Observation: acceleration of industrial integration

A series of strategic cooperation events of garment enterprises are synchronized with the tide of diversified investment and merger and reorganization of garment enterprises, which is the embodiment of accelerating the integration of garment industry.

Cooperation and mergers and acquisitions often go hand in hand.

Under the influence of various forces such as the pformation of China's economic structure, the integration and reconstruction of garment industry, the pformation and upgrading of garment enterprises, and the change of clothing consumption market, garment enterprises need to find new outlets, new boundaries, and new ways to raise efficiency and reduce costs, which will lead to more strategic cooperation events.
