Fur Capital Seeks Opportunities From Crisis

In November 13th, when the reporter came to Daying Town in Zaoqiang County, the banners of the seventeenth China International Fur Trade Fair in the main street of the town were not removed.

The international fur trade fair, which was held in October 28th for 5 days, attracted 3000 businessmen from China and around the world, with a paction value of about 1000000000 yuan.

Behind this prosperity, known as "the capital of the world", the reporter still saw many merchants' concerns about the ferocity of the "financial tsunami": the orders from other cities are decreasing and prices are falling.

How to deal with this crisis is not only a problem that tens of thousands of businessmen think and faces, but also a problem that local government departments and trade associations are working hard to deal with.

At this moment, many businessmen have begun to take self-help measures.

Most of the merchants stopped production on the morning of 13, and Mr. Wang and his family were finishing up a batch of fur products, which may be the last batch he processed this year.

A day ago, Mr. Wang closed the processing plant.

"Now, I'm not planning to get a job.

Even if there is a big order, I won't start processing until the money has been called. "

Mr. Wang said, like many businesses in the town, his family is a small business developed by a family workshop, mainly to do all kinds of fur processing. Most of the goods are exported to Korea, Japan and Italy through foreign trade companies, and the profits they get at the very best are processing fees. "The investment is huge, the goods are sent out, and if the money is not returned, the losses will be great."

Mr. Wang has never had a sense of crisis like this year in Mr. Wang's experience of fur processing for more than 20 years.

In fact, he felt vaguely from the second half of last year that this year's situation may be bad. After July, he felt the crisis coming.

Zhang Xiucheng, who was called "big boss" by the local people, managed fur processing and direct export trade, also felt the menacing "financial crisis".

He told reporters that the company's orders are only 30% in the past year.

"90% of the company's products are exported to Korea, and the Korean won depreciate very much. Who will do the loss, the order will be less."

The task now is to dump goods, reduce inventories and minimize losses.

In most of the fur processing enterprises in Daying Town, most factories have shut down and reduced inventories, thereby reducing risks.

Reporters found that many shops on the streets were closed.

The government and businessmen collude for the future. According to the introduction, Daying Town of Zaoqiang county is known as "the hometown of fur" and "the capital of the world".

At present, there are more than ten thousand local processing enterprises and more than ten thousand employees.

Sun Pinghua, Secretary General of Mao Da fur trade association, said that fur market and the market of the Asian star market in Moscow Downing street, more than 80% of fur products came from the camp, and there were more than 100 booths in Russia every year.

Last year, although the product was backlog and unmarketable, but in view of the local consumption habits, the product was sold.

"And this year, businessmen can not sell a few items a day, the sales volume is decreasing and the price is falling. We have no idea at all. How long can this situation last?"

Yuan Wenhu, director of the Economic Commission of the government of the Daying Town, said that the government departments hired experts to train the business people, so that they could understand and understand the crisis and take measures to avoid risks so as to help them get through the crisis smoothly.

The fur trading association of the Dali fur industry has also released various feedback information to members through the Internet and other ways. It also suggests that Russian businessmen should pay attention to Russian related policies while preserving the market.

It should be said that Mr. Wang's "turn around" action is not slow. He has just started a special counter in a big shopping mall in Shijiazhuang, and intends to shift from foreign trade to domestic sales. Zhang Xiucheng's "rejection of goods" means selling at home, "selling at home, keeping capital business, doing well."

The products of the international fur trade center in the town of Daying Town are sold domestically. In the afternoon, the reporters saw that the finished products, semi-finished products, wholesale or retail pactions were quite lively.

"Compared with previous years, sales are less, but the overall situation is still acceptable", which is the general feeling of merchants.

It is a crisis and an opportunity. It is a crisis and an opportunity.

Mu Linbao, standing committee member of the Zaoqiang county Party committee and Secretary of the Party committee of Daying Town, said that when it comes to the current financial crisis, it is full of hope for the future.

Mei Lin Bao said that on the one hand, the financial crisis was spreading continuously, and the merchants who were buying the goods were everywhere.

"Now is the season of killing animals and skinning, and businesses are running to animal breeding bases all over the country to buy raw skins."

The price of raw leather is much cheaper than the highest point, which is very cruel for the farmers, but it is an opportunity for the fur industry.

Mother Lin Bao also suggested that the government departments should consider the compensation mechanism for farmers so as to form a more stable and healthy industrial chain in the industry.

According to the introduction, last year, the "procurement trip" organized by the government of Daying Town to several animal breeding bases was sought after by many merchants. The 13 government of the Daying Town also held various village cadres meetings to count farmers' demand categories, so as to facilitate the "procurement journey" to be started in the late part of this month.

At the same time, in order to seek more stable raw material market supply for fur industry development, Zaoqiang county has also established three friendly breeding and leather production bases, including Liaoning Da'an, Hebei Leting and Shandong Cangshan, as friendly counties and cities.
