Taiwan Enterprises Boost Shishi Textile And Garment Industry Upgrading

There are indications that Taiwanese enterprises are becoming a strong brigade to boost the upgrading of Shishi textile and garment industry. Reporters learned from Shishi Branch of Quanzhou Association of Taiwanese businessmen that from 1 to June this year, Taiwan funded enterprises entering the Shishi industry reached 42, an increase of 70% over the same period last year.

According to statistics, at present, there are more than 250 Taiwan funded enterprises in Shishi, most of which are concentrated in the textile and garment industry.

Under the background of the big three links across the Taiwan Strait, Taiwan's investment in Shishi has increased significantly.

Different from the past, these new enterprises focus on new fields such as emerging fabrics, textile machinery, trade, R & D, design and so on.

As the leading industry of Shishi, the textile and garment industry is attracting more and more Taiwanese capital to invest in the industry.

This is the peak season for textile and garment production.

In Shishi Taiwan funded enterprises Pengcheng Industrial Co., Ltd., the workshop is busy.

Chairman Wu Xinmin told reporters that after the impact of last year's international financial crisis, the company's operating rate remained at 100% this year, and orders grew by more than 150% over the same period.

The textile company, which develops and produces new fabrics, has now become a major supplier of Quanzhou brand enterprises such as the seven wolves and the powerful companies.

"The reason why we entered the stone lions is that the stone lions and the huge textile and garment industry around them, where we produce knitted fabrics and other garment materials nearby, are very advantaged and have a very strong advantage. In recent years, the annual output value of our new fabric projects has been maintained at two digits."

Chairman Wu Xinmin said.

It is understood that the new functional fabric produced by Pengcheng Industrial Company has applied for four patents, and technology has entered the world first class, leading the development trend of Shishi fabric.

In Shishi taifan Textile Machinery Co., Ltd., a new type of textile circular knitting machine was sent from the workshop to Jinjiang, Quanzhou and Xiamen.

Since last year, the Taiwan funded enterprise has seized the opportunity of textile pformation and invested about 20000000 yuan for R & D. The new spinning machine produced is not only of high precision, but also can save labor costs.

"The original operation requires 12 workers, and now these new equipment is converted to 8 people.

In the context of higher labor costs, such equipment is particularly popular this year.

Moreover, using this spinning machine, the product quality stability has also been greatly improved, "Shi Chunqing, general manager, told reporters.

As the source of Fujian textiles and clothing, Shishi's textile and garment industry has been strongly concerned by the Taiwan industry.

In the first wave of industrial pfer of textile and garment industry in Taiwan in the 90s of last century, more than 100 manufacturing enterprises entered Shishi.

Since the beginning of the new century, with the gradual growth of Fujian textiles and garments, at present, the output value of the textile and garment industry around Shishi and its surrounding areas exceeds 100 billion.

In recent years, the second wave of industrial pfer of Taiwan's textile and garment industry has begun to push forward to the mainland. The links of R & D, design, sales and trade have also been gradually pferred to the mainland. Shishi, with the advantages of five edges and industrial foundation, is firmly seized by this rare opportunity and has become the direct beneficiary of the second wave of industrial pfer.

According to incomplete statistics, at present, there are more than 100 companies engaged in textile and garment trade only in Shishi, and 100 designers in Taiwan are engaged in costume design in Shishi each year.

Cai Dongliang, deputy director of Shishi Foreign Affairs Bureau, said that the textile and garment industry with stone lions as the center has a complete industrial cluster and has irreplaceable advantages in textile, printing and dyeing, garment making, design, research and development, logistics and other links. It has become the preferred place for Taiwanese capital to enter the mainland's textile and garment industry.

After entering the Shishi, these Taiwanese investors played a leading role in all aspects, especially in the field of technology and R & D, which made up for some shortcomings of Shishi textile and garment industry.
