Why is the sales volume average but the looms are at full capacity? What are the textile bosses thinking?
The epidemic broke out again in Beijing in mid-June, which once again made everyone “fearful” and began to stock up on masks. The textile market was no exception. Will the low-end fabrics “polyester taffeta and pongee” that can be used as protective clothing start to sell like hotcakes again?
Think of it as a dream, only to realize it was hype when you woke up!
Unexpected: Polyester taffeta and pongee suddenly sold well
“Fabrics such as polyester taffeta and pongee are non-degradable and will not be decomposed after being buried in the ground for decades. The current hot sales are just everyone’s hype. This wave of popularity will not last long. “.” A trader in Shengze area once told the editor.
However, the last hot sale of polyester taffeta and pongee did allow many textile bosses to clear a wave of inventory, “We previously cleared 190T polyester taffeta A lot of inventory has been lost, and now there are about 10,000 to 20,000 meters left in the factory, but basically no one wants it now,” said a textile boss who specializes in polyester taffeta.
Indeed, it can be seen from the results of this survey that there are very few orders for such products in the market now. Most textile bosses believe that the previous hot sales It was just a hype. Now it has lost its previous popularity, the inventory is even more unsaleable, and no one may care about the low price!
However, when the sales of conventional fabrics are slow and there are no hot-selling fabrics, a niche fabric is eye-catching!
Surprise: this niche fabric In the hot sale
Autumn and winter fabrics will start to become active in the second half of the year. This is not the surprise that the first half of the year did not bring to everyone. The second half of the year will bring everyone Present!
“Our recent business has been much better than last month, and it is not much different from the same period last year. Because our fabric is more expensive, the general quantity is not It is particularly large, but compared to other fabrics, it is already very good. I think our market will get better and better in the second half of the year.” said Mr. Li, who specializes in channel fabrics.
I believe everyone is familiar with the channel Cloth should be familiar to you. It is an autumn and winter fabric, mainly used for the production of down jackets. It is precisely because the second half of the year is the world of autumn and winter fabrics that this fabric begins to “shine”. Mr. Li said: “The release paper fabric is particularly outstanding. We have received orders for 10,000 meters since June. Our finishing plant machines are now fully operational. They were not fully operational in May. Sales in the future should be better than last year.” .”
There are still relatively few manufacturers of this type of fabric in the Shengze area, so not many people know about it. This year, due to the epidemic, everyone is idle. There are more and more people going to the market, and the fabrics are becoming more popular, so the situation this year is much better than last year.
Although the popularity of this fabric is rising, the sales of other fabrics are still tepid…
Doubt: The order volume has dropped, but the machine is fully operational?
“Overseas epidemics have not been effectively controlled, demand has picked up slowly, and factory inventories have been rising…”
“In good times, it was only tens of thousands of meters. Foreign trade orders were small and gray fabrics could not be sold. Now there is too much competition…”
The above is a wave of complaints from two textile bosses about the current market conditions. Indeed, in June, the small off-season, the order volume began to decline at a speed visible to the naked eye. Through this survey, many textile bosses said that the current order volume is compared with There were much fewer in April and May, but what puzzles the editor is why many weaving mills are running their machines at full capacity even when the order volume is not satisfactory?
Facing this problem, the editor understands it like this Yes, although it is the off-season, at least the market is moving. Mr. Wu, who owns 318 looms, said: “The market situation is better now than in March and April. At least there is still a little movement of goods. No products can be sold.”
Both domestic and foreign trade were basically stagnant in March and April, and only started to show signs of improvement in late April. There has been an improvement. Orders have indeed decreased compared to May, but they have not stagnated. Textile bosses are always ready to place orders, so it is understandable that there is no reduction in production.
Disasterconsumption. However, some textile bosses believe that the market will gradually improve after the off-season of July and August, because customers have begun to report that the situation in Europe has improved. The editor believes that based on the market situation in May, I believe that the textile market will still usher in ” “Gold nine, silver ten”, please stay tuned!
