"Bad Environment" Is Not Just A Pretext, But The New "Peak Season" Has Just Begun.

It was September 1st, the beginning of Kim Gu in the traditional textile season. Although Kim Gu is so close now, he can't feel much enthusiasm for the peak season. The doorway of the dealer is still missing. The office owners of the Loom factory are still not filled with contracts to be signed. There are no long queues in front of the dyed factories.

"Bad environment" is often mentioned by textile workers this year. Zhao Benshan used to ridicule in the program, so that we can "self check", you are the destruction of the environment of the people? However, if this is put into real life, if we have to find out the people who destroy the environment, the next estimate will get the most votes.

But this year's big "bad environment" is not an excuse. China's textile industry is facing unprecedented challenges.

The textile industry is a traditional pillar industry in China and has strong competitiveness in the international market. However, in recent years, as the global economic growth slows down, the textile industry is hovering in the stalemate of internal and external troubles, and the form of foreign trade is becoming more and more serious.

Textile and clothing import and export double down, the loss of orders is becoming increasingly serious.

As shown in the picture, in addition to the global financial crisis in 2009, the volume of foreign trade has shrunk sharply. China's textile and garment export growth has declined since 2014. In 2015, there was a chill wind, the first time in 6 years. During the year, the trade war between China and the United States has been repeated several times, and the trend of friction upgrading has been highlighted. China's textile and clothing import and export once again double down, export -1.62%, import -2.11%.

First of all, from the perspective of the environment, we can not expect that foreign trade will be able to maintain the growth rate of two digits, even 20% and 30% more than ten years ago. Secondly, from the perspective of competition pattern, with the rising production cost, the price competitiveness of products has been declining, and the textile industry of the rising Southeast Asian countries has caused a heavy blow to the Chinese market.

Looking around the current market, the weaving industry has deepened its weaving links, such as competitive pressure, large social inventory, small flow of funds and high cost of obtaining customers. On the other hand, Southeast Asian countries are constantly picking up domestic orders through their cheap labor and preferential tariff policies. Now many textile companies are under pressure to choose factories for Southeast Asian countries.

Southeast Asia's textile market is the most powerful competitor of Vietnam.

As shown above, the export volume of textiles in Vietnam is increasing year by year. The average annual growth rate is over 20%. 。 Textile exports amounted to US $4 billion 840 million in 2005, reaching US $36 billion in 2018. Its textile and clothing exports account for a comparative increase from 4.21% to 12.95% in China. In the 1-7 months of the year, Vietnam's textile and clothing exports amounted to US $18 billion 300 million, which was slightly lower than the same period in the previous year.

In the medium and long term, China's textile industry is facing certain geo economic crisis, and foreign trade risks are stronger than opportunities. At present, Sino US trade war is becoming more and more intense. This year's Kim Gu has also increased a lot of uncertainty. But today's "peak season" seems to be no longer the traditional peak season. It can adapt to changes, keep pace with industrial adjustment, make products done by everyone better, and develop products that others can not do, and innovation power becomes the core competitiveness of enterprises. In the peak season of textile industry, we must fight for ourselves later. Competitive enterprises are busy every day, and the less competitive enterprises are off-season every year. This is no longer an empty talk. Source: chemical fiber sinks, long Zhong information and network
