The Way Out For Textile And Garment Industry In 2016 Depends On Whether B2B Is Feasible.

Yarn industry, bloom industry,

Why do we say that the textile industry has strong links with other industries? The three terminal consumption industries of the yarn industry, the bloom industry, and the textile industry constitute a core of the entire textile industry. Taking them as the core, the upstream involves large agricultural farming, aquaculture till the petrochemical industry, and even involves the refining industry of the national economic lifeline; taking them as the core, not only the fashionable and elegant entertainment industry but also the closely related real estate industry are closely related to us; besides, logistics and finance are indispensable in the industrial chain as a whole.

In the yarn industry, it can be roughly divided into three parts: raw material supply, yarn supply and yarn demand.

Raw materials can be divided into chemical fibers and natural fibers.

Among them, natural fibers are mainly cotton, linen, wool and silk. They have a longer distribution link from the output of origin to the acquisition of buyers, and the quality is not guaranteed.

Because of the different raw materials, the production process is different, such as fiber processing, cotton spinning and weaving, hemp spinning, wool spinning, silk spinning and weaving, and yarn is mainly distributed through hierarchical distributors.

In terms of yarn demand,

The purchasers include the manufacture of cloth for civilian and industrial purposes, including direct sales terminals.

In the fabric industry, it can be roughly divided into textile raw material suppliers, fabric manufacturers, and fabric buyers.

There are different pain points in different links.

Among them, there is a problem of non-standard fabric between the grey fabric manufacturer and the finished fabric supplier, which requires the standardization and labelling technology development of the production process, and serious pollution problems in the printing and dyeing links.

On the one hand, the distribution links of the finished fabrics will be diluted, and the traditional distribution way is not easy for buyers to find the cloth they want accurately, which also makes the finished fabric suppliers have the pressure of inventory.

The whole industry formed the situation of finding cloth and buying cloth. Besides, the existence of cloth intermediary also explained the serious information asymmetry of the cloth industry under the line.

As the representative industry of the three main categories of consumer goods in the textile industry, the clothing industry is mainly divided into raw materials market, clothing production and clothing companies.

The raw material market is equivalent to the traditional fabric manufacturer. The clothing manufacturer is equivalent to the garment factory, and the clothing brand is equivalent to the clothing company.

Clothing companies have different modes of light and weight. Heavy clothing companies have their own garment technology teams and garment processing plants. The clothing companies of light mode mainly run clothing brands.

In the whole apparel industry chain, the information asymmetry between the apparel producers and the fabric market leads to the difficulty in selling cloth and buying cloth. Besides, the distribution channel of clothing is long and the links are many, so the cost is increased and the profit is increased.

Traditional textile industry B terminal pain point urgently needs to solve the long chain of textile enterprises and strong correlation with other industries, which has led to the complexity and diversity of the industry, and the pain in the industry is also very obvious.

Yarn industry.

Upstream is chemical fiber plant, cotton and linen growers and farmers, downstream is the fabric supplier.

In traditional industries, yarn raw material procurement and finished product distribution chain are long, middle cost is high, raw material price of cotton and other raw materials fluctuate greatly, affecting raw material purchase quantity, raising inventory and management cost. Yarn has obvious information asymmetry with the two periods before and after, and the precise matching is difficult.

Cloth industry

Upstream carries on the yarn, the downstream docking textile clothing supplier, the traditional pattern exists that the manufacturing business is far from the market, the decision is slow, causes the stock to be overabundant, the bargaining power is weak; the textile production capacity is surplus, the homogenization is serious, the product localization and the user localization need to be upgraded urgently; the product added value is low, is difficult to standardize, the order fragment has the big contradiction with the production scale.

Garment industry

The upper and lower reaches are surface accessories and consumers. On this chain, clothing products are difficult to standardize, the procurement side has strong personalized demand, the supply and demand sides are hard to match efficiently, the middle links are many, the profits are pressed, and profits are exploited by middlemen.

Overall, the whole

The characteristics can be summed up as four points: product SKU, asymmetric information, high decision cost, long circulation chain, low efficiency, and full market competition.

These four points coincided with the development conditions of B2B business.

Tobey research team believes that the B2B electricity supplier has brought three benefits to the textile industry: first, the B2B electricity supplier shortens the number of textile industry pactions and the number of logistics, and creates a flexible supply chain to improve the efficiency of the supply chain; second, the B2B electricity supplier solves the difficult problem of finding goods in the textile industry, provides front-end buyers, provides back-end suppliers, and breaks the information island situation; third, the B2B electricity supplier cuts through the service, leading the new business mode and profit mode of the textile industry.

There are also multiple sites linked to B2B pactions in the industrial chain of the entire textile industry. Raw materials suppliers and raw materials processors, raw materials processors and manufacturers, brands and franchises / agents, brands to sales terminals are all suitable for B2B entry.
