Reporter 17, from "2012"

and

"It was learned that in the first half of 2012, only shirts maintained positive growth in Guangdong's major clothing category production, while export orders were severely shrinking, and the garment industry entered the" cold winter "period.

Li En, vice president of Guangdong apparel and apparel industry association, said that in 2012 1-6, clothing enterprises in Guangdong above Designated Size had finished 2 billion 552 million garment production, accounting for 20.47% of the total volume of the country, representing a decrease of 3.16% over the same period last year.

Among them, 1 billion 327 million knitted garments and 1 billion 226 million woven garments showed negative growth, which decreased by 4.77% and 1.36% respectively compared with the same period in 2011.

Shirts in Guangdong's main clothing category are growing steadily.

When analyzing the reasons for the negative growth of Guangdong's clothing, Li En pointed out that Guangdong

Foreign trade oriented processing enterprises, mainly exported to Europe, America and Japan.

In the first half of 2012, due to external factors, the market in Europe and the United States was in a slump, and the number of orders was shrinking.

At the same time, the characteristics of orders gradually change to the trend of "small", "scattered" and "short".

According to the data released by the National Bureau of statistics, in 2012 1-6, Guangdong exported garments and accessories 14 billion 672 million US dollars, down 0.31% from the same period last year, which is lower than the 2.57% increase in the whole country.

In the five major clothing provinces of China, the total export volume in Zhejiang and Guangdong only increased negatively.

A number of entrepreneurs interviewed by reporters said that Guangdong's clothing industry entered a complex stage of development due to the unstable international economic situation, the low external demand market, the slow growth of domestic economic growth and the rise in unit price, which led to the fact that the actual consumption growth was weak.

According to the survey data provided by Guangdong clothing and Apparel Association, only about 20% of the enterprises involved in the survey show confidence in the trend of the apparel industry in the second half of the year.

Recruitment difficulties, raw material costs continue to rise, the number of orders is insufficient, the accelerated appreciation of the renminbi has become the most worrying problem for Guangdong clothing enterprises.
