Exported To Europe And America

By the end of the year, we should welcome the textile and garment foreign trade enterprises in the new year of purchasing season, but have gone through a bleak day.

Europe and the United States debt crisis dragged down the global economic downturn, coupled with the rising unemployment rate, inflationary pressure, consumers are increasingly tight wallet, which makes Europe and the United States merchants have to reduce procurement plan.

On the other hand, China's textile industry

The gradual weakening of the cost advantage of industry has also moved the market space for other Southeast Asian countries.

In the European and American markets like cold air crossing, how many cards can our textile and garment export companies play?


"Low volume and low price" has become an order commonality.


"Just need to drop, this is the most terrible.

Exchange rate fluctuations, rising raw material prices and rising labor costs can be digested by market demand.

But once demand is reduced, this is frightening.

Last year and the first half of this year, the main reason for the failure of factories was that the exchange rate fluctuated greatly, the profit margins were thin, and they did not want to take orders.

But now it is not available. "For the recent change in the European and American markets, many textile and garment enterprises have similar feelings.

This year 1~8 months, China's textile and clothing exports growth has been maintained at more than 20%, however, the adverse impact of the European and American debt crisis on China's textile and clothing began to appear in September, and the growth rate of textile and clothing exports fell to 14.8% in that month.

In October, China's textile and clothing exports continued to narrow. According to the latest express issued by the Ministry of Commerce, in October, the total export volume of textiles and clothing reached US $19 billion 650 million, an increase of 10.4%, of which 7 billion 450 million US dollars in textile exports, an increase of 18.4%, and 12 billion 200 million US dollars in clothing exports, an increase of only 6%.


In addition to trade data, the Canton Fair (China Import and Export Fair), which can best reflect changes in external demand, also conveys unoptimistic market signals.

At the 110th Canton Fair, which has just been concluded, the textile and garment enterprises participating in the exhibition said that today the market in Europe and America is not as good as before, even worse than in the financial crisis of 2008.

"The most obvious feeling of this exhibition is that the volume of traffic is not as good as before. Some large customers in the US market did not come. Instead, customers from Brazil, Russia, Turkey and other countries grew up."

Xiong Weiwei, the G factory of the ODM Business Department of Zhuhai Wiseman Clothing Co., told a reporter.

At the Canton Fair, nearly 200 newly developed sweaters were displayed on two stands of Wiseman. The company hopes to attract more foreign businessmen's attention.

However, even if European and American businessmen stopped to negotiate, the sales staff of the Xiwei Wei team were still unable to get excited. "New acquaintances of American businessmen also have, but the price they offer is relatively low, so the profit is not high enough to talk about."

Xiong Weiwei said.


When the reporter telephoned a zipper enterprise in Ningbo, Zhejiang, Mr. Wang, the marketing manager of the company, admitted that "this year's business is rather lighter than last year, and the order volume is only about 70% of the same period last year."

Although most enterprises are reluctant to talk about it, compared with last year, export orders have become a common problem faced by textile and garment export enterprises.

"Our company is still good, some of the European and American market orders are less than last year's 1/10, the factory is basically in a state of maintenance."

Mr. Wang said.


New product line rushes out "profit card"


The grim situation of exporting to Europe and the United States is not to be ignored, but also the Guangdong just following the Canton Fair.

Zhao Minister of the Ministry of foreign trade of Textile Group believes that under the current situation, enterprises should not just complain about the big environment. What should be done most is to make timely and accurate market judgement, actively adjust the product structure, and create profits under the unfavorable situation of "low volume and low price".

"Even if the order quantity falls, the demand will still be there. The most important thing is to see how you do the market."

Minister Zhao said, "to do the European and American markets now has to change the way of thinking.

Compared with Southeast Asian countries, our cost advantage is no longer in existence. For the enterprises themselves, we should think about how we can create more profit margins.


At this time last year, the sharp rise in cotton prices threatened many export knitted gloves.

The interests of enterprises such as meager profit products, "enterprises like us can not digest too much cost pressure. Cotton prices rise by a 20%~30%, 5 yuan a pair of gloves are basically not profitable.

A sales representative of a knitting enterprise said that in order to alleviate the cost pressure of the rising cotton prices, the company began to expand its product line from the end of last year, increasing the proportion of polyester and man-made cotton products other than cotton products.

"The market of the yarn dyed scarves that we are doing now is very hot. The warp polyester and weft rayon fabrics feel better after finishing.

European and American businessmen like it very much, and sales volume is pretty good.

The sales representative said with a lingering fear that "cotton prices are falling now, and those companies that only make cotton products do not know how much pressure they need to sell high priced cotton scarves and gloves."
