< p > the industry generally noticed that the cost of labor in mainland China was rising, pushing up the "a" href= "http://www.91se91.com/" target= "_blank" > textile < /a > price.

However, many buyers will not seem to worry too much. It seems that they have adapted to this situation and will be included in the long-term plan.

Yousif Albeer, proprietor, partner and managing director of Dubai Yaser and Mayasa Co is one of them.

< p > when it comes to price increases, Yousif Albeer says that prices are rising instead of soaring.

Their approach is to comply with price changes, so long as the product and design are appropriate, customers will accept it.

< /p >

P seems to feel that rising prices are inevitable.

"/p".

< p > as a supplier, Yang Gu, manager of Coco Textile Company, Harbin, China, said that in mainland China, all people, factories and enterprises are facing the same problem, that is, the price is rising.

< /p >

< p > although prices may rise all the way, buyers and suppliers generally feel that exports from mainland China are much easier in recent years.

Tricia Carey, senior business manager of Lenzing Fibers, a German textile manufacturer, confirmed the trend and said that many American buyers believe that China's textile industry has improved a lot in the past 10 years.

< p > < strong > buyers adjust procurement strategy < /strong > < /p >

"P > China's mainland prices continue to rise, prompting buyers to adjust procurement strategy, and find another source of goods to buy reasonable prices of high-quality fabrics.

Several countries are popular options, including Vietnam and Kampuchea.

< p > Lan Jing is also looking for other procurement locations and evaluating which country will stand out as the next purchasing hotspot.

Carey points out that many buyers are interested in the p Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPP).

At present, the trading group includes Australia, Brunei, Chile, Canada, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, the United States and Vietnam.

P unexpectedly, Japan also has the chance to take away the business in the mainland of China.

Japan has always been considered to be overpriced, but in recent years there have been some shifts in the country's economic structure, or the situation has changed completely.

Hongkong Sam Ling Products Marketing Manager Jojo Lam also assessed the possibility that Japan's competitiveness has improved with the fall of the Japanese yen and can become an opponent of mainland China.

< p > < strong > price rise promotes product upgrading and innovation < /strong > < /p >

< p > in the face of price increase, many textile manufacturers strive to improve fabric quality so as to keep buyers.

Gu said their policy is to actively develop new products.

In the past, they focused on mass production, but now they are more interested in developing high-end products.

He said that in order to improve the quality of products, customers must be flexible and flexible.

< /p >

< p > increasing demand for innovative fabrics and rising labor costs are not the only reasons; in fact, many people believe that this is a natural consequence of market development.

< /p >

Carey, P, said that businesses need to upgrade their value and innovate constantly.

At present, the industry is less competitive in basic T-shirts. Instead, it has launched more innovative products of higher value, including functional or multi-purpose clothing, such as casual clothes and outgoing Yoga dresses.

Besides, buyers are also interested in environmental protection clothing and are interested in knowing more about them.

< /p >

< p > < strong > at least the order quantity is decreasing day by day < /strong > < /p >

Another hot topic at this year's exhibition is the demand for P to reduce the minimum order.

Some suppliers complain about this, others see it as a sign of profitability, which means that more independent enterprises and small and medium-sized companies begin or enter the market again.

< /p >

< p > Toronto Inspired Style by Spanner company's senior a href= http://www.91se91.com/ target= _blank, designer, /a and buyer, said that the minimum order quantity is a real problem, making it difficult for small companies to try and purchase new fabrics.

Although the company has been in operation for 40 years, the minimum order quantity is still hard to reach the large quantity set by large producers.

She said it is not easy to find someone who can or will cooperate with them.

< /p >

"P" sometimes, the minimum order quantity that the customer puts forward is too little, which makes the supplier feel embarrassed.

Cherry, < /p >, senior manager of Dong Yang Clothing Company, Zhejiang enterprise.

< p > Zhang, it is clear that many companies want to reduce the minimum order quantity, and buyers have inquired whether they can order less than 300 to 500 meters of fabric.

< /p >

< p > some manufacturers are obviously frustrated.

They said suppliers must clearly tell buyers how much time they need to deliver and how much quantity they want to order at least.

Speaking of this phenomenon, Carey said that insufficient communication is one of the main causes of production delays.

What exactly the manufacturer can do must explain clearly. The most important thing is to let the buyer understand the minimum order quantity and delivery time correctly.

< /p >

< p > < strong > tariff increases < /strong > /p >

< p > except for the rising prices in the mainland of China, many companies have noticed that the cost of other supply areas is also rising, especially in Turkey and Peru, which have increased tariffs.

Some manufacturers say that anti-dumping duties constitute a heavy burden on them.

The anti-dumping duty is a tax imposed by the importing government on imported products priced below the real market price.

< /p >

< p > for the ASM Industries company headquartered in Mumbai, tariff increase is indeed a difficult problem. Biplab Bera, vice president of the company, is deeply concerned about the situation.

At present, 30% of its products are exported to Peru and Turkey. These countries impose higher tariffs on their products, which will definitely affect the export business of the company.

Art director Louis Gerin and Gregory Lamaud pointed out that the industry began to abandon man-made fabrics and return to natural materials.

In terms of color prediction, they say orange, green and pink will become popular in 2015.

The brilliant orchid purple is the popular color of 2014. It is everywhere in the hall.

< p > buyers have different preferences for fabrics, and all kinds of products are being considered.

< /p >

< p > Bradley International Trade production assistant Ting Ting Lam said two different fabrics, one side is printed, the other side is pure color fabric is particularly popular.

< p > buyers have different attitudes towards the traditional fabric of linen.

Gramercy Associates consultant Mimi Irwin, headquartered in Dezhou, USA, clearly feels less than /p about the market situation.

< p > disappointment, indicating that the linen garments have great potential to return, but they are limited to woven fabrics instead of knitted products, and pure or mixed hemp knitted garments are not many.

< /p >

< p > independent fabric buyer Virindra Maloni looks for the linen for making men's shirt, and also finds it difficult to find suitable products to meet their needs.

She said that although T-shirts were not as popular as they used to be, some customers needed quality shirts, so she tried YISHION linen fabrics to make them.
