Pearl River Delta Small And Medium Enterprises: The Current Situation Of Closure Is More Severe Than 08 Years.

The giant Adidas decided to shut down its only direct factory in China, and a large number of American enterprises were evacuated from the Pearl River Delta.

Recently, a series of news events have made people dimly smell the plight of the small and medium-sized manufacturing industry in China.

Under the impact of the global financial crisis, small and medium-sized enterprises in Guangdong experienced a collapse in 2008. In 2011, enterprises in the Pearl River Delta also heard the "collapse tide".

At the beginning of the year, the interview with Dongguan, the Pearl River Delta town, found that there were practical difficulties such as "labor shortage", "order shortage", "tax burden" and so on.

In the middle of the year, what is the current situation of small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises in Dongguan? Is the rumor of "collapse tide" true? Does the withdrawal of foreign giants affect Chinese enterprises? For this reason, we went to Dongguan, Guangdong to conduct field interviews.

The manuscript is published in two phases. Please pay attention to it.

Under the busy appearance of Dongguan Industrial Park in summer, it is difficult to conceal the pressures faced by enterprises.

A fact illustrates the current situation of small and medium-sized enterprises in Dongguan.

All along, many business owners in Dongguan are worried about the summer peak blackout.

Public information shows that the peak time of industrial customers in Dongguan this year is "opening six stops one", far less than last year's "open four stop three".

However, behind this "good news" is bad news: the economic downturn has led to some factories directly shutting down, thus reducing the "power restriction".

Most of the factory orders were 1/3 last year, and profits fell by nearly 30%.

"Year-round Recruitment" banner is missing.

From entrepreneurs to experts and scholars, it is generally believed that the current challenges faced by SMEs in Dongguan, such as the Pearl River Delta region and the southeast coastal areas, are difficult employment, falling external demand and poor management.

From a macro perspective, the "world factory" Dongguan economy is in an awkward position: the GDP growth rate in the first quarter was 1.3%, which was the bottom of Guangdong province.

Affected by the international market, Dongguan's economy has once again bottomed out.

Zhai Su Ling, the executive vice president of the Dongguan Association of Investment Enterprises Association and the chairman of Dongguan Guang Sheng Hardware and plastic products Co., Ltd., said that this year's business is not easy. "Orders are too few and there are not many profits."

The strict boss of Hongyu shoes company in Dongguan came to Dongguan to run a factory in 1999. She had worked in Taiwan for more than 10 years, and had worked in Wenzhou and Fuzhou before she went to Dongguan.

Yan boss said that the situation is very bad now, the order is reduced quite a lot, not to mention, the profit glides very serious, in recent months also paid 3.4 million.

Yan boss made a calculation to reporters: in the past year, he has raised wages to workers by 15%, and raw materials prices have risen by more than 20%. Only one data is declining, that is, orders, foreign trade orders fell by almost 30%.

"If this goes in and out, there will be no factories to survive."

Yan boss said.

In the survey, we can see the ubiquitous factory rental advertisements. The industrial and residential streets in Dongguan and the large and small "workshop rental" banner hung on the streets show that the vacancy rate of the factory buildings is high.

During the interview, it was found that in addition to the annual advertisement of the "factory rental" advertisements, the fact that the reporters interviewed in Dongguan later than the end of this year and the Spring Festival this year were different. The banners and advertisements of "frequent Recruitment" hung around the factory buildings, factory buildings, iron railings and even the factory gates were missing.

There are still a few companies in the factory gate with white paper stickers on the recruitment advertisements, advertising also marked "security", "Chef", "women workers" and a few people.

Xie Huaguang, a workshop rental agency in Dongguan, said that from April and May this year, he found it more and more difficult to rent factories. "Although the rent per square meter has been reduced by 2 yuan faster than last year, our company's factory rental rentals decreased by 50% in the two quarter. There are some good traffic locations.

Analysis shows that factories are no longer hiring and factory vacancy rates remain high, indicating that factory operating rate is not high, and the efficiency of enterprises is not high.

"The fundamental reason for the high vacancy rate of factory buildings is due to the downturn in the environment. The efficiency of the enterprises is not good enough, and the underemployment is not enough."

Xie Huaguang said.

Business situation is more severe than 2008.

In the face of the gloomy economic situation, the industry will naturally think of the 2008 global financial crisis.

Enterprises faced four years ago

What is the difference between the situation and the present? What changes have taken place in the economic situation in the past four years?

During the interview, many foreign trade owners expressed their concern. At present, the living environment of enterprises has not improved, even more difficult than the financial crisis in 2008, and the pressure of enterprises is generally high.

The financial crisis in 2008 mainly broke out in the United States, and its impact on the European economy was relatively small.

Under such circumstances, the order of small and medium-sized enterprises in Europe, which is the largest export market in Europe, is relatively stable, and the coverage is not big now, so the difficulty is not as big as it is now.

Since 2011, due to the continued debt crisis in Europe, the sluggish external demand, and a series of factors such as the rising cost of labor and raw materials, Dongguan enterprises have generally run difficulties and their profits have been declining.

At present, the European debt crisis is still going on, and the future of enterprises will not be too good.

According to the latest customs statistics, China exported $163 billion 60 million to the EU in the first half of this year, down 0.8% compared with the same period last year. Exports to Germany declined for 4 consecutive months, exports to France declined for 3 consecutive months, and exports to Italy fell for 10 consecutive months.

Public information shows that even more serious than the decline in European market data is that some European customers have pferred some of their production to Southeast Asia and withdraw to neighboring countries such as their own countries or Romania.

Even Italy, which designs and manufactures high-end clothing brands, has resumed low-end foundry production.

This is a phenomenon that has not been seen in more than ten years.

In addition, there is an analysis that despite the tightening of external demand in 2008, domestic credit is in good condition.

But this year's tight monetary policy has made the capital chain of SMEs face the risk of fragmentation.

This year's economic situation and living environment are more complex and harsh than in 2008. In addition to the drop in orders, we must face the pressure of labor and raw material costs and heavy tax burden. Under multiple factors, there is no profit for enterprises in Dongguan.

In addition, Peng Peng, a researcher at the Guangzhou Academy of Social Sciences, believes that these two economic crises have their own advantages.

In 2008 the financial crisis, the government launched a heavy blow, effective real estate stimulus policies.

In contrast, this year's economic crisis is indeed more seriously affected by internal and external sales. But because of the relatively stable capital chain in the past few years, there has been no large number of bankruptcies this year.

There is no "collapse tide".

In July last year, the two major industries of Guangdong Dongguan, the senior enterprise toy factory, "Su Yi" and the textile factory "Ding Jia" suddenly collapsed, making the local manufacturing industry panic stricken. The collapse of the two enterprises triggered a pessimistic voice, and quickly emerged in the industry of Dongguan manufacturing industry began to appear "collapse tide".

However, after investigation, there was no "collapse tide".

Similarly, with the recent downturn in the local manufacturing industry in Dongguan and the return of employees, the industry once again announced that Dongguan's local enterprises will usher in a "collapse tide".

Recently, Shenzhen billion yuan LED enterprises are willing to go bankrupt, so that small and medium-sized enterprises in the Pearl River Delta region are also one of the shocks.

Allegedly, the reasons for the collapse are complex.

Loan difficulties, financing difficulties, triangle debts, capital chain breaking, and overseas market downturn are all important reasons.

It is reported that after the May 1st, this year, the market suddenly became like a cold, and the consumption was brakes. Now it is becoming more and more difficult to make shoes.

The next four months will be a critical moment for Guangdong shoe enterprises. If we can survive successfully, it means that we will continue to stick to it. Otherwise, there may be a new round of "collapse tide" or "runaway tide".

However, when answering the question of whether the small and medium-sized enterprises represented by Dongguan will be "closed down", many people in the industry do not agree that the failure of SMEs is a case, and the so-called "closure tide" is untenable.

Wu Xin, deputy manager of sales at Dongguan Hongda Electronics Factory, said that there are indeed some small enterprises operating difficulties or even closing down, but large-scale pfer has not come out.

"Besides, there is news in the society that there will be a" closing tide "in Dongguan. In fact, Dongguan will be judged to be too serious.

During the interview, two employees of Dongguan Changan Seya electronics company said, "enterprises that failed last year are rarely heard this year."

Recently, the Dongguan municipal government said after investigation of local enterprises, "small and micro" is not closing down.

However, no "collapse tide" is not a medium and small enterprises can sit back and relax: macroscopically, international and domestic

It is still continuing and there is great possibility of further investigation.

On the micro level, the difficulties of SMEs in China have not improved at all.

Financing difficulties have led to a break in the capital chain.

It is an indisputable fact that the price of raw materials is rising, workers' wages are rising and profits are falling.
