Zhang Jie, general manager of Shandong Yanggu Shunda Textile Import and Export Co., Ltd.: at the end of June, my warehouse will go to 2000 tons of cotton and warehouse. Do you think of a way?

Wang Quanqiang, general manager of Qingdao Jinyu Logistics Co., Ltd.: you certainly have no problem. Although the warehouse is already very tight, it has reached 110 thousand square meters.

In the Huangdao customs bonded warehouse monitoring room, the reporter saw that almost every cotton warehouse is full of cotton, and there are only 3 bonded warehouses which normally store cotton. Now it has increased to 7. Basically, the warehouse of cotton can be stacked up.

Li Jianfeng, head of Huangdao bonded warehouse supervision group, Qingdao: from January 2012 to May, the growth of imported cotton was very large, an increase of about 30% over the same period last year.

According to customs statistics of Qingdao, the import of cotton at Shandong port in the first 4 months of this year was 790 thousand tons, an increase of 81.8% over the same period last year. According to the latest data released by the national development and Reform Commission, China imported 502 thousand tons of cotton in May, an increase of 246.2% over the same period last year. In 1~5 months this year, China imported 2 million 580 thousand tons of cotton, an increase of 113.8% over the same period last year.

The loss of 3000 yuan per ton of cotton is up to 100 million yuan.

When reporters interviewed at the port of Huangdao, Qingdao in April, less than 300 thousand tons of cotton were being pressed into port, but now they have more than doubled. Because of this, the import price of cotton has started to decline. According to the current market situation, a ton of cotton traders will lose at least 3000 yuan. If they press one hundred thousand tons, they will lose hundreds of millions of yuan.

Next, we will take a look at the reporter's investigation.

Zhang Jie, who is worried about the next batch of cotton that can not find any place to store in Hong Kong, started the cotton trade in 07 years. He felt particularly pessimistic this year. Although he had compressed the import volume last year, he was still stuck in the cotton price that had fallen.

Zhang Jie, general manager of Shandong Yanggu Shunda Textile Import and Export Co., Ltd.: the list came down in February and March. (the market is already moving down, why do we have to make a list?) it can not be predicted.

It is considered that the cotton market has fallen to the cost price.

Zhang Jie told reporters that the market price of imported cotton was 120 to 130 cents per pound, but now it fell to 90 cents per pound, or more than 25%.

He now has more than 4000 tons of cargo on the sea except for the 3000 tons of cargo stored in the warehouse. He is watching these goods and losing money every day.

Zhang Jie, general manager of Shandong Yanggu Shunda Textile Import and Export Co., Ltd.: 3000 tons, or 7 million loss.

There are fewer quota losses, and those who sell to processing trade suffer a little more.

Anyway, it was a loss.

3000 tons to pay 7 million, which is not yet 4000 tons floating on the sea, if the calculation of warehousing costs and bank interest, more losses.

Wang Quanqiang, general manager of Qingdao Jinyu Logistics Co., Ltd.: a ton (deficit) between 3000 yuan and 5000 yuan.

One hundred thousand tons of cotton, two or three billion, what does it mean for enterprises?

(now?) I think the bank loan is coming soon, so it's easy to get down.

If there is more cotton losing money, there will also be risk aversion.

At the beginning of last year, Wang Quanqiang's company greatly reduced the amount of imported cotton from 100 thousand tons to 40 thousand tons a year, which increased the storage area.

Wang Quanqiang, general manager of Qingdao Jinyu Logistics Co., Ltd.: bring relative income and income of more than 10 million.

Cotton enterprises go bankrupt and go abroad to sell cotton products for sale.

When interviewed by reporters, cotton traders said that the economic crisis of 08 years was like a storm, and this economic downturn was more like "warm boiled frog". Not only did cotton merchants fail to see the rebound of cotton prices, but also cotton enterprises were hopeless.

Reporters in Binzhou, Shandong, known as "the first cotton in the country", saw many cotton mills struggling, and some even closed down.

Cotton prices are falling, and raw materials in cotton mills are cheaper. Why is it hard to manage? Look at the reporter's investigation.

Known as "

The city of Binzhou is more than 400 kilometers away from Qingdao port, but the cotton sales of the port are directly controlled by the amount of cotton used here, and the export volume of cotton yarn has accounted for 1/4 of the whole country.

Reporters here see, many textile factory brands are still, enterprises are already empty.

The reporter saw that almost all the doors were locked in the huge yard of the cotton mill, and the locks had been rusted.

The refrigerator outside the wall has also been rusted.

In the workshop, the spinning machine remained intact, and the cotton padding on it was covered with dust.

Local people told reporters that the textile mill has been shut down for more than a year, and plant equipment is waiting to be processed.

And not far away, the reporter saw that another textile mill, although the brand is still there, has changed its name to its owner.

According to the survey, there are about ten cotton mills on this street in Binzhou, and three or four of them are closed down.

Local people told reporters that in the past, enterprises could not find workers, and now workers could not find them.

In the survey, the reporters saw that some enterprises, even if they could afford them, were trying to find a way out.

This enterprise is to bite the tooth flower about 20000000 change the equipment to adjust the direction, the former product fifty percent is the export, now all turns to the domestic sale.

At the same time, the imported cotton should be bought and used.

Zhao Ruheng, chairman of Shandong Huimin Lu Jie textile company, now has more than 500 tons in curi, 30 tons per day, ten days and a half months.

As domestic cotton prices are still high, last year they began to grow 30 thousand mu of cotton in Sultan by making use of the advantage of cotton seeds, and were ready to expand to four hundred thousand mu in the future.

Shandong Hui

Zhao Ruheng, chairman of the limited liability company: can harvest 2000 tons of cotton, a ton of fees, at least earn 3000 yuan.
