Foreign Trade Data: Analysis Of Import And Export Situation Of Leather Industry In The Past Year

　　 Leather chemical products

Leather chemical products are the main raw materials of leather industry. In 2021, uncertain factors of overseas trade are highlighted. As a global manufacturing factory, China has obvious advantages in labor-intensive industry. Domestic leather enterprises have accepted many emergency orders. As an upstream product, the import value of leather chemical industry will also rise. In 2021, China's total imports of all kinds of tanning materials will be 136600 tons (117600 tons in 2020), with an increase of 16.1%, and the total import amount will be 201 million US dollars (165 million US dollars in 2020), with an increase of 21.8%.

At the same time, domestic production and consumption demand provide strong support for the steady growth of leather industry export, and also greatly stimulate the vitality of market main body.

In 2022, China's economy will gradually return to normal operation. Although the external environment becomes more complex and severe, and domestic development also has certain pressure, the overall import and export trade of leather industry is expected to remain stable. However, it should be reminded that although the global economy and trade have gradually returned to stability, under the background of the global economic downturn, the upsurge of anti globalization trend, and the still severe and complex epidemic situation at home and abroad, the import trade of China's leather industry will still have great uncertainty in the future, China's leather industry import trade situation, import product structure and source may have some adjustment.
