Guangdong'S Foreign Trade Orders Are Fluctuating Vigorously.

Statistics released by customs Guangdong branch released that in the first half of the year, exports of traditional labor-intensive products in Guangdong were significantly fluctuated, including clothing and accessories.

Exports of textiles, yarn, fabrics and products were 14 billion 610 million US dollars, 6 billion 810 million US dollars and 5 billion 510 million US dollars respectively, down 0.7%, 1.8% and 2.4% respectively.

Alibaba's Shenzhen Datong Enterprise Service Co., Ltd. has issued a report on the foreign trade index of small and medium-sized enterprises in the Pearl River Delta region. In the first half of the year, the orders of the foreign trade enterprises in the Pearl River Delta region slowly recovered, but due to the complex and changeable international economic situation, the orders of foreign trade enterprises were fluctuating drastically.

In June alone, the number of enterprises whose orders were less than last month increased by 7%, and the number of enterprises whose orders were greatly reduced increased by 4%.

"Our order is OK, but the fixed production cost in Guangdong is very high, so many orders are hard to make money or even lose money."

Wang Wei, chairman of Dongguan bejia footwear industry, said that when the chamber of Commerce held a meeting, there were still some orders, but because the consumption level in Europe and the United States was not going to go up, the price of products could not go up, and the profit margins were very low.

Li Defeng, chairman of the Guangdong Provincial People's Congress and chairman of Dongguan Xingfeng Woolen Textile Co., Ltd., said that orders for this year were very unsatisfactory, which fell by more than 20% compared with last year.

"This year, many private enterprises' profit levels have fallen a lot over the past years, which is mainly related to sales volume. The main difficulty of enterprises is too much inventory and no profit from sales."

Qiu Yuhua, executive vice president of the Guangzhou municipal private enterprise association and general manager of Huaan Da Industrial Company, Guangzhou, said that the increase of inventory costs, including fixed costs of labor costs, has led to difficulties for enterprises, especially small and micro enterprises. The government has also introduced some administrative fee reduction policies, but efforts are still not enough.

According to Hangzhou customs, the traditional export commodities of Zhejiang textile, clothing and high-tech products were relatively low in the first half of the year, of which export clothing was 12 billion 310 million US dollars, down 1.7% compared to the same period last year.

"This negative growth is probably the first time that the garment industry in Zhejiang is the first time. Therefore, this year's clothing enterprises, whether domestic or foreign trade, are generally relatively high inventories, and the discount of shopping malls is also the performance of the garment industry to provide more than needed."

Hangzhou economic and Trade Commission textile department official said.

It is reflected that the decline of the export value of traditional clothing such as Zhejiang clothing mainly comes from the impact of traditional export markets.

It is more obvious that exports to the EU continued negative growth in the first half of this year, with exports of US $24 billion 810 million, down 6.8% from the same period last year.

Exports to the US, ASEAN and Russia increased by 13.6%, 10.4% and 14.1% respectively, and the growth rate dropped 26.2 percentage points over the same period last year.

This slowing down of growth also makes businesses feel more and more difficult to do business.

"Orders for handicrafts exported to Australia and Europe and the United States have been reduced by at least half of last year."

Zhejiang Yiwu foreign trade international freight forwarding Co., Ltd. Li said that the depreciation of the euro and Australian dollar has also directly reduced the profits of foreign trade. He is now trying to move to emerging markets such as Brazil and Africa.

In Guangdong, relevant experts also suggested that local export enterprises take the initiative to attack and discover new market development points.

Data show that in the first half of this year, Guangdong's exports to emerging markets were 2.2 percentage points higher than that of the whole province.

"Guangdong's export market is mainly the United States, the European Union and Southeast Asia."

Professor Xiao Yaofei, deputy director of the international economic and Trade Research Center of Guangdong University of Foreign Studies, said that the next step is to open up new market economies in Guangdong.
