Fujian Plastic Shoes Export Price Rise And Fall

The reporter learned from the Fuzhou customs that in the first half of this year, Fujian exported 930 million pairs of plastic shoes, down 0.5% compared to the same period last year, and the value was 2 billion 440 million US dollars, up 5.9% over the same period last year.

The main feature is a slight increase in general trade exports, a decline in processing trade exports, a decline in exports to the United States and a slight increase in exports to the EU.

Customs officials pointed out that under the influence of labor and raw material cost increase, RMB appreciation, export tax rebate and processing trade policy adjustment, China's footwear enterprises increased the pressure. Under the circumstances of the US subprime crisis, the EU trade restrictions and technical barriers increasing, and the export environment deteriorating further, chambers of Commerce and industry associations must shoulder heavy responsibilities in coordinating the external behaviors of enterprises and strengthening industry self-discipline. The import and export monitoring and early warning system and smooth information distribution channels should be established. Footwear manufacturers should change the traditional way of distribution, raise the level of technology and environmental protection of products, and explore suitable brand development paths.
