China'S Garment Industry Should Speed Up R & D

< p > China < a target= "_blank" href= "http://www.91se91.com/" > clothing < /a > a target= "_blank" href= "target=" > textile > industry advantage is that the industrial chain is complete, and China is still the country with the largest number of garment exports in the world.

However, this situation is changing quietly.

In recent years, due to the low labor cost in Southeast Asia, China's garment manufacturing industry has shifted to Southeast Asia, and some garment related industries are also considering shifting to the region.

In response to this trend, some analysts have pointed out that China's clothing and textile industry urgently needs to "change the cage and change birds" to achieve industrial pformation and upgrading, improve the added value of products, and shape its own clothing brand.

< p > opening an advertisement version of a Chinese newspaper in Kampuchea will find that the recruitment notices of garment enterprises take up a lot of space.

In the suburbs of Phnom Penh, there are more and more Chinese advertisements for land sales.

According to Shen Chen, chairman of Kampuchea Heng Rui Textile Co., Ltd., almost every day there are new Chinese enterprises coming to Kampuchea. The factories in the industrial park in Phnom Penh have been rented out. Only some areas and factories in remote areas outside the urban area are being leased.

< /p >

< p > the main reason why Chinese clothing and textile enterprises are so fond of Kampuchea is that the minimum monthly wage in Kampuchea is only 80 US dollars. Two, the cost of plant rental in the country is only equivalent to that of China's 1/5, and the three is that the clothing products produced in Kampuchea enjoy preferential treatment for duty-free exports to the EU.

Utana Simpsonvi, executive director of Thailand Garment Manufacturers Association, told an interview with our reporter that China's clothing exports accounted for 35% of the world's clothing exports, ranking first.

The proportion of all Southeast Asian countries is about 10% to 12%.

Jiang Hui, President of the China Textile Import and Export Chamber of Commerce, told the reporter that the orders pferred to Southeast Asia were partly pferred from the European and American clothing brands from China, and the other part was the production of the shares of the leasehold factories in Southeast Asia or the purchase of the local garment enterprises after the Chinese enterprises received orders from the European and American clothing brands.

"P": "we design garments with European and American customers. European and American customers take samples of clothing back to Europe, and buyers decide the order quantity. We procured raw materials from the designated suppliers of European and American customers and processed them into duty-free exports to the European Union."

Kuang Lanfen, deputy manager of sales Planning Department of strength garment processing (Kampuchea) Co., Ltd., told the reporter that this is the typical business mode of Kampuchea garment export enterprises.

< p > < strong > there are many challenges to build factories in Southeast Asia < /strong > /p >

< p > in Southeast Asia, the rising labor costs, insufficient generating capacity, shortage of infrastructure and inadequate laws and land systems will be a problem restricting the development of enterprises.

Shen said that in Malaysia and Singapore, labor costs rose from 30 to 40 dollars a month to 60 dollars a month for 15 years.

However, as foreign companies compete to raise prices to attract workers, the cost of labour in Kampuchea rose from $60 to $120 a month for 2 years.

Since 2011, labor costs have risen at an alarming rate.

< /p >

< p > the survival environment of high-end textile enterprises in Kampuchea is more difficult.

Shen told our reporter that the number of high-end products of European famous brand clothing was limited and the number of batches was much higher, resulting in higher cost of customs clearance from China.

However, the productivity of workers in Kampuchea is relatively low. If the quality of clothing produced by them is not up to the required standard, they will have to re import their fabrics and remake them. "Only enterprises with larger orders will have room for survival".

< /p >

< p > the chairman of the Thailand National Textile Industry Federation, song SSU Su Pan Wei, pointed out to our reporter that Kampuchea lacks the raw materials needed to develop the textile industry.

Due to the lack of fabric in Kampuchea, many Chinese enterprises can only produce fabrics in the country and print and dye them, then bring buttons and yarns to Kampuchea, which are finally sewn by local workers.

According to Kuang Lanfen, in recent years, there have been some agents and traders in Kampuchea, who can provide accessories such as zippers, buttons and yarns for local clothing enterprises.

Kuang Lanfen said: "this can only solve the urgent problem. If we want to import large quantities, we have to import from China."

< p > reporter noted that most of the clothes sold in some large markets in Southeast Asia are low-end "a target=" _blank "href=" http://www.91se91.com/ "brand clothing" /a ", and most of the high-end high-end clothing products with complicated procedures are made in China.

"3 to 4 years later, the Asian garment industry will have a clear market segmentation. China, Thailand and Vietnam will focus on high-end clothing, while Bangladesh, Burma and Kampuchea will mainly produce low-end clothing."

He told the newspaper reporter.

< /p >

< p > Jiang Hui believes that China's garment manufacturing industry should strive towards the fabric function and fashion fashion, and use surplus funds to develop new fabrics with high technology content, such as high fiber, non iron and nano technology.

Lu Qijian, Secretary General of Kampuchea Garment Manufacturers Association, pointed out to our newspaper reporters that the proportion of garment manufacturing industry in the clothing industry will be smaller and smaller in the future.

Li Guangyao, an associate professor at National University of Singapore's School of public policy, National University of Singapore, told reporters that China's garment manufacturing industry should speed up R & D, enhance the level of its own manufacturing industry in Asia, and lay a good foundation for upgrading the high-end industrial chain.
