How Big Is The Development Space Of Xinjiang'S Textile And Garment Industry?

Xinjiang has abundant cotton resources and neighboring countries such as Central Asia. It has a good foundation for developing the textile and garment industry. With the strong support of national policies, Xinjiang's textile and garment industry has been developing rapidly, and the textile and garment industry in Xinjiang has played an important role in attracting employment and promoting harmony and stability. With the gradual improvement of the industrial chain and the adjustment of the international cotton textile and garment trade structure, Xinjiang's unique resources and location advantages will become China's cotton textile and garment production base and important export base.

First, Xinjiang's textile and garment industry has achieved rapid development.

Xinjiang is an important cotton production base in China. In recent years, policy support has promoted the rapid development of Xinjiang cotton textile and garment industry. According to the national cotton market monitoring system data, 2018/2019 cotton planting area is 48 million 251 thousand mu in the year of 2018/2019, of which Xinjiang accounts for 71.6%, the total output of cotton in China is 6 million 105 thousand tons, and Xinjiang accounts for 83.6%. Since Xinjiang launched the project of developing the textile and garment industry to drive millions of people to work in 2014, the implementation of a series of important policies has greatly promoted the development of Xinjiang's textile industry and made Xinjiang the fastest growing region of the country's textile industry. Xinjiang's textile production capacity increased from 7 million in 2014 to around 18 million in 2018. According to the National Bureau of statistics, the output of Xinjiang yarn reached 1 million 836 thousand and 500 tons in 2018, 4.5 times higher than that in 2014, and the output of cloth was 287 million 478 thousand meters, which was 6.4 times that of 2014. According to incomplete statistics, the textile and garment industry achieved 40 thousand new jobs in 2014, 97 thousand in 2015, 111 thousand and 800 in 2016 and 103 thousand and 500 in 2017. According to the Xinjiang textile and garment industry development plan (2018 2023), Xinjiang's total industrial chain capacity is expected to reach 1 million by 2023.

Two, Xinjiang's textile and garment industry policies are inclined to high quality and export promotion.

Since Xinjiang launched the policy of vigorously developing the textile and garment industry to stimulate employment of millions of people in 2014, the investment in Xinjiang's textile and garment industry has been growing rapidly. In order to control the unordered expansion of cotton spinning capacity and improve the industrial production and trade structure, in 2018, the circular on strengthening the construction management of cotton spinning construction projects and promoting the development of high quality industries pointed out that the new development concept should be fully implemented. Promoting the high quality development of cotton spinning industry. At the same time, the notice on further improving the policy of textile and garment industry in autonomous region pointed out that it supports enterprises to "go out". Support for apparel, home textiles, knitting and other terminal industries to participate in various exhibitions such as Russia, Central Asia and other countries, cross-border e-commerce and international market development. The Xinjiang textile and garment industry development plan (2018 - 2023) pointed out that by 2023, Xinjiang's cotton textile industry had the highest level of equipment and technology, and the technological innovation capability and endogenous power of the enterprises increased further, and the product quality and regional brand increased significantly. Taking the southern Xinjiang as the key point, we should carry out the new development concept, foster the endogenous driving force of the industry, create the industrial ecological environment and increase the pace of market development. The policy will focus on the development of Xinjiang's textile and garment industry to a high quality development, and build a new competitive advantage of Xinjiang's textile and garment industry, and stimulate the industry to expand the market along the "one belt and one road".

Three, the market potential of Xinjiang's neighboring countries is huge.

Xinjiang is located in the subcontinent of the European continent. The north is connected with Russia, Mongolia, West to Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, and southwest to India, Pakistan and Afghanistan. It runs through Central Asia to Europe, connecting two markets at home and abroad, and becoming a hub for opening China to the West. According to the statistics of the United Nations Statistics Department, the proportion of GDP in Central Asian countries increased gradually from 2000 to 2000. It accounted for 0.2% of global share in 2000 and 0.4% in 2017. Among them, Kazakhstan's GDP growth rate reached 7.3% in 2018, 6.2% in Turkmenistan and 5.1% in Uzbekistan. As Xinjiang's surrounding economies pick up, demand growth and consumption upgrading will drive the development of Xinjiang's textile and garment industry. The five Central Asian countries are the largest market for textile and clothing exports in Xinjiang, accounting for 80% of the total export volume of Xinjiang's textile and clothing. The Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region's relevant departments have investigated the textile demand market around Xinjiang. In the next 10 years, the volume of textile and garment market in Central Asia, Russia and Europe will reach 1 trillion and 600 billion yuan. If Xinjiang can open the west to the export market, Xinjiang's textile and garment industry will have broad room for development. With the normalization of the operation of China and Europe, the transportation time and cost of Xinjiang's textile and clothing products to Central Asia and Europe have been greatly reduced. Apart from the factors of transportation subsidies, the cost advantage is more obvious than that of Xinjiang's goods transported to the mainland and then transported from the mainland to the European market.

After five years of development, the textile and garment industry in Xinjiang has begun to take shape. A number of policies have been encouraged to implement, so as to enhance the links of cotton, spinning, weaving and clothing in Xinjiang. The foundation of the cotton textile and garment industry chain has been formed. At present, most of Xinjiang's textiles and clothing are transported to the mainland for consumption or re transshipped to the international market. With the deepening of the "one belt and one way" initiative, the operation of the central European train is normalized, and Xinjiang has become the most convenient area for our textile and clothing exports to the West and Central Asia. Xinjiang's unique regional advantages and the core role of its opening to the West will become more prominent. Xinjiang's textile and garment industry's textile and garment export potential will usher in a broader space for development. Taking into account the sustained development of the industry and not relying too much on policy support, Xinjiang textile and garment enterprises should pay close attention to the market of the ten countries around Xinjiang.
