"Made In China" Takes Off The "Bad Hat" With Poor Quality.

"Made in China" has always been synonymous with Jerry building and cheap goods.

In the past, few Western luxury brands were willing to admit how much of their products were made in China.

The Wall Street journal once made such an appraisal of "made in China" in a previous report.

But this inherent impression is changing.

An article from quartz6, a well-known American technology blog, said that the quality of Chinese clothing has improved significantly in recent years, 4 days ago.

This article points out that in recent years, China's apparel industry has invested a lot of money and technology in training staff and clothing production, and the working conditions and environment of factories have also been improved.

Especially as China's exports of clothing are increasing year by year, factories are paying more attention to these areas.

In fact, as early as last year's "China Development Summit Forum", CEO Sam Walton of Rio Tinto, an internationally renowned mining group, publicly stated that sometimes Chinese suppliers are still affected by negative views, that is to say, the quality of the products of Chinese suppliers is very poor, and the service industry is very poor. In fact, such a view is not applicable for a long time.

Although "sweatshops" still exist in China, China has become the "stronghold" of technical designers, and the garment industry is becoming more mature.

Not only that, China now has some brands that can be widely recognized and recognized globally, which provides good products for the global market with both price and quality advantages at the same time.

"If I only want to make a man's jeans, maybe I will make the factory in Pakistan.

But if I want a woman's coat, I'll let the Chinese garment factory finish it. "

Edward Holzman, a partner in a trade magazine, said in an interview with quartz.

In his view, the workers in Chinese garment factories are more skilled and have a better understanding of fashion.

"The entire clothing manufacturing industry has been highly concentrated in China, which is indeed shocking."

Author Elizabeth Cline said.

She believes that a city near Shanghai actually provides the world's vast majority of socks - 1 to 9 billion pairs.

In Zhejiang Province, there are 5000 factories in production.

。

Besides, China has many large underwear cities, sweater city and so on.

High concentration and concentration make these factories more mature, exquisite and more systematic.

In fact, there are many international first-rate luxury brands, including Burberry, Armani and Prada, which are "foundry" in China.

Because in the eyes of these enterprises, China can "live" not only because China's labor force is cheap, but also because Chinese people can provide better quality products.

According to the Wall Street journal, Prada's 20% luxury goods are currently manufactured by Chinese factories.

A head of the company said in a media interview that the scale will be bigger in the future.

And China is also bringing up a group of new designers with international vision.

They will increase firepower for this trend.

The above view is not difficult to understand.

Chinese leader Xi Jinping, Mrs. Peng Liyuan, is mainly dressed in domestic brands, which greatly boosted the influence and profits of domestic brands.

The brand "exception" is also coming into the field of vision.

The exception, designer Marco, was invited to show a product line in Paris's fashion show in 2008.

Her works often remind people of the works of avant-garde Western designers, but she uses Chinese dyeing and textile technology.

Chinese

It is also very satisfactory to employers, Hongkong.

Group CEO Roger Lee told quartz: "in the past, 60% of our business was assigned to 10 factories in the United States, but efficiency was often very slow, and a shirt came out for 2 weeks, too slowly.

And a shirt from a Chinese factory can reach 4 hours.

Holzman said that perhaps "made in China" does not mean that Chinese goods are absolutely high quality.

But there is no doubt that China's entire garment manufacturing industry is still developing.

Hertmann also believes that buyers and order providers are expecting more and more of Chinese made goods.
