The factors leading to the decline of exports are mainly three aspects: first, due to the long holidays of the Spring Festival, the enterprises concentrated their shipments in January, resulting in a corresponding reduction in exports in February. Two, the export base was larger in the same period last year. Last February, the export volume of textile and clothing reached 16 billion 400 million US dollars, up nearly 70% compared with the same period last year.
