Inventory 2014 Leather Industry Faces Multiple Crises Of "Rising Costs"

< p > when leather products printed with "MADE IN CHINA" are selling well all over the world, China becomes a big leather country in the world. China's leather industry is facing many severe tests.

< /p >

< p > data show that in 2012 1-6, China's above scale leather, fur and products and footwear industry achieved a total industrial output value of 493 billion 759 million yuan, an increase of 14.58% over the same period last year, and the growth rate dropped 11.68 percentage points over the same period last year. In 1-5 months, the gross profit of leather, fur and products and footwear industry in China's scale was 22 billion 487 million yuan, an increase of 20.35% over the same period last year, and the growth rate dropped by 12.49 percentage points over the same period last year.

< /p >

< p > analysis shows that this is the adverse impact of domestic and international raw material price fluctuations, international a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/list.aspx Classid=101112107105", low demand /a, and rising labor costs.

< /p >

< p > according to WTO's latest report on world trade, China has surpassed Germany to become the world's first export power, and exports account for 10.4% of the world's total exports.

< /p >

< p > but 1-6 months in 2012, China exported 4 million 80 thousand leather garments, 210 million US dollars, down 28.9% and 23.4% respectively compared with the same period last year. In the same period, the export of semi finished leather in China was 4253 tons and 15 million 810 thousand US dollars, down 24.5% and 8.2% respectively compared with the same period.

< /p >

Under the background of economic globalization, the global manufacturing industry also has a global trend. The global economic trend will have an impact on China's leather industry. P

How can China's leather industry with a production value of 400 billion occupy a favorable position in the division of labor in a globalized industry? It is a major test that will affect the future development of the industry.

< /p >

< p > we can see that after decades of development, China's manufacturing industry still has not been rid of the embarrassment of the global giants' production base.

The leather industry is also the case. In the eyes of the Americans, the shoe factory of the a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/list.aspx? Classid=101112107102" > the Pearl River Delta < /a > may be just the "core factory" of a multinational shoe company.

< /p >

The direct consequence of this p situation is that although there are more and more leather products flowing from Chinese factories to the world, it is hard to see even the Chinese brands behind the "made in China" market in overseas markets.

< /p >

What is more serious is that the disadvantaged position in the global industrial division is caused by many problems existing in China's leather industry itself. P

< /p >

< p > first, because of the lack of technology, the leather industry in China, apart from the manufacturing links in the middle, has a great gap with the West in terms of tannery technology, environmental protection technology, design creativity, and the marketing and brand building of the rear end.

For example, on environmental issues, the EU's registration, assessment, authorization and restriction regulation of chemicals (REACH), which was introduced in December 1, 2008, restricts the entry of Chinese related products including leather into the EU market by limiting chemical content.

At the same time, because of environmental problems, some local governments that have made leather industry as a pillar industry have begun to support green emerging industries, even leather industry.

The backwardness of technology and the lack of core technology are the biggest bottlenecks restricting the development of leather industry in China.

< /p >

< p > in addition, structural contradictions are another important problem affecting the healthy development of China's leather industry.

< /p >

< p > in terms of product structure, whether it is luggage or footwear, there are surplus products in the middle and low grade products, less products with high quality and less brand influence. In terms of enterprise structure, tannery production layout is relatively scattered, small scale and large number of enterprises, and a large number of backward productive forces are facing elimination; in regional structure, industries are concentrated in coastal areas such as Guangdong, Fujian and the Yangtze River Delta. The central and western regions, especially in the western region, have fewer enterprises, and regional and market and resource advantages are not fully realized.

< /p >

< p > leather industry is the oldest industry of mankind. The history of leather industry development is the history of human skill progress.

Since the reform and opening up, China's leather industry has been developing vigorously, and the status of China's leather industry is unbreakable.

However, it is still necessary for China's leather industry to work together from the big country of leather industry to the power of leather industry.

< /p >

< p > we have been committed to promoting the healthy, orderly and rapid development of China's leather industry. We have always been thinking about the future of industry in an objective and rational way.

We hope that China's "a href=" http://www.91se91.com/news/list.aspx? Classid=101112107101 "leather industry < /a" can withstand external and internal multiple tests, break through the tight encirclement of traditional manufacturing industry, and move towards a healthy and healthy development track.
