New Challenges In Textile Industry And Breakthrough In Industrial Transfer

2015 is the end of the 12th Five-Year plan and the year of the 13th Five-Year plan. So this year's China textile industry The spring survey of the Confederation is different from the past. While investigating and investigating the operation of the industry, including market analysis, factors of production change and policy environment, it has also been entrusted with a new mission to distinguish the fresh and normal and grasp the new direction, aiming at providing support for the compilation of the 13th Five-Year plan.

Beginning in the early March, the multi-channel research group, under the leadership of the China Textile Federation, went to Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Shandong, Jiangsu, Guangdong, Fujian, Anhui and other key textile industry areas and enterprises to conduct research. With the structural optimization, innovation driven, responsibility development and other key issues, this spring big research is divided into 7 ways.

The survey focused on the achievements and major problems of various industrial clusters and key enterprises since the "12th Five-Year". We have learned about the new initiatives in 13th Five-Year and in the future to achieve innovation driven and structural adjustment in the context of the new normal.

It is believed that under the support of these detailed surveys and pertinent suggestions, the "13th Five-Year plan" of China's textile industry will be more landing and the goal will be clearer.

　　 Industrial transfer We need to find new breakthroughs.

Under the new normal situation, China's economic situation is facing a new stage. For the textile industry, regional structural adjustment and industrial transfer have also entered a new stage. The mode of attracting industrial transfer solely relying on cost advantages has gradually weakened, and the original mode can no longer meet the current development needs.

Under this background, how should we adjust the regional structure and industrial transfer of China's textile industry? How should we grasp the direction and trend? These are not only related to the growth of the local economy, but also to the future of the development of the entire textile industry.

With these questions, on March 9~13, the regional structural adjustment research team headed by Wang Tiankai, chairman of China Textile Industry Federation visited the textile enterprises of two provinces of Jiangxi and Anhui on the spot, and made in-depth understanding of the operation of the industries, the development of enterprises, the adjustment of regional structure and the transfer of industries.

Slowdown in industrial transfer

Research shows that since the "12th Five-Year", Jiangxi has firmly grasped the historical opportunity for the textile industry to shift to the central and western regions, and constantly strengthened the undertaking platform, vigorously inviting investment, attracting a large number of key projects to settle down, and thus the textile industry embarked on the road of rapid development.

Data can tell the best. According to the data provided by the Jiangxi Provincial Commission for Industry and commerce, 2011~2014 has invested 233 billion 419 million yuan in fixed assets, accounting for 7.09% of the total fixed assets investment in the textile industry, accounting for 22.23% of the total investment in fixed assets in the six provinces of the central region.

Through undertaking industrial transfer, Jiangxi textile industry has made three great achievements. First, the scale of the industry has grown rapidly, and the national position has moved forward comprehensively, moving from the twelfth position in 2008 to eighth in 2014; two, the garment industry has achieved leaping development to become the first big sub industry; the three is the rapid accumulation of cotton spinning capacity, and the cluster development trend is good.

But as China's economy has entered a new normal, economic growth has shifted from high speed to high speed, in 2014. Jiangxi Province The textile industry's production, sales and profits increased by 14%, 18.4% and 23%, respectively, while the three main indicators were basically the same as those in 2013, but fixed asset investment has declined for the first time in more than 10 years.

The slowdown in investment in fixed assets is also reflected in Anhui province. According to Yan Liming, vice president of Anhui Textile Industry Association, since 2012, the growth rate of textile industry investment in Anhui has slowed down, with 2012~2014 growth of -4.6%, 27% and 2.1% respectively.

"Although last year still benefited from the achievements of industrial transfer in the past few years, the growth rate of investment has slowed down obviously, with less strength and slower industrial transfer. Yan Liming said.

Although the trend of industrial transfer is slowing down, the main indicators of Anhui's textile industry are better than the national average. Statistics show that Anhui's yarn and cloth output increased by 10.4% and 8.9% over the same period last year, respectively, 3.9 and 9.4 percentage points higher than the national average. The clothing output increased by 5.8% over the same period last year, an increase of 4.2 percentage points higher than that of the whole country, and the total profit increased 2.3% over the same period, and the results exceeded expectations, and it was at a good level in the development history of Anhui's textile industry.

We should optimize the allocation of resources according to the market.

Wan Qingsheng, deputy director of Jiangxi provincial industrial and Commercial Commission, believes that the textile industry will continue to move forward in the opportunities and challenges in 2015 and 13th Five-Year. The industry will slow down the transfer to the central and western regions and gradually shift to the overall transfer mode. On the one hand, Wan Qingsheng analyzed the reasons for the return of manufacturing industry in developed countries, and some foreign investment returned to overseas factories. On the other hand, the developed provinces promulgated policies to encourage the transfer of enterprises in the province. Meanwhile, the industrial chain in the central and western regions is still not perfect, and there is a general lack of support from the professional market. In addition, the labor costs and land prices in the Midwest are increasing year by year, and the effect of reducing the cost of enterprises is not obvious, and the transfer intention is weakened. However, the increasingly tight resources and energy in the developed eastern provinces have forced the traditional textile industry with low income to seek outward development, and the external transfer of individual enterprises has been restricted by the above conditions.

"It is expected that the mode of industrial transfer will gradually shift to the overall transfer of enterprises in the next few years. Only this kind of transfer can make the undertaking areas work hard to solve the matching problems and achieve win-win cooperation." Wan Qingsheng said.

In fact, in the past few years in the textile industry's transfer, apart from the gradual weakening of cost advantages and the imperfect industrial chain, more importantly, the industrial level of the enterprises transferred is low.

Several textile enterprises visited in Jiangxi, whose product structure is too single, still dominated by conventional primary processing products, with small profit margins and large risks and weak capability of independent innovation.

The constraints of many factors also allow some enterprises in the industry to continue to shift their ideas to other advantageous areas. Jiangxi Feng Zhu Textile Co., Ltd. responsible person said that the transfer of textile industry is like the twenty-five thousand mile long march, before the containment, followed by the pursuit of troops. "The prices of products in Southeast Asia such as India and Pakistan are much lower than ours. At the same time, the textile industry in Xinjiang is rising, and the price of products is lower than ours. We are now attacked by both sides and intend to continue to move to the western region."

Xia Xiaoming, general manager of Shenzhou knitting (Anhui) Co., Ltd. believes that there are two main factors in the success of enterprise transfer. The first is the strong support of the local government, especially in terms of recruitment. Two, the company should increase efforts to stabilize the workforce. "We invested 110 million yuan to build an apartment for employees, to ensure that all the team leaders lived in 10 years free of charge, and 10 years later, the property rights belong to individuals. Such efforts are rare in textile enterprises."

Yan Liming said that Anhui will focus on the optimization and upgrading of its total volume in terms of industrial transfer, guide and optimize the transfer of textile industry, focus on developing high-end products with high added value such as industrial, home textiles and clothing, and accelerate the construction of textile characteristics Park in Anqing Huamao International Textile Industrial City, and play a cluster size effect. At the same time, encourage qualified large enterprises to merge or integrate some small enterprises with weaker strength but better processing and manufacturing capabilities to enhance industrial concentration, enhance brand market control ability, and constantly enhance their ability to resist risks.

Wang Tiankai pointed out that the key elements of regional structural adjustment and industrial transfer are undergoing important changes. The transfer advantage that is attracted solely by cost has gradually weakened, and the original mode can no longer meet the current development needs. Therefore, regional structural adjustment and industrial transfer need to find new breakthroughs and new ways. We should thoroughly explore the combination point of industry market development and industrial structure, accurately judge the development prospects of regional structural adjustment and industrial transfer, dig out the potential of industrial development, and optimize the allocation of resources according to the market.

"Future restructuring of the region should be concerned with several issues. First, combined with the national strategic decision, the "one belt and one road" is not perfect without textile support, and the Beijing Tianjin Hebei Development Strategy and the construction of the Yangtze River Economic Development Zone also have great opportunities. Two, regional restructuring is market behavior. Three, it is more difficult to recruit workers in the future, and how to stabilize the workforce is the most critical. " Wang Tiankai said.
