China'S International Leather Exhibition Business Platform Highlights

Since the beginning of this year, the economic operation of China's main leather industry has shown a trend of "slowing down, stabilizing and steadily rising".

From the data point of view, 1-8 months in 2014, China's leather industry sales revenue, profit and export growth rate were 9.8%, 13.7% and 10.3%, respectively, except for a slight decline in sales growth, and the growth rate of profits and exports both accelerated.

The analysis of the operation trend of the comprehensive industry in recent years shows that the growth rate in the future is expected to continue to be stable.

In fact, the macro data and the industry perception are not exactly the same. The impact of the new economic normal on the leather industry is increasingly apparent, and the feelings of different enterprises are also different.

And these can be from ACLE/CIFF/MODA SHANGHAI2014 (China International Leather Fair, China International Footwear Exhibition and China International luggage, Qiu Ji)

And the fashion show.

After all, China International Leather Exhibition is a great achievement of the industry. It integrates the resources of the whole world and channels the essence of the channel.

New products have more pricing power

In the period of deep adjustment of industry, China International Leather Exhibition, as an important business platform, plays an increasingly prominent role in displaying new technologies and products, displaying brand value, promoting product strategy, attracting domestic and foreign customers, and expanding the market.

The price of raw leather in the upper reaches of the leather industry has gone up. The price of synthetic leather has been sliding down from 3.6 yuan / square meter to 1.35 yuan / square meter, and the price of natural rubber is also showing a downward trend, from 40 thousand yuan per ton to 13 thousand yuan per ton during the peak period.

Although the price pressure of raw materials is relieved, the cost of labor is difficult to mitigate.

Yu Jingmin, director of Zhejiang Hua RI plastic products Co., Ltd., introduced that the annual increase rate of labor costs reached 8%-9%, while the prices of the original products were basically stable. There was no increase in prices in the past two years, but the profit rate of the enterprises increased slightly, mainly on the promotion of new products.

Hua RI plastics is mainly engaged in high-grade rubber soles. The price of the domestic sole is 40-50 yuan, while the price of their products is around 100 yuan.

Because of the fierce competition, and considering the cooperative relationship with customers, it is difficult for enterprises to raise the price of the original products, which has always maintained the original price level, but the new products can be substantially increased.

Take the foam rubber sole as an example, the cost price is 15 yuan, the selling price can reach 45 yuan, and the profit level can be imagined.

Developing new products to maintain profits is also one of the strategies of Suzhou trillion one shoe company.

Mega shoe industry originally dominated the snow boots, but in recent years, the market of snow boots has been rather chaotic. There are too many people entering the market, or they are either priceless or expensive.

Shen Weihua, general manager of mega footwear industry, said that the factory price of its domestic boots had dropped by more than 10 points.

Mega exhibition brings a brand new twist shoe series, known as "egg roll shoes", to fill the gap between terminal retail sales in spring and summer, so that it has seasonal products all year round, and the profits of new products are also considerable.

Shen Weihua said that the factory price of a pair of twisted shoes is over 70 yuan, but the selling price is over 200 yuan. Many manufacturers have expressed strong interest in their new products and are interested in acting as their agents.

Xu Jianxin, chairman of the public leather industry, who has been exhibiting for many years, said that the enterprises are facing the adverse factors such as the price fluctuation of raw leather import, the rising cost of labor and the increasing pressure of environmental protection. The output has been affected, but the sales revenue has not been greatly affected by the unit price increase, but the benefits have been affected.

The company has brought the newly developed "goat conductive glove leather" suitable for touching all kinds of electronic products, which has been well received by Chinese and foreign businessmen.

Zhou Hua, chairman of Haining Rising Star Leather Co., Ltd., the purpose of this trip is to further understand the market development trend through the exhibition and look for new products of high quality and environmental protection.

Many enterprises have launched new products by exhibitions.

AOKANG officially released the "Kim Su Hyon Asian Games custom series" Bullock shoes made for Korean star Kim Su Hyon.

At the opening ceremony of the Inchon Asian Games, held in South Korea in September 19th, Kim Su Hyon, who was the guest of the opening ceremony, appeared on the series of shoes.

AOKANG also launched the "AOKANG Experience Hall" at the exhibition. As an upgraded version of AOKANG International Pavilion launched last year, AOKANG chairman Wang Zhentao introduced the "AOKANG experience Museum" to pay more attention to the personalized experience of consumers, and to help consumers meet more needs by means of online and offline joint sales. This also shows the direction of the future development of AOKANG -- building China's leading footwear retail service operator.

Baihua shoe industry is also very rewarding. Not only has it signed a high price order of 50 US dollars with its customers in Australia, but also has conducted in-depth negotiations with French manufacturers. If it hits the version successfully, it can get a large list of 500 thousand pairs. Besides, there are also foreign customers who said they should go to factory inspection in person recently.

During the visit, India raw material manufacturers came to discuss cooperation matters, and offered to supply at a low price.

Guo Xingmei, general manager of the company, said that this exhibition is a rewarding journey: it used to serve people, but now it is serving the door, and it doesn't have to run everywhere.

However, because there were too many customers to talk about, and the exhibition hall was too large, she regretted not having fully visited the exhibition.

It has unified special features to highlight the regional brand of Huidong footwear industry, and display more than 300 fashionable women's shoes.

Relevant ministries and commissions and local ministries and commissions have issued detailed policies and measures for this theme, which will force enterprises to make innovations in products, equipment, environmental protection and other technological innovations.

"The middle and low end market has been relatively saturated, and breaking through to the high end is the only way for Kangnai group to grow its brand."

Zheng Xiukang, chairman of Kangnai group, said.

Kangnai shoes shows the current international advanced level of non-contact white light four eye 3D foot scanner. Customers are standing on a pparent glass turntable with only one key operation. The turntable will automatically rotate. The high-definition shooting device will automatically shoot every dimension of the customer's feet, and instantly get the complete three-dimensional data of the whole foot.

"Kangnai family" business department official said, "Kangnai family" is willing to set up a private exclusive data file for each guest, through scientific and meticulous foot measurement, to achieve personalized customization.

This advanced equipment has attracted the attention of many spectators. During the exhibition, Kangnai collected more than 300 guests' foot data.

For example, its new high-performance waterproof leather fatliquoring agent, HP, adopts advanced dispersing technology, which reduces the production time by 30% compared with the traditional process, saves energy and reduces emissions, and does not contain solvents and adsorbable organic halides.

Another major chemical giant, LANXESS, is the "sustainable solution", which shows the new leather production technology for the future, taking into account economic benefits, ecological rationality and consumer interests.

Tanning manufacturers can reduce chemical oxygen demand (COD) by 30% at most in wastewater treatment, and produce wet blue leather that meets high technology requirements, such as leather materials used for automobiles or children's footwear.

For future expectations, through visits to a number of exhibitors, the industry generally believes that the industry may need two to three years of pition.

Admittedly, the leather industry in China has entered a new era of innovation and change. This is the pformation period from quantity to efficiency, and the pformation period of industry towards product innovation, technological innovation and mode innovation. It is also a forging period from big country to powerful country.
