Recently, the supply of 300T pongee gray fabric has been tight, and at the same time, prices have also risen.
The market is still in the off-season, and 300T pongee is a very conventional gray fabric produced by many manufacturers. Why is there a sudden shortage of supply? With this question in mind, the editor conducted market research and then understood the actual situation.
The purchase price is lower than the market selling price
In fact, the tight supply of 300T pongee gray fabric is not caused by insufficient supply. But the current purchase price of traders is lower than the factory cost price, and manufacturers are unwilling to sell at a loss, so it is difficult to find low-priced 300T pongee gray fabric! Since July, as international crude oil has continued to rise, polyester raw materials such as polyester filament have also followed suit. According to the current raw material prices, the cost price for manufacturers to produce 300T pongee gray fabric is 1.65 yuan/meter. The traders’ purchasing price is only 1.4 yuan/meter, and no one is willing to do a business with a loss of 0.25 yuan/meter. At the price of 1.4 yuan/meter, it is possible that only a few manufacturers will bear the pain to make money, but the quantity will not be very large, and it will only meet the burning needs. As a result, for traders looking to purchase 300T pongee gray fabric, the supply of this gray fabric appears to be tight.
At present, the normal selling price of 300T Chunya textile factory is around 1.7 yuan/meter to 1.8 yuan/meter, and the profit is also very transparent, only 0.05 yuan/meter to 0.15 yuan/meter. As the raw materials continue to rise, the price is still rising. room for improvement. At a price of 1.4 yuan/meter, cloth is indeed hard to find!
The manufacturer is reluctant to sell the goods and is reluctant to sell them.
The traders who are currently looking to buy are not actually receiving orders for 300T pongee fabrics, but are preparing stocks for the “Golden Nine and Silver Ten”. It is currently the off-season, and with insufficient orders, traders are certain that weaving manufacturers will sell at low prices in order to cash in. But I never expected that polyester raw materials continued to rise, and some manufacturers not only did not sell at low prices, but also raised their prices. Even though there is a lot of inventory in the market for this type of conventional gray fabric, and the cost may be less than 1.4 yuan/meter, the raw materials are still on a rising trend, and the peak season in the second half of the year will soon usher in, and manufacturers are unwilling to sell at low prices. Instead, we are waiting for a good price during the peak season.

The sales volume of pongee has not been bad this year. As the most conventional type of fabric, demand has always existed. The second half of the year is mainly the season for autumn and winter fabric production, and the demand for 300T pongee is the largest. Even if the current inventory is too high, manufacturers are not worried about selling, and there is no need to sell goods at a loss. This is also a judgment by textile people about the market situation and the direction of raw materials in the second half of the year. They are certain that demand will increase and the price of gray fabrics will also rise.
Although the traders’ price reduction seems a bit excessive, they are also sad because the sandwich boards are sandwiched in the middle. They were supposed to make some profit from the price difference, but it is really hard to make money nowadays. Fabric customers are constantly lowering prices, and all they can do is lower prices from manufacturers. If manufacturers are unwilling to sell at low prices, they may also lose orders. Therefore, buying gray fabrics at low prices is also out of helplessness.
Of course, not all traders are currently stocking up, there are also actual orders placed. Entering August, the market shipments have improved slightly, and many conventional varieties of gray fabrics have become loose. Based on the experience of previous years, August is supposed to be a transitional stage when the off-season is gradually out of the off-season and slowly moves towards the peak season. The market conditions in the second half of the year are mostly divided into two stages, one stage is from September to October, and the other stage is from December to before the Spring Festival. Then according to these two time periods, it will now enter the time period when market goods arrive.
