The Pressure Of China'S Hemp Textile Industry Is Increasing And Enterprises Need To Practise "Internal Strength" More.

1-5 months, China's Hemp

Gross profit, investment and linen in industry

Clothing exports increased slightly.

It is expected that the linen textile industry will continue to slow down in the second half of 2016.

Enterprises should practice more "internal strength", insist on innovation drive, attach importance to increasing variety, improving quality and strengthening.

The construction of the "three goods project" should focus on the market, adjust the structure and promote upgrading.

The growth of main business cost is higher than that of textile industry.

Investment in pre spinning and weaving industry has increased.

According to the National Bureau of statistics, the total revenue of 277 major textile enterprises above Designated Size reached 21 billion 994 million yuan in 1~5 months, an increase of 7.92% over the same period of 20 billion 379 million yuan in the same period last year, while the growth rate was below 10% for two consecutive years. The cumulative cost of main business was 19 billion 523 million yuan, up 8.75% from the same period last year, which is much higher than that of the textile industry.

Despite this adverse environment, the Ma textile industry has managed to consolidate exports and expand the domestic demand market by optimizing management. The total realized profit has reached 1 billion 112 million yuan, representing an increase of 4.70% over the same period last year of 1 billion 63 million yuan.

According to the statistics of National Bureau of statistics, the textile enterprises above Designated Size completed investment of 218 billion 470 million yuan in 1~5 months, an increase of 13.19% over the same period last year. Among them, the textile enterprises above Designated Size completed a total investment of 4 billion 758 million yuan, an increase of 13.84% over the same period last year. The investment direction mainly focused on the pre processing and spinning industry of hemp fiber and the weaving processing industry. The actual investment completed was 1 billion 914 million yuan and 2 billion 447 million yuan respectively, representing an increase of 25.27% and 14.89% respectively (see Table 1).

The growth of investment in the pre spinning and weaving industry will have a positive impact on the technical bottlenecks of the textile industry.

Raw materials account for 80% of total imports.

The growth rate of the three traditional export products has dropped sharply.

According to customs statistics, the total import and export volume of the national textile industry (excluding hemp clothing and garments) in the 1~5 months amounted to US $904 million, down 31.53% from the same period last year's US $1 billion 189 million.

In 1~5, the total import volume of the national textile industry was 355 million US dollars, down 8.27% from the same period last year's 387 million US dollars, showing a negative growth.

In 1~5 months, the total import amount of raw materials for Ma was 284 million US dollars, down 7.61% from the same period last year, and the total import volume was 346 thousand and 800 tons, up 7.85% over the same period last year. The total import value of the yarn was 42 million US dollars, down 14.95% compared to the same period last year, and the total import volume was 39 thousand and 700 tons, a decrease of 29.40% over the same period last year. The total import volume of linen fabrics was 23 million dollars, an increase of 3.42% last year, and the total import volume was 23 million meters.

It can be seen from the import amount that the raw material of hemp is the main import product, accounting for 80% of the total amount of imports (see Figure 2), showing a negative growth.

The main imports were flax and jute raw materials, and the total import volume of flax raw materials in 1~5 months was 75 thousand and 900 tons, down 6.71% from the same period last year, including 55 thousand and 900 tons of long linen and 55 thousand and 900 tons of short linen and two coarse 19 thousand and 600 tons. The total import amount was 191 million US dollars, down 5.93% from the same period last year. The average unit price of linseed imports increased by 0.8% over the same period last year.

From the import of raw materials, we can see that the production and processing situation of linen textile enterprises is not optimistic, raw material prices are rising, the demand for imported raw materials has dropped, and the Jute Textile processing industry has been gradually shrinking by various factors.

According to customs statistics, the total export volume of China's Hemp textile industry was 549 million US dollars in 1~5 months, down 31.63% from the same period last year's 803 million US dollars, and also showed a negative growth trend.

In 1~5 months, the total export volume of raw materials was 1798.50 tons, down 4.97% from the same period last year, and the export volume was 3 million 496 thousand and 300 US dollars, down 4.29% from the same period last year.

The cumulative export volume of hemp yarn was 1.52 tons, down 5.65% from the same period last year, and the export amount was 1.15 US dollars, down 15.59% from the same period last year.

The total export volume of linen fabrics was 105 million meters, down 24.56% from the same period last year, and the export amount was 330 million US dollars, down 34.04% from the same period last year.

The total export volume of Ma products was 100 million US dollars, down 38.36% compared to the same period (see chart 3).

It can be seen from the export amount that linen fabrics, hemp yarn and hemp products are the three traditional export products, accounting for 60%, 21% and 18% of the total export volume respectively, and their growth rates have declined sharply, showing a negative growth.

It is suggested that the export - oriented linen textile production enterprises should operate carefully in order to prevent the backlog of stock.

Linen yarn is the main export product in the export of hemp yarn.

The total export volume of linen yarn in 1~5 months was 104 million US dollars, down 13.73% from the same period last year, and the export volume was 12 thousand and 700 tons, down 1.69% from the same period last year. The cumulative average price of exports was 8.17 US dollars / kg, down 12.24% compared to the same period last year, mainly exported to India and Italy.

Linen fabrics and ramie fabrics are the main export products for the export of linen fabrics.

The total export volume of linen fabrics was $176 million in 1~5 months, down 8.64% from the same period last year, and the export volume was 63 million meters, down 5.12% from the same period last year. The cumulative average price of exports was 2.77 US dollars / meter, down 3.48% from the same period last year, mainly exported to Bangladesh and Vietnam.

The total export volume of ramie fabrics was 143 million US dollars, down 51.96% compared with the same period last year, and the export volume was 34 million meters, down 47.33% compared with the same period last year. The cumulative average price of export was 4.23 US dollars / meter, down 8.60% compared with the same period last year, mainly exported to Hongkong and Korea.

In terms of the export of Ma products, linen bedding, other hemp decorative products and linen table, toilet and kitchen utensils are the main export products, and their exports are showing a sharp downward trend.

The total export volume of 1~5 month linen bedding was 63 million US dollars, down 0.46% from the same period last year, mainly exported to the United States and South Korea. The total export volume of other decorative articles for decoration was 18 million US dollars, down 37.18% from the same period last year, mainly exported to Korea and Germany. The export of linen tables, toilets and kitchenware products was 11 million US dollars, down 82.66% compared to the same period last year, mainly exported to Malaysia and Singapore.

The export volume of linen garments increased.

Slower growth in the second half of the year

According to customs statistics, the total export of hemp garments in China in the 1~5 months was 10 billion 523 million US dollars, up 2.26% from 10 billion 290 million US dollars in the same period last year, and the total number of garments exported to 1 billion 720 million was up 11.48% from 1 billion 543 million in the same period last year.

According to customs data, 57 cotton, 30 flax 8 polyester 5 polyamide woven trousers (casual European Code A) and 92 8 polyester linen woven jackets (sub code 60119) are the main export varieties.

The main export markets of the former are the United States, the United Kingdom and Japan. In the past 5 years, the demand for these 3 markets is relatively stable. The main export markets of the latter are the United States, Vietnam and Japan. The Japanese market is relatively stable, and the demand of the United States and Vietnam has been developing rapidly since 2013. However, the fluctuation of the Vietnamese market is too large and the market in 2016 is falling rapidly.

In recent years, China's hemp clothing and accessories have taken a place in the most mature and important clothing market in the world, especially in the United States and Japan.

The two export markets gradually recovered after the economic crisis, and their consumption capacity gradually increased.

The linen textile industry should focus on the changes in stock prices of raw materials and products, learn and innovate marketing technologies and channels for terminal products, and strive to create new economic growth points.
