The Risk Of Export Of Wenzhou Footwear Industry Is Increasing, And Smes Are Encountering Severe Winter.

Compared with previous years, the enthusiasm of Wenzhou shoe manufacturers this year has been greatly frustrated.

The analysis report on the economic operation of shoe leather industry in the first quarter of 2008, provided by Wenzhou shoe leather industry association, shows that there are more than 70 enterprises in Wenzhou shoe factories that have failed in recent months.

The report points out that with the increase of various pressures, there will be a further aggravation of the enterprises that switch production or failure.

In fact, the shrinking of the number of enterprises in the shoe industry in Wenzhou is a continuous trend in recent years.

According to reports, in 2003, the association grasped the data that there were about 5000 shoe manufacturers in Wenzhou, and by this year, the figure has turned to 2600.

In 5 years, more than 2000 small and medium-sized enterprises were disappearing.

In recent months, the topic of "shoe industry winter" in Wenzhou has been permeated in the industry.

In the second half of last year, hundreds of shoe enterprises in Guangzhou went bankrupt, and thousands of enterprises were ready to move. Compared with the so-called "China Shoes Capital", the "winter" of Wenzhou footwear industry came late for a whole season.

Analysis of Wenzhou UnionPay letter: 1. The export of shoes industry in Wenzhou is suffering from "cold current". According to the report of Wenzhou shoe leather association, the number of footwear exports in Wenzhou this year was 98 million 440 thousand pairs in 1 and February. The total value was 440 million dollars, an increase of 1.13% over the same period last year.

In January, it exported 280 million US dollars, an increase of 25.32% over the same period last year, and 159 million US dollars in February, a 24.54% decrease compared with the same period last year.

Excluding the February Spring Festival and other reasons, the downward trend is still obvious.

Wenzhou shoes 60% is used for export, so it has the same sensitivity to anti-dumping, export tax rebate reduction, US dollar depreciation, labor cost and raw material price increase.

Due to Wenzhou's local shoe enterprises, most of its trading partners are from the European Union, and most of Guangdong's orders are different from the US. Therefore, Wenzhou shoe industry has "paralyzed" in the second half of last year.

However, since the beginning of this year, the labor cost has suddenly increased due to the implementation of relevant regulations. Meanwhile, many domestic shoe export enterprises have turned their eyes from the us to the EU countries, and the industry competition has intensified. The small profits of Wenzhou shoe enterprises are facing a severe price war, leading to the withdrawal of some small and medium-sized enterprises.

The most direct manifestation of the industry level is the continued decline in profits.

According to the report provided by the association, since this year, due to various comprehensive factors, it is estimated that at least 15% of the profits of enterprises, especially foreign trade enterprises, have been squeezed.

Two, the downtime effect amplifies the risk of industrial chain. After decades of development, the footwear industry in Wenzhou has formed a complete industrial cluster.

A shoe company is equivalent to a motor vehicle factory. It is only responsible for assembly. Its shoes, shoes, shoes, leather shoes, shoes and accessories are matched by dozens of enterprises. Therefore, at present, the more than 70 shoe enterprises that are shutting down and pforming will have an amplification effect in the whole industrial chain.

AOKANG, Lilis and other Wenzhou shoe enterprises insiders reflect that the problems faced by their upstream suppliers are even more grim. As it is difficult for them to shift all the pressure of cost increase to the more powerful enterprises in the downstream, some supporting enterprises choose to go bankrupt or half stop.

Wenzhou shoe leather industry association uses "difficult steps" to describe local small businesses, and many enterprises can only open one of the three production lines.

Three, credit risk hints: the average net profit of Wenzhou shoe enterprises in the past year is about 5%, and according to this calculation, the loss of footwear industry that takes export as the main industry this year will not be an individual phenomenon.

In recent years, Sichuan, Taizhou and other provinces and cities shoe industry base rise, Taizhou shoes price is lower than Wenzhou shoes, domestic overcapacity phenomenon is obvious, even without the impact of international trade, shuffle is inevitable.

At present, large export enterprises are now raising prices to maintain a profit and loss balance.

At present, the export industry of footwear industry in Wenzhou is affected by factors such as backward industrial structure and rising cost.

Small and medium-sized enterprises, which rely heavily on products and low prices to occupy the market, are facing the risk of withdrawing from the market or being taken over by large enterprises because they can not bear the pressure of rising costs.

And in the footwear industry of Wenzhou, enterprises that have established brand and reputation can pass the price pfer to ease the impact of rising costs on profits through the advantage of product structure.

Therefore, banks should be more cautious about the credit granting of Wenzhou footwear industry and export trade credit secured by accounts receivable.

The decline in the international competitiveness of the export products of small and medium-sized shoe making enterprises in Wenzhou may reduce the value of future accounts receivable and affect the quality of bank credit.
