Customs Statistics: China Tanning Industry Runs Smoothly Overall.

< p > according to the statistics of the National Bureau of statistics and the < a > the General Administration of Customs < /a >, statistics show that the economic operation of China's leather industry is stable in the 1~4 month of 2014. The number of tanneries in China is expected to decrease in the next few years, but the scale of enterprises will expand, and the output and demand of leather and leather products will remain stable and increase slightly. < /p >
< p > < strong > maintain stable and good development trend < /strong > < /p >
< p > > a > tannery < /a > industry sales revenue has increased rapidly and profitability has been increasing. In 2014 1~4, the sales revenue of tannery enterprises above Designated Size in China increased by 47 billion 350 million yuan, an increase of 10.3% over the same period last year, and the profit margin of sales was 6.2%, 0.6 percentage points higher than that of last year. < /p >
< p > market demand is insufficient, light leather output and < a > Finished Leather > /a > imports have declined. In 2014 1~4, leather manufacturing enterprises in China above Designated Size made 172 million square meters of light leather, down 0.75% from the same period last year. In 2014 1~4, China imported 50 thousand tons of finished leather and 880 million US dollars, down 8.5% and 10.2% respectively compared with the same period last year. But this is not affected by illegal sewage disposal and smuggling cases in Xinji and Wuji tanning enterprises in Hebei, China, but mainly due to the low output of downstream leather products caused by the overall market environment at home and abroad, and the demand for finished leather. < /p >
< p > the import of raw and semi-finished leather has declined slightly, but is still in the normal fluctuation range. In 2014 1~4, China imported 730 thousand tons of leather and semi finished leather, 1 billion 780 million US dollars, down 2.1% and 5.5% respectively over the same period last year. < /p >
< p > China's leather industry will maintain a stable and favorable development trend, and the market demand for leather products will grow steadily. Su Chaoying, chairman of the China Leather Association, said that with the economic recovery of developed countries and the deepening of China's reform, it is expected that the tannery industry will continue to develop steadily in the second half of this year. The import and export volume will be slightly fluctuated by market impact. < /p >

< p > from the medium to long term, China's economy has many favorable conditions for sustained and healthy development, and the long-term trend towards good has not changed. Especially with the convening of the third Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee, the reform dividend will be released to a greater extent, and the demographic dividend will change to the quality dividend. The industries with more complex and densely human capital will have new advantages. The combination of urbanization and informatization, green low carbon and other new trends can release the new driving force of industrial upgrading; the consumption promotion of living and row LED will continue to push forward, and the development potential of service consumption is huge. According to the research group of the development research center of the State Council, the average annual growth of GDP in China can still be maintained around 7% by 2020. According to this development rate, the eighteen major proposals put forward: "achieving GDP and the per capita income of urban and rural residents by 2020 will double" in 2010, and the goal of building a well-off society in an all-round way will have a more substantial material foundation. < /p >
< p > Su Chaoying thinks that from the advantage of leather industry, although the factor cost is rising, the advantage of China's leather industry that has perfect industrial chain and high quality processing capability will become more prominent in the new round of competition. Although the export market is low, the pace of urbanization construction is further accelerated, and the new consumption market, including e-commerce, is extraordinarily active; the appearance of consumption patterns such as product customization and so on, makes consumption begin to change to service consumption. These changes in consumption environment and form provide a new space for China's leather industry to transform its business mode and expand its market. < /p >
< p > although the export growth rate of leather products is slowing down in China, the export structure of leather products is improving, the export market is becoming more diversified, and the steady growth trend of leather trade is improving. Foreign market investment opportunities are increasing, and the enterprises' "going out" space is very broad. Although the pressure of energy saving and emission reduction is huge, enterprises can improve themselves and behave more regularly; the trust degree of the government and the market to enterprises is enhanced; the power of enterprise innovation is obviously enhanced; resources are further gathered to high-quality enterprises; and the soft and hard strength of the whole industry has been experienced. < /p >
