Zhejiang'S Textile Industry Is Facing A Crisis Of Ice And Fire.

Since 2008, Hualian three Xin, the largest PTA manufacturer in Asia, has fallen into bankruptcy. After that, Jiang long holding group, China's largest printing and dyeing enterprise, is also facing bankruptcy crisis; the Yiwu Jin Wu group, the largest textile printing and dyeing enterprise in Zhejiang, Zhejiang, Zhejiang's wing Tong dyeing and weaving group, Shaoxing Wuhuan spandex industrial group, Zhejiang longitudinal and horizontal group, and other large textile printing and dyeing enterprises are bankrupt in succession in the fifth place. 6 years later, the textile enterprises in Zhejiang are in deep mire or are they gradually getting rid of difficulties? With this doubt, reporters recently visited some of the local textile enterprises.

Orders are falling and costs are rising. Many companies are having a hard time.

The sharp decline in orders, huge inventory pressure, rising labor costs, appreciation of the renminbi, price fluctuations of raw materials, and the superposition of various unfavorable factors caused many enterprises to be forced to cut production or even stop production. Another leather manufacturer's boss is obviously in a much more depressed mood. "Our small factory life is very sad, and the situation is not very good. In short, the environment is not good, orders are substantially reduced. The original order of 5000 meters is now reduced to 300 meters. How is the business life going?

For a large number of textile enterprises in recent years, although bankruptcy has been reported by some entrepreneurs, Fu general, a local foreign trade company, has said that this phenomenon is normal. "Enterprises are so old, bankruptcy is normal. This is just the beginning. After that, a large number of large enterprises will die. " Talking about the reasons, he thinks that the main reason is that the domestic professional manager system is not perfect, and many private entrepreneurs do not have the ability to manage large enterprises. So when the enterprise grows to a certain scale, it will start to go downhill because of the lack of management.

　　 Increase in export orders Domestic market confusion

Wang Jun, a local import and export company, told reporters that the sales volume of the two years is increasing at an annual rate of 60%. Although the market in the Middle East and South America was not very smooth last year, the new markets in North America and Europe were very good, which made up for the absence of the Middle East and South America. When reporters asked about the domestic situation, Wang appeared quite helpless. He told reporters that his company mainly focused on running volume in the international market, and the profit might be relatively low, about 8%~10%. The profit in the domestic market may be around 15%, but "it's too hard to ask for money in the domestic market!"

Like Wang, there are not many enterprises who are more willing to make international markets. Another local industry and trade enterprise always bluntly said: "the credit in the domestic market is so bad that the people in the industry make their own market bad." Take the total enterprises as an example, companies often develop some new products themselves, but these products will soon be imitated by other enterprises after entering the market, and the prices will always be lower. "Over time, the more tired we are," Yu told reporters. In addition to imitation, plagiarism, price war, the most difficult thing is to collect money. A customer once said to him, "I don't know if I want to remit the money, so I can't do it for you." it is obvious that the money owed to many customers has become accustomed to it.

It is understood that some local family workshop type private small businesses have gone bankrupt in recent two years, and the arrears of funds have ranged from tens to tens of millions. Some of them are still struggling, and some of them are on vacation. Some of them are on shift. In order to retain staff and not to start work, the owners will also symbolize a little wage. For those small businesses mainly engaged in processing business, "days are getting more and more sad!" an insider told reporters.

　　 foreign trade The market is not bad. Innovative products are popular.

So why do many companies feel increasingly sad? Keqiao textile Index Office experts told reporters that different types of enterprises export situation is different. "Like those large production enterprises, the situation was really tough in 2014." On the one hand, international oil prices continue to fall, resulting in a decline in raw material prices and prices of products. On the other hand, raw material prices are unstable, product inventory cycle is long and enterprise risk is big. Trade oriented enterprises are relatively relaxed. Although the international situation is not good, the volume of orders has dropped significantly, which is very stressful for the enterprises which are mainly run by volume, but "innovative fabrics are more popular". Therefore, small batch and more innovative fabric enterprises order growth is very fast.

Experts said that textile enterprises in the future could make breakthroughs in two aspects: raw materials enterprises should pay attention to the price risk of raw materials. Fabric Enterprises We must pay attention to innovation. In addition, large enterprises also need to learn from small and medium-sized enterprises, and the operation system of enterprises must be flexible. "At first glance, the situation is wrong. We must turn around immediately."

The transformation and development of enterprises is a difficult problem. "For trade oriented enterprises, because of their relatively small assets, bank loans are more difficult." A boss in the industry looks embarrassed. In Zhejiang, many enterprises adopt the mutual insurance system in order to obtain loans. But the frightening point of this model is that when a company in a joint insurance company goes bankrupt, it will drag on the well run enterprises to get into trouble. Looking at the collapse of large textile enterprises started in 2008, there are traces of mutual guarantee and joint insurance that emerge on the surface of the broken capital chain.

"The export situation can also be increased by more than 10% compared with (2013). In fact, the entire foreign trade market is not bad, the export amount is also rising, but the order is concentrated on the harder people. A partner from a local foreign trade enterprise told reporters. In fact, according to Chinese customs statistics, the import and export volume of fabrics in the first three quarters of 2014 was 30 billion 550 million meters, an increase of 1.7% over the same period last year, and the import and export volume was 45 billion 560 million US dollars, up 2.3% over the same period last year. Among them, the export volume was 28 billion 40 million meters, an increase of 3.2%, and the export amount was 40 billion 150 million US dollars, up 4%. According to the responsible person of the China Textile Import and Export Chamber of Commerce, Zhejiang's home textile exports ranked first in the first 10 months of 2014, an increase of 5.7%. In 2014, China's textile exports to the EU and the United States recovered faster, while the growth rate of exports to ASEAN was slower. Customs data showed that China's exports to the EU in the first three quarters of 2014 amounted to US $46 billion 6 million, an increase of 16.37% over the same period last year, a 10.31 percentage point increase over the same period last year, an increase of US $35 billion 278 million in US exports, an increase of 7.01% over the same period last year, an increase of 0.89 percentage points over the same period last year, and an export of ASEAN of 26 billion 37 million US dollars, up only 3.91% percentage points over the same period last year, and the growth rate dropped by 38.83 percentage points over the same period last year. The situation of some small and medium-sized trading companies coincides with the customs data. These companies are changing in a timely fashion, adjusting their strategies in time, and increasing export orders, but the domestic market still makes them headache. "Compared with previous years, exports will be reduced by about 15% this year (2014). This is the case in the entire digital printing and dyeing industry." Lu manager, a local dyeing and printing company, told reporters. "The global economy is down, and the international market is not very good. The purchase amount of the same color customer decreased significantly. In addition to orders, costs are still rising and profits are becoming thinner. As far as printing and dyeing industry is concerned, on the one hand, prices of materials (dyes) are rising continuously, and on the other hand, other costs are also increasing. For example, in terms of energy, we used coal before, and now we start using natural gas. The price is obviously higher. In environmental protection, the introduction of sewage purification equipment also needs a lot of money. "
