Small And Medium-Sized Shoe Enterprises Suffer From Financing Difficulties And Seek Self-Help.

RMB appreciation, frequent natural disasters, slowing world economic growth...

Dongguan has summed up eight major reasons for the predicament faced by enterprises.

However, compared with Dongguan, which is dominated by foreign capital, Foshan is actually different.

Foshan's industrial output value accounts for about 37% of domestic and foreign capital, and domestic capital accounts for the majority. It is the most typical endogenous economic characteristic area in Guangdong province.

In the face of "danger" and "machine", many production experts believe that Foshan's economic structure determines that it will appear calm in the face of this severe test than Dongguan and other foreign capital.

Foshan can also consider taking this opportunity to upgrade its own industries and eliminate backward productive forces.

Chen Yunxian, the mayor of finance, has been emphasizing the second half of the year or becoming flexible. He has always stressed that the mayor, Chen Yunxian, who wants to study more macro policies to gain advantages and avoid disadvantages, has also carried out an analysis on the economic operation conference of Foshan in the first half of the year.

In his view, the growth of SMEs is related to the sustainable development of Foshan's economy, and the optimization and upgrading of industries is also a difficult problem for Foshan.

He said that in the first half of this year, Foshan took measures to encourage enterprises to become United Nations suppliers, actively promote the listing of Foshan enterprises, and adopt the "333" strategy to promote industrial upgrading.

But in the face of the same macro and policy environment, the performance of different enterprises is different.

"The national macro-control is mainly on the capital level, and the indicators of big enterprises are much better than those of small and medium-sized enterprises. In the case of tight money, large enterprises can maintain healthy development, and SMEs will be more difficult."

There are also differences in the development of domestic and foreign enterprises. The increase in costs has a greater impact on the import and export trade quota changes.

"In this regard, I think Foshan has its own advantages, Foshan private enterprises occupy the main body and have considerable domestic market, which will be better in comparison."

For the second half of the year, Chen Yunxian believes that the central government has responded to the current objective economic situation.

"I think it can be predicted that in the second half of this year, the national macroeconomic regulation and control policy will have some flexibility, which will provide policy guarantee for the better development of Foshan's economy."

But at the same time, Chen Yunxian also reminded that Foshan is still deeply troubled by the financing problems of small and medium-sized enterprises.

This year, the central bank has raised the deposit reserve interest rate for the 5 time, which has tightened bank lending funds. By the end of 6, the loan balance of Foshan's financial sector was 299 billion 179 million yuan, up only 6.1% from the beginning of the year, down 5 percentage points from the same period last year.

Because industrial enterprises still face macroeconomic policy pressure, Foshan's general budgetary revenue growth rate is also lower than the heyday and the Pearl River Delta average.

Yesterday, many companies telephoned this newspaper to talk about their feelings. Lang Xianping's lecture also had 10 tickets for readers to ask. "From last year to now, both exports and domestic sales are under tremendous pressure.

Sometimes I really want to give up. "

Yesterday, a person in charge of a cabinet appliance company called to say that he hoped to provide several tickets to the company's leadership and learn from Lang Xianping's lectures how to tide over difficulties.

According to the newspaper's responsible person, 35 readers were given tickets yesterday.

It is understood that most of the small and medium-sized enterprises came to collect tickets yesterday, especially the import and export trade enterprises.

Some business representatives said that since last year, they have encountered many difficulties in export. They hope to have a direct dialogue with Lang Xianping. Another reader says they are ready to enter the energy saving market and hope to listen to experts' opinions.

The newspaper official said that in recent days, readers were surprised to learn from the newspaper after receiving information.

Up to yesterday, there were only 10 tickets available to readers.

Interested citizens please contact the newspaper as soon as possible in accordance with the ticket collection method provided by the newspaper in July 22nd.

Analysis of the Foshan development and Reform Bureau: Four "big mountains" are pressing the Buddhist enterprises, Foshan development and Reform Bureau. After investigation, they think that Foshan's industrial enterprises are facing four main problems at present: the rising cost of production is affected by the recent increase in domestic raw material prices and the increase of labor costs. The pressure on the increase of production costs of Foshan enterprises is relatively large. In the first half of this year, the purchasing price of raw materials, fuels and power increases (no statistics in this city, referring to the province's above 8.5%), and the scissors difference between the increase in factory prices (PPI, 4.5%) of industrial products is over 4%, and the profit growth space is compressed.

Since the difficulty of financing increased last year, the state has raised the reserve ratio and the benchmark interest rate of deposit and loan, and has taken a series of restrictive measures on the "two high" industry loans. The only 15 increase in the reserve ratio has directly frozen the funds of about 40000000000 yuan in Foshan financial institutions, while the large banks compress the scale of credit.

Foshan enterprises are undoubtedly "very hurt" by tightening up control measures.

Export trade has been frustrated this year, the renminbi has accelerated appreciation against the US dollar. Meanwhile, the demand for the world's major economies has declined due to the US subprime mortgage crisis, and the export trade of enterprises has been frustrated. In particular, many products, such as textile, shoemaking, toys, furniture and other industries, have low added value and thin profits.

There is a data here: the Ministry of Commerce and international trade and Economic Cooperation Research Institute estimates that, with the impact of the subprime crisis, the annual cumulative stock of overseas bad debts of Chinese export enterprises may reach about 100 billion yuan, and the hardest hit areas will be concentrated in the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta region.

Most of the export enterprises in Foshan adopt the credit sale method of first shipment and later payment. After the subprime crisis, many American enterprises with trade with Foshan have delinquency accounts. Some small and medium-sized enterprises are likely to be dragged down by cash flow.

Enterprise strategy [toy industry] attack brand is difficult to reduce cost as much as possible in the short term. At present, many toy enterprises fail because of their lack of brand and have no advantage in fierce market competition, but few toy enterprises begin to take the brand line to enhance their competitiveness.

"A brand enterprise is good, but now it is very difficult to make a brand out immediately, it is very difficult to achieve in the short term, and the possibility of profitability is very low."

A big toy factory owner who did not want to be named revealed that they spent years building brands before, but their profits are still very thin.

For some small businesses, it is even more impractical.

Li Jian, the marketing manager of Haifeng toys factory, said that in order to cope with the difficulties, they would reduce costs as much as possible, and on the other hand, they would also consider going abroad to see whether new markets could be developed.

"Employee costs and raw material costs will definitely not be reduced. It is particularly difficult to recruit people, and only cost control is made in the production process.

For example, in the process of making toys, we wasted some cloth or filled cotton and so on. Now it is very strict.

[footwear industry] OEM and its own brand must also set up headquarters economy, aiming at the current shoe industry status. The reporter understands that at present, traditional industries in Foshan have considered relocation.

It is understood that at present, a number of enterprises have gone to Jiangxi, Hunan and other places for inspection. Some enterprises are also going to set up factories, but mainly rely on shoe upper processing, and other high technology links are still produced in Guangdong.

The Asian footwear industry association said that the headquarters, brand, technology research and development departments in Guangdong remain in the mainland, requiring large quantities of land and intensive labor to be placed in the mainland, making it a new choice for many enterprises.

Foshan textile and garment association responsible person said that the footwear industry must start to do headquarters economy.

Chen Lin, general manager of Kass wheat footwear, said that shoe companies had been shut down in the past two years, and that they had to survive or the brand was the most secure.

If it's just OEM, it's hard to have room for survival.

[textile] to cultivate employees' loyalty, the most direct problem faced by textile enterprises is how to support them.

Now the textile industry has only 3% profit, and even many enterprises are less than 1%.. For the current situation, the most direct practice of many enterprises is throttling.

Sun Jing, manager of Macy's underwear export department, said that they are now trying to expand their products and increase their selling points, while reducing their costs.

A product cost control team is set up to reduce office expenses as much as possible, but labor costs are difficult to save.

In this regard, Wu Haoliang, Secretary General of the textile industry association, said that it is difficult to recruit workers. If we can cultivate high loyalty of employees, it is also a good way to save labor costs.

At present, Foshan has formulated a double pfer policy to the textile industry.

Lu Mingkeng, chairman of Xinguang Knitting Co., Ltd. said that in order to reduce costs, he plans to move to Xiqiao to develop, where the supporting facilities are relatively perfect.

"Now we are in the urban area, the factory is also very old, and we have changed our new factory to give our customers more confidence.

In addition, Xiqiao unify the supply of steam and concentrate the waste water to the waste water pool, which also saves us a lot of costs.

[ceramic industry] for the purpose of raising prices, developing new products and finding a low-cost place to survive, removing some well-known pottery enterprises wishing to move the production lines outside, the general small and medium-sized enterprises are mostly passive relocation.

Nanzhuang Road, a small business executives said that the relocation of small and medium enterprises to consider the cost of migration, so brand enterprises still do OEM, and some brands do not have a closed door to find another way to live.

"Only when we go out now, will we have a larger market, which is an unavoidable part of developing ceramics."

Monalisa ceramic director Zhang Qikang said.

With the continuous increase in prices of crude oil and raw materials this year, some ceramic enterprises in Foshan have seen part of the price increase, mainly concentrated in the first-line brand.

Such as new Zhong Yuan, Eagle brand, Monalisa, new pearl and other enterprises, all have 5%-10% price increase.

But at the same time, the price increases are mostly carried out on new products.

"Now we can only carry out a disguised price increase through the development of new products, which will enable customers to accept some, which is also a way to deal with the current decline in profits."

A ceramic owner in Foshan said.

It is reported that many ceramic enterprises in Foshan have put their eyes on the rural market of 800 million people in order to expand more markets.

"If it can be activated, it will be a great success."

Huang Xinhong, Secretary General of China Ceramic Industry Association, said.
